  • Nope, but he sure is disrespecting you. Tell him how uncomfortable this is to you and if he was an addiction over porn, then he needs help, he should then go seek a therapy.
  • Of course he's cheating on you! He's looking at other women. It doesn't have to be physical, in order, to be cheating. He's LUSTING after them. Tell him either lose the porno, or lose you. Either way, he needs professional counseling because porno can lead to sexual addcitions, marital infidelity, etc. It's the devil's tool to take monogamous sexual intercourse within the confines of marriage and turn it into something filthy, nasty & dirty. Take my advice: tell him it's you, and counseling for his porno addiction, or it's his porn. Either way, you need to make a serious decision and evaluate your relationship, now you go girl and talk to him!
  • I'd say considering any kind of porn as cheating is a little harsh. Most girls understand that guys masturbate often.
  • Porn isn't about imagining yourself with someone else - it allows guys to sample blondes, brunettes, gingers...it's like window shopping. I wouldn't consider it as cheating. He may have been doing it for you also; the main reason 99% of men (well, from what I've heard) watch it is to find out exactly what turns a woman on. ALL guys (don't deny it!) love porn, it's nothing weird or unusual. I say give him a chance & let it go, as most men do it anyways!
  • I think a little bit of porn is good for a guy. They have needs and there is only so much us women can do for those needs. I prefer my husband to watch some porn once in a while..then him only using me for a quick fix to problem that only required a little bit of excitement. Sex is an intimate bond b/tween two people and quick fixes are why guys watch porn, I rather he come to me when he wants a long intimate night.
  • downloading for a friend... interesting thought
  • I'm personally not a fan of porn...unless he's watching it with me. That is why I make sure he has "sexy" pictures of my at his disposal, for use when needed! Downloading it for a friend my ass! Pardon me for being blunt, but come on! Is it cheating...I don't think so. Perhaps he felt the need to lie because he knew you wouldn't like it. Sounds to me like it's time to have a chat and see if there is something that you're not doing/could be doing that could take his attention away from porn and back to you!
  • looking at porn is not cheating
  • Lighten up. Every relationship goes through changes, and needs them. Years ago my Secretary came to me with a problem with her husband. He'd quit touching her. I bought her a Playboy and an Esquire and told her to read one or two stories in bed that night. The following morning her face was beaming and she brought me a large muffin with the words "Thanks Boss" in icing.
  • Porn isnt cheating. Its a symptom of sickness.
  • Porn isn't necessarily cheating, but 'downloading it for a friend' is one of the dumbest excuses ever. If he wants to look at porn occasionally, he should at least be honest about it. The fact that he feels the need to lie about his porn consumption worries more than the actual viewing of it.
  • Downloading it for a friend, or not, I don't think that looking at pornography is cheating. That being said, if it bothers you, it is definitely something the two of you need to work out.
  • Differently not cheating. Just something a lot of people do. But honestly, I had a friend who would download porn for his buddies onto dvds, and made good money from it. So he could be downloading it for a friend, or giving a bad excuse to why he has it on the computer. Which if he was just doing it for a friend, it would disappear after he gives it to his friend.
  • I download porn for friends all the time...of course i download it for me all the time as well. Its not cheating but if you have expressed a wish that he not look at porn then obviously there is an issue to address. But it cant be all about you. Maybe you need to accommodate him and find a compromise. Try porn in the relationship. It doesn't have to hard core XXX, just find some light porn and experiment with it. there's probably something he does for you that doesn't really turn him on but he still does it cause its what rocks your world. it doesn't have to be every time you get together but every now and again shouldn't really present a problem. If you have a moral objection to porn and really cant accept it into your relationship then you will have to accept the fact that he might have a few secrets and pretend to believe the downloading for a friend line.
  • He might be lying to you 'cause of nagging about it? Justa guess. Lotsa men dig porn and it seems harmless enough, tho' I personally never 'got it'. No biggie, imho.
  • Cheating.. Yes, If you have told him how it makes you feel and he disrespects you and hides it.. Then Yes! Anything that requires a password or hiding or lying is wrong in a relationship or marriage. Porn can be ok if both are into it.. but if they are not and it hurts the other.. Then it is wrong. I have this problem here at home. I feel unloved, unattractive and used . I feel like I can never ever compete with the images on the DVD's or magazines...He hides it and lies about it.. And if he was being nagged about it.. OH WELL... Marriage is two people working together and communicating. Not hiding , lying and cheating. Porn hurts some women so deep that is dissolves the marriage. mine after 27 years is breaking down so fast I am not sure there is a cure.. Men don't think this is a problem, but if they want to have the pics and the porn and they risk their wife, kids and marriage, etc.. then it is their choice to lose. Let them make a life with one of the Playboy bunny's and see how far that gets them...I guess a little airbrushed ink is worth 27 years of love and commitment, 3 kids and a wonderful life... Or maybe if he put it all away, the "spice" would be back.. I know it would on my side....
  • its not cheating. guys like porn and yeah we arent super proud about it its just a thing guys like. its not like you arent fulfilling his needs or anything it may be that hes just watching or wants to see something new to suggest. if hes saying its for his friend its prolly cus hes embarressed about it. i promise you it isnt a problem to really worry about.talk to him andtell him to just be open about it. orrrrr maybe it really is for a friend lol never know
  • no u cant say he is cheating until he is really with another womann.. but watching porn is awkward too but this is never considered as cheatin
  • he is NOT downloading it for a friend. it is for HIM. dont be fooled. my boyfriend does the same thing. it upsets the living shit out of me. is he cheating physically ? NO. mentally? YES.
  • get some porn books orr lovely posters of men haha and plant them in your room hehe see how he feels ??!!!!!!!
  • Mentally cheating? Yes. Lying? Hell yes.
  • mens porn is visual, womens is mental. those romance novels women read are nothing if not the female porn. while he is lieing about doing it just for a friend, he doesn't trust that you can keep it in perspective... and by you thinking looking at porn might be cheating you prove him right. in a relationship which does not use porn, porn is just shower material, for use when the woman sayes no. how can women expect to be all a mans sexual activity when they can go weeks, sometimes months, without needing sex? no porn isn't a good thing, but it isn't cheating.
  • No way try watching it with him learn what turns him on then do it for him
  • I personally believe that it is cheating because he is looking at other women for sexual purposes and I wouldn't believe the downloading for another friend that sounds like bs because if his friend is able to watch porn he sure can download it himself!
  • No but even so, he shouldn't want to go looking at that stuff if he's with you.Put you're foot down and tell him to get a cop on....if he were really into you, and really loved you as much as he says he does then he wouldn't be looking at pictures of other women naked.
  • not cheating..my hubby of 8 yrs looks at it all the time without me..i dont care..as long as he keeps his dick in his pants and not in someone elses garage..
  • guys are going to watch porn no matter what... the comment i give my boyfriend when jokes about watching porn, which i am sure he actually does is "boys will be boys" if you get mad at him or question him he is just going to do it behind your back and it will start a huge fight if your ok with it then he will love you even more for that! just stay cool about it... just cause he watches it does not mean that he doesnt like what you do in bed or whatever... guys are just into porn.. and hey ask to watch it with him and im sure hed just love that...
  • Yes, you're boyfriend should not be watching porn. It is cheating when he has you, and it's still wrong if he is not in a relationship. He doesn't deserve you, find a real man. "But I say unto you, That whosoever looketh on a woman to lust after her hath committed adultery with her already in his heart."
  • He seriously said he is downloading it for a friend. That's hilarious. ROFL Most guys, except the really sweet religious ones, have a porn folder on their computer. It's when they chose porn over you that you should be worried.
  • IMO, looking at porn is not cheating. But if it bothers you that he's looking at it, either for himself or a "friend", time to move on.
