    When is Porn classed as an addiction?
    So I'd like to hear some views and what people define as a porn addiction, so we know addiction itself is anything in excess and is a dependency right?
    Well what a some signs your partner is addicted to porn?
    How do tell?
    Do you have a right to feel hurt if they prefer it to you?
    Is it watching it everyday, more than once a day, all day, a few times a week?
    Preferring porn to the real thing?
    How to talk to them about it? Is it OK if they love you?
    How do you deal with it?
    Do you leave them or help them?
    Will they ever change?
    Is there anything really wrong with them if they are addicted to it?
    How do you act when you bust them in the act?
    Is it a addiction when you hide it?
    Or embarrassed about it?

    I can't think of anymore questions but feel free to throw it out there...
    And just to add we are talking about porn addiction and what is a porn addiction not just now and then use, because we should all know there is nothing wrong with that... its your personal time, quick easy carefree relief ;)

    I did some research on the topic and found a definition that I think is a good indication of whether a person has a "porn addiction".

    If a person, on the first try, cannot do without porn for thirty straight days, then, that person has a problem. I got this definitio off a website that helps men who want to break their relationship with porn.

    Anyway, coming from a family, a disfunctional family, I highly recomment that an individual in a relationship with another who is addicted to anything, alcohol, drugs, porn, gambling... whatever it is, just get out of that relationship. It will *never* be worth it to waste time, and YOUTH with an addict. All you do is waste your youth on a problem. My opinion.

    See, you are already preoccuied with problems instead of living and being a happy person. :)

    Best wishes to you, :)
