The porn thing, again. I swear porn has caused many more problems than it's aggregate worth as an industry.
Sweetie, Cerberus, the three-headed dog dude here has a valid point. Guys have a visual fixation when it comes to sex and porn feeds that, us girls are cerebral about it: this is a known scientific fact.This, however; excuses no sloth of lying repeatedly and shoving drugs up his nose. The lying aspect is the deal breaker, in this. I, personally have a zero-tolerance policy on lies in a relationship. If this guy is going to perpetrate a fraud like this for this long, you just have to ask what else is he capable of? Drugs are drugs, "legal" or not, plus lying, you're headed for disaster, girl! Take the next off ramp and keep going!

I'm lucky enough to have a girlfriend that understands that at the moment, but in a previous relationship I had a girlfriend that didn't. So I basically told her I'd stop watching porn if she stopped watching romance movies with guys with perfectly sculpted bodies and unrealistically perfect in their treatment of women.
So while women say they have reason to feel insecure about guys watching porn because they don't compare to those women or can't do the things they do, is it not then reason for us guys to feel insecure about ourselves in comparison to the guys in those movies? Yet it is seen as perfectly acceptable for girls to sit through a movie wishing they had a guy like that, when guys wouldn't ever dream of actually wanting to be with a pron star.
You gotto ask yourself why he lied about the porn, in every relationship I've had I've watched porn, if my girlfriend at the time hated it then I wouldn't do it often at all, but I'd still watch it from time to time behind her back.
You can quote respect for her feelings all you want to me but what about my feelings? Porn means nothing to me but I do like to watch it to get myself off sometimes, every girlfriend I've had a dildo or vibrator they used regularly but I didn't get jealous of that even though they might have been bigger than my penis or do things that no penis can.

Hi Mimi. I have been with a guy for almost 1 yr. I found out that he was into internet porn/magazines several mos. ago. At the time I didn't think much of it... until I caught him (I think you know what I mean) in "The Act" on the internet. He got very angry at me- I think he was very embarassed, and felt guilty about it. He told me a couple mos. ago that he wasn't looking at it anymore, but he still is, and it really has taken a toll on my self-esteem. Especially thay he keeps lying to me that he says he's not watching it anymore.He does not do drugs, but only stopped drinking 14 mos. ago. I'm afraid he now has a porn addiction. He says he wants me to talk to him and express myself, but I am not 'allowed' to talk about porn with him. I think your man has no right to yell at you. There is physical and mental abuse. I have dealt with both, and I have to say that the mental stuff is worse. I know I didn't give you advice, but I wanted to let you know that you are not alone. Can you talk to him without him yelling or getting pissed at you? Good luck, hun.
