I CAN'T ENJOY SEX!!!!!!!!

textHi i've been with my boyfriend for a year and a half we have a 3 month old baby girl the problem is that when i was 7 months pregnant i caught him watching porn and that really hurt me, i became obsesive and thought from then on that every time i couldnt have sex with him he would watch it again. after i had my baby my sex drive decreased a lot i am 19 years old and i worry if this is normal i try really hard to enjoy sex with him but i just cant concentrate the image when i caught him always comes to my mind i really wanna work this out i want us to be a happy family i just dont know how to approach him on that. i also wonder if it is because he wants to do what he saw on that porn and i definitely dont like that and every time he tries to penetrate me it hurts :tissue:. what should i do please help me.

Re: I can't enjoy sex
Your initial reaction to his watching porn was anger and now you have closed yourself off to him. Currently you are harboring that anger instead of confronting him directly with how hurtful his behavior was-especially while you were carrying his child.
Sexual activity after pregnancy often diminishes but just as normally it should return. Currently your body is expressing this anger toward him by tightening up..... Read More signin

Re: I CAN'T ENJOY SEX!!!!!!!!

Hi this is tummygirl 27 years old, me and my boyfriend has been together for 9 months but I've known him for about a year. Since we been living together I've noticed that he LOVES porn movies. I never was really into that and at first it bothered me but now I'm cool with it. What I'm getting at is I'm 24 weeks pregnant with our 1st child and even though I don't agree with some of the things the woman do on the porn movies I watch them with him. Remember this one thing not telling you t.... Read More signin

Re: I CAN'T ENJOY SEX!!!!!!!!

Well, you know you're not the only one that feels that way. I've been with my now husband for 4 years and Every since I found out that he watches porn, even before we were married, our sex life has slowly diminished. I hadn' t dealt with this before, so I tried to understand it from his point of view although morally I think it is wrong & disgusting, and tried to watch one with him, but after maybe a minute I had to turn it off and started balling at the thought that he'd actually want to watch another woman having sex, we're married now and that's cutting it close to cheating in my opinion whether or not he'll ever meet these girls in real life. I'm always scared that it's going to turn into more than just porn.  In our 4 years we've had so many fights over this, I've confronted him so many times about how it makes me feel when he watches it and used to go into nervous breakdowns because it hurt me so bad, but he just keeps watching it. He always tries to hide it, but I always find it whether it's a dvd, tape, magazine, on the computer, ordered from cable or on his phone, which was also hurting our finances. I just had twin girls and while I was pregnant he looked at it as well and a few days after he was back at it, even when I was taking a nap or shower & he was suppose to be watching our newborns. I wish I could find a way to stop it and I tried to get him to go to counsel.... Read More signin

Re: I CAN'T ENJOY SEX!!!!!!!!

Not only will this lead to distance and you feeling inadequate but it will lead to him expecting you to do the same types of things that you feel are discusting and degrading. My now X-husband would watch all kinds of porn and then expect me to do the same things he saw in the pornos. Not only did he want me to do things but he wanted me to do it on videos so he could take them to work with him. He worked on a boat. We had alot of fights a.... Read More signin
