    I have only been with my boyfriend now for one year, and we live together. For the past 2 months he has been shutting me down for sex, I try to start something but he just says goodnight and goes to sleep. He also never starts anything with me never tries to have sex (has been like that since the beginning) When we do have sex if he gets off before me, he never tries to get me off. I have brought it up to him and he says sorry but hasn’t changed. I thought maybe he just wasn’t in the mood, but when I’m not home he watches a lot of porn. Any advice?

    Thank you for telling me your ages. Men at age 27 usually have healthy sex drives. So unless he’s got a medical problem, it sounds like you think his porn hobby has gotten out of control and is now the reason that he’s not interested in having sex with you. If he’s using all his sexual energy with porn, and none with you then it’s possible he’s developing an addiction. Porn addiction is usually measured by the interference with real life, and if he’s refusing to have sex with you, but he’s masturbating to porn, he’s definitely got a porn problem because it’s eroding his relationship with you. He’s the only one who can decide to stop “using”. But unless he does decide to get help with this problem, expect more of the same. The only other thing that could be going on, which you haven’t mentioned, is that the relationship may be waning. Either he’s growing tired of the relationship or bored with it — or there’s someone else he’s interested in or even seeing. But I’m guessing from what you’ve written that porn is the problem.

    You’re going to have to be frank with him and tell him that he’s got a problem with porn. Most addicts deny their problem, so be prepared. If he doesn’t want to get help, this may be the beginning of the end of the relationship, but the best thing you can do is to let him know that you’re concerned about his porn habit and feel that it’s getting in the way of your sex life.
