Some people are ignorant about this because of the desire to trust their partner unconditionally. Many times, the assumption is that a partner will be aware that watching porn beyond a quick glance of the Playboy Magazine is detrimental to a relationship. In fact, it could be classified as an affair or cheating. The ignorance, in combination with the extent that a porn fanatic will go to conceal erotica, can leave the other partner not knowing about it for months and up to several years. On the other hand, there are some partners that use porn to enhance their relationship. If that is the case, then it is quite OK to include a different forms of erotica into your sex life. In fact, porn can be introduced as long as both parties are participants and have agreed to do so.

Where will that partner get their sexual needs met, if the other partner is not doing so?

That is one of the questions that will be answered, but first is finding out how to tell if one partner has an addiction to porn.

Lack of interest in intimacy is one initial sign that you should notice right away. If your partner always showed affection openly and is no longer doing so, it is time to take notice. A partner who prefers to watch erotica as a means of sexual pleasure instead of intimacy with the other partner is asking for trouble with the relationship. The opposite is true. if a partner is overly aggressive during intimacy and wants more than what you have to offer, there may be cause for concern, especially if it occurs more times than not. In addition, you could make the same point, if the partner is asking the other to do things in the bedroom that are uncomfortable. Look for these initial signs and start sleuthing around.

When one partner needs to be stimulated before an encounter in the bedroom, this is normal. However, when it goes beyond the scope of mutual agreement, then there is a problem. Your partner may be watching

too much erotica

Porn addiction will escalate, if there are issues in the bedroom. The addict will continue to watch porn, hoping to get escape and get satisfaction from it, if there are problems in the bedroom. He will become desensitized to any other forms of satisfaction and pleasure because of not wanting to deal with the bedroom issues. The actual intercourse with you will no longer be desired because of those problems and confrontation is inevitable. He will be hiding behind his addiction, having self pity and hoping that the problem will just go away. You have to be the instigator in directly confronting his addiction problem.

There are other clear signs of porn addiction that are blatant and visible. A partner who becomes physically and verbally aggressive during and before intimacy should be evaluated. A partner with unrealistic fantasies that are hard for the other partner to fulfill is either demanding or a

porn addict.

When a partner spends a considerable amount of time on the Internet, you have to wonder what is being done for so long and how it could affect your relationship. Someone with a propensity for porn will suddenly have a passion for technology, even if that was not the case before. Most porn addicts will usually use the Internet at night or after everyone else has gone to bed. It will be used during the day, if he is alone. If a partner withdraws to a room to be alone for hours, you should question it. In fact, if you attempt to question his motives, he may get angry and demand you to leave him alone. He may have a password lock on his computer so that you cannot search it when he is not present. However, there may be one way to find out. Most porn sites are not FREE. If they are initially free, it would only be for a few months, after which, the member has to start paying. If you have access to your bank account, you can check the statement each month to see whether there is an unusual credit that you know nothing about. This is the first place to start. If your partner is not savvy enough to put a password on his laptop, phone or computer, then you can go in and check the browser for the Internet history. If he has not deleted the history, you will be able to tell the websites that he has visited. If the Internet history has been erased, then you know he is trying to hide something from you and secretly covering his tracks. He may also feel that what he is doing is nobody's business and could be defiant about it, so much, that he keeps digging a deeper hole for himself. He may be hanging on to that false sense of security.

A person with porn addiction will often find as many excuses to be alone for the purpose of watching erotica. If it means lying to the other partner, that will be the ultimate choice. He may begin to excuse himself from family gatherings. He may be unable to explain absences from other important events. He may not be able to account for how he spends his time, if asked. He will have little or no interest to be around people. He may suddenly start to nitpick at everything.

When someone is involved with porn, it is safe to say that person will be withdrawn emotionally. He may be distant and numb, starting to lose interest in the real world of relationships. He will be more antisocial and reclusive. Life for both of you will not be the same because of this. He does not mind the change, but it will affect your relationship in such a way to make you unhappy and dissatisfied, but he will be happy with what he is doing. He may express bursts of angry episodes when he cannot retreat to his lonely space so he can get online. There will be no remorse or regret at the time of the indulgence in porn addiction. However, after a while, you will begin to experience the obvious neglect and emotional distress because of not knowing exactly what to do. This is when you have to look for help outside of the relationship.

The other partner without the porn addiction should go ahead and seek professional help for the addicted partner. This should be done as soon as the addiction is discovered. Seeking help will only serve to mend the relationship and get you both on the same page again. It will allow the addicted individual to change his mindset and use his energy for more positive things.
