i know everyone here knows porn is bad and has so many side effects (on you and your partner) but the media still seems to think of it as “no big deal” or “just what they do” and i cant wrap my head around that. i really hope some movement or something happens where people realize the effect porn has on people and relationships. i know my boundary is valid but sometimes i feel crazy
for hating it as much as i do. just because i see so many people talking about how they watch it and so does their partner. most people just seem so unaffected by it i feel crazy for how much i despise it. how does this not make everyone sick to their stomachs???

i was in an abusive relationship from 12-18 years old. I’m now 19 which i know is young. my ex had a awful relationship with porn and would compare me to these beautiful women all the time during my developmental years. i want to feel beautiful but no matter how many affirmations i tell myself ill never fully believe it. any advice is welcome please be kind!

hi! ever since i found out what he had been doing i find it hard to feel confident in my body. i have always been a very skinny girl and he was watching thick girls and has a thing for ass which i do not have. i feel uncomfortable sometimes when he says i’m sexy because how could he believe that when his search history for MONTHS was filled with these women. he has since stopped (since around December) and hasn’t watched it since but the thought of him going back makes my stomach hurt. i just want to be enough for him, i’m hyper sexual and want him all the time.why does he need these women?

I caught my boyfriend watching porn 6 months ago now. I caught him through reddit and twitter. This group has been so helpful to me in not being alone but every time i come on here it reminds me of what he was watching. I hope to someday forget about the women he watched, i look them up often.
