My boyfriend of 5 years and soon to be husband is addicted to porn. He isn't an "all nighter" any longer but because he works from home he has so much more access. Please someone tell me what is normal porn usage and what isn't. Of course he says that I blow it out or porportion but what 'addict' wouldn't say something like that?? I'm lost and really need someone's advice. I am a very open minded person and that is why I'm so confused by this.
We have a good sex life but he can not stand to go a week day without looking at porn, and this includes questionable things.
Someone please help me!!

Like any addiction (and IT IS AN ADDICTION!!)the person doing it sees it AS NORMAL..but is not. If you can, hold off and tell him is either PORNO OR YOU..and stick to his answer (it may be painful)GOOD LUCK AND MAY GOD BLESS YOU AND HELP U IN THIS LIFETIME DECISION

Only the two of you can decide what works and is right for your relationship. But i do think it seems like you are having a problem with this. I was in a similar situation myself,...fiance was running his own computer buisness,....so he had a lot of trouble with his addiction. Knowing what i do now, i would hold off on a wedding and seek couples counciling.
hope this is helpful
I've been a love and sex addict my whole adult life and recovering for 8 years. This particular addiction is REALLY hard to get a handle on because you can't just quit, like alcoholics try to do. People strive for a "healthy" sexual life with their partner.
So, my advice to you is to encourage him to attend SAA meetings (like Alcoholics Anonymous) in your area. If you're devoted to him, find out if there's a support group for you, too. (Often times, there are, just like Al-Anon.)
If he refuses to get help in a support group, reconsider your devotion to him. I promise that addiction gets much worse before it gets better if the addict is unwilling to get help. Good luck to you.
I do believe in confronting him with this and how it makes you feel. From what you've described, he has a serious addiction and needs help, in some form. If he's willing to get it, great. If not, then you have some hard decisions to make. Until it's dealt with, I would not recommend marriage at all.
If I can help in any way, please let me know. I am a recovering addict 1 year clean after 28 years of porn and sex addiction, so I understand this addiction well. My wife is also on this site (diannebishop) and would be glad to talk with you about it and what she has been through with my SA.
Also, you did not define questionable. But if it is child porn, you may also be liable for prosecution if materials are found where you live.
