Pornography in relationships? - intangible - 02-28-2013 03:22 AM
My current boyfriend and I have had a really rough relationship for the past year we've been together. I've had to deal with emotional infidelities, with self-esteem issues rooting from the infidelities...it's just been a big mess. Most of it had to do with social media.
He thinks that social media (like twitter) has nothing to do with him, and that what he does on there isn't indicative of the state of the relationship. I've told him this wasn't so several times.
Yesterday, I saw he followed a porn star on twitter. I checked his tweets and they were all him half naked. I felt offended and lessened. He didn't know why I was reacting to it.
Am I really just hypersensitive?

Shooting some pornography together is a great way to grow closer as a couple. After you break up you'll have something to remember him by.

Social media, or any media can only effect you if you let it.
I realize it is almost impossible to turn off your electronic collars, but give it a try.
I only have a pay by the minute cell phone. If your name is not in the phone, it does not get answered. I have no idea what people say about me, nor do I care.
I bet boyfriend will flip out if you don't text, tweet, or call. Suggest you meet for all conversations.
Stop being so emo.
Now go drink a beer and relax.

It does sound like you are hypersensitive. And you need to define emotional infidelities. What do you mean? It's ok to admire pictures of hot guys that are not you. His actions and how he feels toward you should matter most. He should not physically do anything with anyone other than you, and he should pay attention to you and your needs....but if you are over the top jealous over something that is not there, then maybe you should not be together and you should seek counseling to determine what is going on within you...of course couples counseling could benefit you both.
