Clinical TherapistExplain to your partner your feelings about them watching pornography and maybe ask them a little bit about why they enjoy it. You can open a conversation about your own personal sex life, fantasies, desires or things your partner would like to try, but maybe feels nervous to bring up. Discussing these things not only strengthens your communication, but can also open up a whole new world to intimacy with your partner. Trying to control your partner's pornography use may actually backfire and result in them hiding it from you, which can weaken trust within the relationship. -
