Question:
my boyfriend and i have lived together for 2 months we sleep in seperate rooms. Sometimes he sends me to bed to my room then he gets on his computer to look at porn. I told him this bothers me. He says it has nothing to do with me. should i let this affect the way i look at myself? Is he displaying abnormal behavior?

Good for you for saying that this behavior bothers you. Your boyfriend can get help with overcoming his sexual addiction. Please see the information in our addiction/compulsion channel here on sexualhealth.com. You can support him in getting help, but you do not have to accept this behavior in the long run. You may benefit from discussing this with a counselor of your own. Best wishes, Annette Owens, MD PhD
