Hi I'm in a long term relationship, but it will soon end due to my boyfriends addictiveness to porn. He's so addicted that we hardly have a sex life,,, i am trying anything to make him see me sexually, he rejects me most of the time, and for me to ha've te closeness of intimacy is a very huge thing in my life, he doesn't compliment me, won't make time for me, but yet he will go jerk off in the bathroom secretly watching porn on the internet,,,i have talked, yelled,screamed,cursed,even threatened to leave, he still doesn't want to change, i need help, please, I'm fed and and exhausted,or should i just leave, i love him, but how long do i have to fight for some intimacy.

Thank you Daisy, i was thinking that it's not right what He has been doing, the last thing i want is for me to walk away out of his life, i love him to bits, but i feel like deprived, and not good enough for him in a sexual way, as i sit here typing the tears are rolling, because generally he is an awesome boyfriend,, I'm scarred deeply

Hi Darkspire,
I know it must not be easy. But it's not a healthy relationship either. You need to give him the options of getting help from a doctor and hopefully he wants to go. If not it will only continue to get worst and eventually cause much more problems to your relationship.

Hi Darkspire,
Welcome to EmpowHER. It has definitely become a problem. You will need to discuss with him on how you feel about him watching porn and not wanting to be intimate with you. Give him the option of getting help from a counselor. If he rejects it, then it might be best to just walk away from the relationship. He might then realize he needs help. It's not healthy to be with someone that just wants to watch porn and just totally ignores you.
Best,
Daisy
