Default My wife is addicted to porn.

Actually she is not. But I got you to look. I think this is going to be a short thread.

Anybody know of a situation where the wife had a porn problem that was affecting the marriage and her life.

Just curious.

Not very funny. Its an insult to us that do have a spouse that had a problem with porn. Its very degrading and causes alot of heartache.

Sorry, I did not intend to insult anybody.

I just wanted to know if this was just mostly a guy thing.

On this site I learned a lot of things I did not know before. Reading different threads just had me thinking about how men and women react to different things.

If there are not any serious posts soon on the subject I will delete this thread.

I apologize

It's just the women's porn is called "Romance novels."

I wouldn't really call romance novels a woman's version of porn, not that I've read many

Why are you curious about this anyway? wishful thinking maybe, like another poster said, it's a very serious issue than can destroy marriages.

Romance novels are totally a woman's porn, we are more emotional than visual, so a story captivates us and then the next thing you know we are drooling over "his throbbing..." you get the idea....

And I've known a LOT of women who were hopelessly addicted to romance novels.

Do women find romance novels sexually stimulating? I never did. Sure, they might fuel "romantic fantasies," but to me, that is something entirely different from a sexual fantasy.

Nothing wrong with trying to figure out the opposite sex. I try to figure other people out to understand myself and other situations in general.

Does anybody else think I should delete this thread?

I recall just one thread on TAM about a husband concerned over his wifes porn addiction... He never did come back with updates so Im not sure how it went.

There have been a small number of threads from women who state their husbands had a problem with their use of porn when husband was away. I suppose its possible that some of them had issues with pornography and didnt know it.

So, yeah, women can deffinately become addicted to pornography.

I forgot about romance novels. I think there is a point about it being kind of a emotional porn for women. Except it is more acceptable.

I remember they were in my high school library. Girls would always read them during study hall.

One time I looked over a girls shoulder to see what she was reading. I was shocked. I started to read out loud what I was seeing and her face turned bright red.

I can see somebody enter a fantasy land over them.

Seriously.. should I delete this thread? I do not mean to offend.

If anybody has read my other two threads you know why I am here.

For dinner we were cooking on the grill. I got done with the steaks. My wife started on the chicken.

She was standing at the grill. I decided to come up from behind her a just give her a little nibble on her neck. She responded by bending over to avoid me. I guess it was more appealing to her to get her face burned on the grill than have me touch her in romantic way.

So I was thinking, I have tried everything with this woman. Then I thought about this site and then this page. I realized hey, I never seen her read any of those romantic novels. Maybe I should just load one on her e-book and see what happens.

What the heck, I tried everything else.

I hope you can appreciate the way I think. The humor is the way I cope at times. I may be crazy but I am trying not to go insane.
