While I haven't really been successful with quitting up until the three digit mark, I've been getting consistently higher in terms of gaps between relapses. 1. One thing that I realize as of now is that a huge factor of porn addiction is wanting multiple partners, or wanting as many as possible. The average consumer doesn't watch one video with the same people. They usually watch multiple videos with different people in each video. Before the internet, the average person did not become sexually stimulated to multiple people, let alone other people having sex. This is why we're seeing a slow rejection in society towards monogamy and vanilla sex. People are becoming slowly desensitized to ideas that they can't see, hear, smell, taste or touch. 2. Porn consumption in general, like it or not, contributes to the facilitation of sex crimes and degeneracy, regardless of age, sex, race, etc. In porn, we do not see the people having sex as human, in the same way men do not see hookers as human, whether they solicit or not. This is not good for the consumer, nor the people in it, and everyone in between. This is part of how porn goes against the idea of love, and I doubt it ends there. I just wanted to share my thoughts on this, and thanks for doing what you're doing. I think a common theme of these past years is that we can't trust the rich, we have to stick together and advocate for each other regardless of whatever agendas (including the porn industry) are against us and using us.

What are the 4 habits of an online sexual relationships coach? 1) Ability to oversimplify a very complicated issue, such as there are certain men who can't find partners because of problematic female-attraction traits, 2) even as a female who probably has had more than one boyfriend, she does not understand what women are attracted to in men, 3) not be able to admit that men are skewed on a range of 1 to 10 in terms of physical attractiveness, charisma, confidence, and charm, 4) and to understand that online porn is just a giant extension of playboy, Penthouse, Hustler and many other pre-internet sources of porn which many married men secretly bought because they were tired of boring, no longer attractive wives.

Honestly, I used to be on an emotional intelligence level of 10. Then I met my now husband who's been addicted to porn for over 4 decades. I didn't know about it until 6 weeks ago. Over the period of 6 years of marriage with lies and deceit I am still at a high emotional intelligence level but my emotional strength level is approximately at -10. I'm praying that my husband will level up on his journey to recovery...

Being angry 😠 and emotionally-exhausting around him is only adding fuel to the fire, so what can you do to douse the fire? Explore those ways and gradually implement those ways, not because you will always feel like it, but because it is right. I acknowledge you have been deeply hurt, but remember to overcome evil with good.
In one of your prior videos you indicated that you had videos or programs that addressed the betrayal trauma we partners experience when we find out about the porn addiction. I have searched but can't locate it. Could you please post the link here? Thank you. I'm really struggling right now.

Quite a few women want a partner without a libido... in fact, my previous 'GF' responded to my half-joking line 'I have a non-medicated naturally functioning libido' with "well that could be an issue because I don't want any of that". I had lots of female friends in my 20s and early 30s who accepted me because I could be trusted to keep my sexuality to myself if I wasn't truly asexual. I've stated in past profiles my willingness to accept asexual relationships with the right woman... but am again willing to consider that these are not emotionally mature women and that aversion to even a hug indicates an unprocessed trauma- although there is such a high proportion of available women with profiles who indicate that they would rather maybe indulge in their own self-indulgence habits while denying that they have any interest in sex.

Great way to put it, on a scale like that! oh man.. haha that part when you said "what can I do now to help you to feel better" triggered me. I remember my ex gf said that to me when I was very emotional, and she was not. All I wanted from her was an emotional reaction in that moment and she pulled out that emotionless cut and dry "what can i do to make you feel better"... i couldnt handle it lol. When you are feeling THAT bad, trying to tell someone what to do to help you hurts more sometimes, because that means that they are not taking action to help you from their own sense of care for you.

Trish and Rick:. I haven't said anything, but I guess it's just like Fox News. First you have six kids, today you have five. You recommend abstinence, then healthy sexuality. I guess it's how the game is played, but I have to believe you're helping me. I closed a chapter today with my Mom. I know so many people who are afraid for people to get a look at. My Aunt says I will " see more of her than I want". A professor in California says "people see that garbage and they don't come back". I guess I realized, that's me too. Marilyn, a noticable well endowed company counselor who first saw me in California, immediately sent me to a man when I read an angry letter to my grandmother, who was also well endowed. Carolyn, back in Michigan said I was not dangerous, yet when I innocently (subconsciously?) told her I had a room because I had worked all night and hadn't slept and wanted to rest before driving home, I could see her imagination kick in. I guess women can't stand when they are recognized that way. Not that it means something has to happen, I really don't understand it. And, it may be an excuse. It may be an excuse for her, it may be an excuse for me. I've just always wondered where the help was coming from? Somebody seems good at it.

Even after my illness had blossomed in California (I went back home to Michigan 10 years after arriving in California), and I had said just vile, terrible things to her husband. He died, but on my way back to Michigan later, she would still look me in the eye. She still loved me. It was still there. I was still special. Her love was unwavering. Where else could I find that? But, her breasts? Yeah, back after losing my job at Lockheed and ending up with my first counselor ( a counselor a few months out of counseling school), we were talking about my grandparents and how supposedly, that fucked everybody up. I was going to write a letter to my grandparents saying I now understood things a little better, but mentioned “women and their big titties”. Marilyn, the counselor’s breasts were also well above average. The letter didn’t say grandmother, the letter didn’t say my counselor or Marilyn, just women with big titties. Well, that was enough for Marilyn to immediately get me out of there to spend a more serious amount of time with Jeff, whom you’ve probably heard me talk about. But, yeah, and what was really disappointing was when I found her walking through the halls of Lockheed a few months later because I liked Jeff and thought things were going well for me. But, she just coldly walked along, her arms crossed in front of her. Apparently I was now a stranger. She didn’t like me anymore. I wasn’t a “joy”. That story happens to me a lot. John.
