Hello everyone,
I am an overthinker and I never had a problem with that. I used to be proud too because of my overthinking nature because I used to explore all the possibilities and opportunities. But as of now and for the past 2 years I have been overthinking negative things. I am 23 and I am in a relationship. we both are very good at our careers and we love each other very much. He gives respect to my job, my skills everything. He is not an overthinker. We together are planning to go to the other country for our higher studies and we will be living in our home country for only 44 days more. The only problem I have is he is an addict to porn. He has been watching it since his school days. But after entering into this relationship he understood that I have a problem with him watching porn and he tried and he is evening trying to reduce it. He also said as he habituated to it, it is just a habit nothing more than that. But he used to see every porn star before our relationship. I tried to understand him and even tried but my mind just can not accept him seeing another girlβs body. Whatever am trying to do whatever he is trying to make me understand it is not happening. I am trying to involve in different things to distract from this thought. It is not happening. I just donβt want to think abt this and I really love him soo much. I already asked him many and many questions and maybe he was fed up answering me too. I donβt want to ask him any other questions or doubts abt this and I donβt want to think about it. I am even getting anxiety attacks because of this. Please help me in what way I should be peaceful and have a good sleep. I really donβt want to waste my time in this way.

Then do one thing change yourself by doing some busy things and learning new things and talking to that person who makes you happy like your mom and dad and try to listen music which heal your painβ¦
But the question is β¦is it really okay to watch porn knowing that am suffering in this way? I am not able to come out of those looping thoughts

Hey hey hey β¦cool β¦its normalβ¦take it in a normal wayβ¦ he is tryingβ¦to control his habits but u also have to control your thoughtsβ¦ donβt divert yourselfβ¦ change the way of thinkingβ¦may be it would help ππ
At some point I had doubt on him that is he really trying to reduce itβ¦
But he said βI am really trying to reduce itβ

No watching porn at this age is not ok over all first try to do something thatβs make your life more beautiful and get a secure a future after that you can watch or do

Accept thisβ¦and if your bf is saying something please trust himβ¦are you getting jealous of themβ¦noβ¦ please donβt you r much much better than themβ¦ your boy trust you now itβs your turn to make him feel comfortable with his habitsβ¦try helping him to get rid of thisβ¦make his mind divertedβ¦i had a relationship butβ¦i said him to stop all this β¦i never had any problem with him for watchingβ¦coz i myself accepted that this is just a feelingβ¦ I canβt be with him everytime na!!!..same bruh!! U also need to convenience yourself π€π€π€ππlet not this overthinking control youβ¦you control your thoughtsβ¦try thinking about your good timesβ¦your futureβ¦u gonna stay together happilyβ¦if you try accepting this as a normal thingβ¦and not make it toxic for you bothβ¦this may harm your relationship ππ please work on your thoughtsβ¦god bless you π€
Heyy thank you soo much for the reply I really got tears when I am reading thisβ¦ I am trying to understand this but I donβt know why am overthinking abt this soo soo much. It is affecting me, my boyfriend, my mom is thinking that I am being upset for some other thing cos she doesnβt know what gng onβ¦ I really donβt know when I will stop thinking thisβ¦ can you plss plss plss tell me are there any ways that I can really reduce to think abt thisβ¦ or did u follow any particular things to accept this.
Find a hobby β¦ Cause that will help as a distraction β¦ And as the other person said give him time and trust him, youβll be only hurting yourself that way β¦ And if heβs trying to reduce heβll definitely stop β¦ I canβt tell you anything to stop overthinking cause I also overthink everything
