Boyfriend looks at porn and I feel insecure about it.
Question Posted Monday May 6 2013, 3:49 pm
Iv been dating my boyfriend for over a year &i am head over heels in love with him. I know this is immature and annoying to get anxiety over but everytime he watches porn I get such anxiety and mad at him. I try to hide it as best as I can. I know he should be allowed to do whatever and I don't want to control him in ANYWAY or tell him what he can or can't do but it makes me feel so bad. He never calls me pretty or gives me compliments so I get nervous when he's looking at other beautiful girls. If I told him I know he'd be mad I'm trying to tell him what to do. I feel bad for feeling this way but I can't help it. What should I do? Any advice is appreciated! (: thanks!!!
I have one friend who watches porn and his girlfriend doesn't mind.
My boyfriend doesn't watch porn because I don't like it.
It's not necessarily a bad thing to watch porn, but it's more of a preference.
It's like other things that can cause problems in relationships. Smoking, drinking, ect.
You have to sit down and talk to him. Talk to him calmly and don't start talking to him in an accusing tone, if that makes sense. In other words, don't point fingers.
Tell him that him watching porn is affecting you because it makes you feel uncomfortable. Tell him that you aren't trying to control him but this is making you feel bad.
Now, if he loves you, he shouldn't get mad over this. These kinds of things need to be discussed in a relationship. It can make you resent him and it could eventually end the relationship.
There has to be compromise, or else you're not going to be happy. [ lightoftruth's advice column | Ask lightoftruth A Question ]

I mean maybe he does not realize it bothers you . i would feel the same way if my boyfriend was looking at porn and by the he shouldn't be allowed to do whatever he wants. It's not controlling him telling him how you feel and if he doesn't listen to you when you tell him how you feel and keeps looking at the porn . i Suggest you break up with him because if he doesn't listen to you he doesn't respect you .
