Thank goodness for men who like sex

237. I think porn is like any other fantasy, if you indulge too much, it does detract from real life.

Some people might not watch porn, but might, say, fantasize about their favorite movie star a little too much. Possibly it's just a way of avoiding real life rather than an illness or addiction. Because let's face it, real life is hard and lonely sometimes. And sometimes it's easier to fantasize about some other life than it is to change the one you are in.

Obviously, this is a hot-button issue, but I do think you might be largely correct. Any sort of compulsive behavior, whether it's porn or video games can ruin a relationship. But it seems the issue is really the relationship and whatever problems are there than with whatever the other person is obsessed with.

If they don't hear your concerns and take action, then I think you (speaking generally, I'm not assuming you are talking about yourself) are completely justified in ending a relationship. No man or woman should play second fiddle to escapist fantasy, whatever it might be. Nor should they "put up" with bad sex because their partner is lost in some fantasy world.
