Why do some married men prefer porn over their wives?

- Ok that's not always the case, for me when I was married I would come home I would be horny she would be at work, or would be the weekend she was at work I would be horny so I can watch p*** masturbate and then with it
I so this is what I see with you guys. first of all you're still really young I mean teenager really, is your husband getting a beer belly, does he just want to sit around and watch TV it really is not motivated, it means that he's out of shape it means that he's being lazy so he would rather watch p*** sit still can get off, to be honest he's being selfish is only thinking of himself.. he has learned that it is easier to sit there and watch p*** then to get up off his butt you have a good workout make love session with you that's pretty sad especially a to z age somehow you need to get his ass back in shape if you can get him back in shape believe me to start bouncing off of you at night time again but it's just too much of a workout for him so he's taking the easy way out0|00|0Is this still revelant?

- Usually, after a period of 3-4 years, the honeymoon period is fading away because couples know their partner inside out and want (or need) to try out something new.
There are a lot of factors that could be the cause of his behavior, one of which is stress at work or at home. Confinement will result in more divorces in the future because people are obliged to be with each other when they need a break from a 24/7 presence.
Also, at age 37, he may have started his mid-life crisis or have the beginning of andropause where regular sexual intercourse with the same partner is becoming more of a chore than pleasure.
Fact is that he is cheating on you emotionally since he manipulates his body, probably thinking of other women rather than you when doing it.
If counseling is not an issue for him, then I suggest you prepare a list of topics you feel both of you have an issue with and besides each item, you bring a reply that you think would help the situation. Then ask him to do a similar list, independent from yours, and also to write down how he sees improvement.
Then you sit together and attempt to find a consensus, bearing in mind that none of you should be angry or upset. That would falsify the outcome and rather than to help, this would only make things worse. Also, trying to impose one's view onto the other is not the right solution because the one or the other is under pressure to act on that imposition. Good luck.0|10|0Is this still revelant?I don't want to interfere in your marriage because it is none of my business but a threesome bears more dangers than it solves problems. Think of all that can go wrong from the extremely high risk of STD/STI, to the potential physical cheating in addition to the emotional one and to the risk of him having feelings for the other person.
That would not only be totally counterproductive but it would also kill you emotionally and then you would start this downward spiral into a possible depression.- Show All Show Less
I only see that he may have some health issues related to work or even physical issues that can cause low libido. That could include low testosterone, prescription medicines, too little or too much exercise, and alcohol and drug use.
Psychological issues can include depression, stress, and problems in your relationship. But without him agreeing to see a specialist, there is not much you can do to remedy the situation.
The next danger around the corner is that you may seek elsewhere what you cannot find at home. How would he react to that option?Then you have to place him in front of facts. Either
1. We fix the issue together and go and seek professional help or
2. You have to take my needs into consideration and allow me to do something about it.
I specifically use the term "allow" because that indicates that you are seeking for his approval.
- men can soon get tired of the same things, like women we need things to spice things up, have you tried wear sexy things around,0|00|0Is this still revelant?
yes but men still like to see other women doing things, I bet and lets ask the men,
if your wife partner of a few years was sat at two different seat well apart and were crossing their legs and showing their knickers occasional which would draw your attention

- A lot of the time it's just stress from life that gets people down and they don't try so hard to show their partner they want sex, even though they do.
In my last relationship, this is what happened. She wanted sex all the time, but she wouldn't try and tease me or build up to sex. It felt like she just expected me to take her right then and there. But because she was always anxious about work and life, she seemed to be "emotional" (and I am not making that up, she has anxiety and depression) and I didn't want to be like "oh it's okay you won't get fired... now let's have sex." That would just be fucked up, and make me look like a typical man and I hate that.
So then I would just resort to porn and yes I would masturbate to it every time.0|00|0Is this still revelant?I respect your attempts. I wish I had that when I was in a relationship.
Have you tried jumping on his lap and kissing him regardless of what he is doing?- Asker4 d
Yes I have and sadly, he says "Really? Right now? Can't this wait until later? I'm watching TV babe."

142- Your husband may be in a rut and may see you more as a mother to the children rather than someone to be romantic with. Porn could be an escape for him or it could be an addiction. Could he be having an affair? I suggest telling him you would like the two of you to work together on rekindling the passion. You've probably worked through other challenges in the marriage, so this should be no different. If it's difficult for the two of you to openly discuss this sort of thing, you may want to suggest going for couple's counselling.0|00|0
- It's because porn is not a neutral thing. Despite what the culture is screaming, porn is destructive and addictive. It literally rewires your brain to get turned on by the porn and not by a real-life woman. Your husband has a psychological and physical problem that he is dealing with, and he needs help.
There's a lot of resources online and I think you need to start educating yourself before you ever talk to him. You need to know how to bring this up, how to discuss it, how to support him through it. He needs to be able to be shown that it actually is a problem and you need to know how to do that0|00|0 - My guess is that it's probably a convenience thing. Masturbating is quicker, and stress free. I should say that I'm not married. But, I know that the reason I prefer porn over real women is because the frustration, stress, attitude, cost, and general heartache of dealing with real women isn't worth the meh sexual performance she's likely to give. With porn, it's free and I can get pretty much exactly what I need in that moment. It's really sad that I'm even thinking this way, but there's nothing complicated about porn. It's tough to justify dealing with real women when the aggravation is so high.0|00|0
To me that sounds like a stress or sexual satisfaction thing. There's something that isn't sitting well with him, and he might not even be good enough touch with himself to know what that is. It's probably NOT a you problem, so just take a bit of comfort in that. I think you need to sit down with him and really have a genuinely conversation about what's going on, because sex is always the first thing to go when the communication goes. You have valid sexual needs that aren't being satisfied, but you can't approach this conversation from that standpoint. You have to say "okay, what can I do, as your wife, to prevent this external thing from impacting our bedroom?" Don't be pushy, but also don't be passive either. Because what you are feeling is a result of the disconnect that he's feeling and it's very real.

- He's probably addicted. Watching porn everyday is excessive and damaging to the brain.
You should talk to him about him possibly being addicted and taking action to stop his porn habit.
You have to have a line, at which point do you think you're willing to walk out and leave with your kids?
Whatever point that is, verbalize it to him. That should serve as a sort of warning, if he continues take it up a notch, grab your kids and stay at a relative for a while and return on the condition that he seeks help.0|10|0Well you have to have a line. If you don't have a line he's going to continue indefinitely and you'll still be asking this question 10, 20 years from now.
You have the power to inspire change in him, berating him and asking him hasn't worked, time to take it up a notch or suffer in silence.
- Because Girls in porn are doing everything, because porn doesn't want to be pleased too, because you can watch porn Girls that Look exactly like you want it and the wife is Always the same person, becaus it's not awkward to watch what you like and some things are realy kinky and it's awkward to ask the wife for that, because porn doesn't get old, has no headage and Always want to be watched, because porn doesn't want you to last as long as possible, porn isn't Jealous, If something at a porn movie doesn't fit your expectations you can choose another one,...0|00|0
- Well my wife barely wants to do more than cuddle anymore, but that doesn't seem like your situation. If he is still affectionate to you and enjoys being around you, and you are both happy, he probably just knows how to pleasure himself more than you do. Have you asked him about it? Not with a complaining or nagging tone, but with genuine curiosity and affection.0|00|0
- There are billions of porn videos and genres out there, you can basically find anything you could want to. The bedroom gets boring if it's the same thing, all the time. Find out what kind of porn he likes and you should suggest that you do it together0|00|0
- Seems to me, that he has replaced you with a computer. You say you’ve been married 11 years. with
Children as well? Please don’t answer! But has your sex life as in what you DO been the same for
11 years too? If so, or not for that matter a "Change up" may just do the trick! Find out what he’s been watching on the computer. Go from there.0|00|0 - Maybe because you've become routine and boring? Your vagina is like having sex with a dead mans hand?
Seriously. if you feel he has a problem, then talk to him. Don't just rely on strangers for personal issue resolution.0|00|0 - Because porn actresses don't bitch like girlfriends/wives do. They don't say "oh, that's for exit only" when we wanna do them in their ass, or they don't say "oh, feet are gross" when we wanna satisfy our foot-fetish with them, or they don't say "oh, you're gross" if we wanna cum on their face... etc. etc.0|00|0

- Tough question since I lost interest in sex with my wife, also, but mainly because she did not orgasm with me and claimed she did not masturbate either. I would see a good marriage counselor (women) and get her input.0|00|0
- Anonymous2 dI don’t watch porn unless I’m going to masturbate but if I was married and they were always there for me for that I wouldn’t watch porn. I’m thinking he feels it’s too much like work to have sex and maybe it’s just boring. Maybe try initiating and taking charge in the bed0|00|0
- You are what is commonly called a 'porn-widow'. He would rather jerk off to porn than be with his lovely wife.
Yes, you have a porn-addict as a husband. Sick, depraved, ignorant, and delusional.
What are you going to do to fix it?0|00|0- Asker2 d
I have 2 choices. I'm gonna have to get over it or leave him. He won't admit that he has a problem and won't go to marriage counseling with me or do anything about his problem. He tells me that he isn't hurting anybody and nothing is wrong with what he is doing. I'm tired of begging for his time and attention. 2 months ago we were have sex 3 or 4 times a week. Now I'm lucky if I can get some 1 time a week. I'm just at a loss at what to do because I do love my husband.
That's a tough situation. And yes, he's addicted, so the first step in recovery is admitting he has a problem.
This is what I know as the solution...
You sit him down for an adult conversation. You explain that jerking off to porn when you have a perfectly suitable wife at hand is not only unacceptable, but depraved and sick. You tell him you'll make a deal with him... he stops with the porn and makes you his sole outlet for sex. If he wants to get his rocks off he comes to you. You promise to never say 'no'. A quickie, a bj, a handy, whatever it takes - but YOU become his sexual outlet.
Or you're leaving him. You'll soon find out what his priorities are. And you have to be willing to actually leave. At some point he'll either wake up and smell the roses, or he'll resign himself to jerking off instead of being married.
- Anonymous4 dThis may sound harsh and don't take it the wrong way.
Married for 11 years with 2 kids, your husband sees you as a wife and the mother of his kids. He's probably not seeing you as attractive ( in a sexual sense) anymore. Some people by nature get too comfortable in relationships and the sparks go. So don't be the mom or wife around him , be the woman he dated.
* This goes for men too0|00|0 - Its an addiction. They are stuck in fantasy world. Guys love how females look. Men are so more visual than women are. When we see what we like we get hooked.
Some guys use it to self medicate themselves.0|00|0 - I have no idea why he would like porn over the real thing. I would suggest offering to watch porn with him and offer him a handjob while you two watch. That way, it is something you can do together. Good luck.0|00|0
- Asker4 d
I have asked him numerous times. That is his "me" time as he calls it. He wants to do that alone. I have given him a blowjob while he watched porn. I have let him do whatever he wants to to me. I just don't understand what would make him just stop all of a sudden. I tease him, walk around the house almost naked, play with him, etc.
Oh wow. You sound like the perfect wife. Maybe try talking to him again and telling him that he is hurting you like this and you really want to be with him. You might want to call a marriage counselor. Good luck.

- They have to come up with something new when getting together their partner.
But porn it's just masturbating is the hardest thing to do0|00|0 - May be he needs me time as substitute for realthing with other women. Monogamy is unnatural, so he compensates this way in his fantasy world. Sexless marriage is scary, i hope you can keep him interested somehow...0|00|0
- Asker4 d
I don't understand that either. His excuse is that he is always tired and doesn't have the energy. He has the energy to masturbate and watch porn everyday but not fuck his wife? What am I missing? His words are "I'm not gonna live in a sexless marriage." This was right after my mom died and I lost my sex drive. He has said that to me numerous times. I'm just so frustrated. 2 months ago, 3 or 4 times a week. Now, I'm lucky if I get it once a week.
So you lost your sex drive, that made him addicted to masturbating and now you got it back but he enjoy the lazy selfpleassuring more. Well, you better act fast before it gets worse and you loose your drive forever. Seems like you need to seduce him every day or suggest to him if he doesn't want yo fuck you somebody else will.
- Because there is low sexual excitment at home. Have you two spiced things up over the years, in any way?
Are you and he in decent shapes?0|00|0- Asker3 d
I am. He is a truck driver. I walk around our home almost naked, touch him, tease him, dance with him. We have had sex with another couple in the same room. The female and I have been together while we were all in the same room. He can do whatever he wants to me. I am always more than willing to try something once.
- We like sex and we like variety. Modern society does not allow us either. Too much pressure on wives too. Hope there are better outlets for men and women.0|00|0
- It might be a trust issue. But it is clearly an issue in the relationship. Because it sounds like you are an amazing wife!0|00|0
- He’s become addicted to porn and he probably does jerk off to it everyday. Marriage counseling would be a good idea.0|00|0
- Maybe You should speak to him and tell him how you feel about it and what exactly you want and what can be done on both sides so that both are happy in this marriage.0|00|0
- I myself watch porn though married with a pretty and sexy girl. But we both watch together. I believe watching porn together strengthens the bond.0|00|0
- you could always watch it with him to turn him on but no. You rather bitch and whine about it to nag him to an early grave0|00|0
- Asker4 d
I have watched it with him before and gave him head while he was watching it. 2 months ago we were fucking like rabbits. He started watching porn everyday and masturbating and now I get the dick once a week when he feels like it. I walk around my house half naked, I play with him, I tease him, and I dance for him. There is always an excuse to why he don't feel like fucking.
you have to keep doing that. show him physically that you're too horny for him that you need to get fucked and there is nothing he can do to get away with it. Tell him something like "show me how you want to fuck those porn sluts" anything that will show him you're confident and that at the end of the day if he doesn't want to fuck you somebody else will because you're the prise here.
- Asker4 d
And honestly, I don't nag him about it. I have told him numerous times that I want the same amount of attention that he is giving to himself. If I got off as much as he did, I probably wouldn't be so sexually frustrated. I watch porn with him but I don't masturbate at all. I want the real thing and he can put it wherever he wants and he knows that. What is so addicting about porn? I don't fucking get it!

You can't simply say you'll do anything and have that be enough. Porn itself is a different experience, it's more private, there's no pressure, the visuals have a wide variety albeit a heavily dampened experience due to just looking at a screen.
What if I want to see lesbian sex? You can't just make that happen on your own.
What if I want to see a huge insertion but don't actually want you to do it because I know it destroys your body?
What if I want to see some ridiculous time stop scenario?
See? Porn has a lot of things *unique* to it.
You'd have to offer something enticing to overpower it's uniqueness.
Personally, I'd be invigorated by the promise of a threesome.
I've had girls encourage me to get with other girls and it makes me want to get with the first girl more. Very hot. - Show All Show Less

Maybe you need to give him some break or let him miss sex with you, reason is if you push him to do sex with you maybe that is making him turn off but if you don't give your pussy to him that is definetly drives him crazy ☺️ don't give your pussy to him, let him crave for your pussy ☺️
