Debate: is watching porn cheating?

[superdog19]

I know everyone has their own opinions, I am curious what you guys think.  Is it ok to masturbate watching porn, or is that a form of betraying your significant other?  Or is it circumstancial, and up to the people in each individual relationship to decide together?

I agree with u miss Alex, my personal expereince, that most of girls like pron whil geintg sex with her partner, this is the pleasurable way, to improve the orla sex, my wife also like and enjoy it with me, so its not cheating to watch porn with ur partner and do the same thing at this time

If your open, honest and considerate of your partners feelings in regards to masturbating to/watching porn then there shouldn't be an issue. Problems arise when the activity is being hidden. Emotional, not to mention intimacy, issues will arise on both sides which will negatively affect any relationship. I agree with LosingMyMindInGA, if the activity, any activity for that matter, is hidden from your significant other then there is a betrayal of trust and respect.

Its a touchy subject for me too. My huband as well has an addiction to porn. He goes behind my back and jacks off to porn and their has been other incodents of him thinking about my best friend. This issue has gone on for 3 years in our marriage he always says he is sorry. But o feel degrated I feel like I am not good enough sexually for him. I am to fat from having 3 kids. I feel like I just ain't worth being with. And yes he has thought of other girls naked while we were having sex and that hurts me a lot because that just makes me feel even more insacure about myself! Idk if I should stay with someone like this or call it quits at this point in timeq

So your saying that they are not satisfied with their sex life, and that's why they turn to porn?

I've gotten into a few arguments with my then bf now hubby about it. I feel betrayed and it seems super disrespectful to ur partner. It just made me feel that I wasn't good enough for him. He says he doesn't watch it anymore and I just have to trust him but he spends so much time on the computer that it always crosses my mind.
