If someone is addicted to it, the need will continue. Studies have shown that porn is a form of super-stimulation, the kind of stimulation you don't get from one-on-one sex.
How is your sex life, is it suffering because of it? Is there any insecurity on your part? Do you feel you need to control him? There are many questions you need to ask yourself and each other in honest conversation. Would he or both of you be willing to talk to a professional?
Thanks for the response. I can answer some of those questions. Our sex life is great, and I don't believe is lacking anything. Although, it makes me feel that maybe it is, if he's having to go beyond me for simulation. There is some insecurity on my part CAUSED BY his looking at porn. I constantly compare myself to the guys I see on his tumblr. I don't feel any need to control him. Which is why I haven't said anything more to him about it. We are both very respectful of each other's freedom. I would be willing to talk to a professional. I am not sure that it is an addiction or just like..a curiosity. I guess what worries me most is that before me, he has always been in open relationships, so it makes me wonder if only being with me is not enough for him (even though he says it is)
