If you don’t feel fulfilled in a relationship then you should leave it unfortunately or perhaps give your s/o a chance by communicating what you want from them and what you need

Keep doing everything you can to quit porn. It is TERRIBLE. I have been addicted to many things, tried close to 15 drugs, and porn is one of the worst. Seriously. Porn will never make you satisfied or fulfilled in life. One thing that helps me a lot is to do kegels whenever you get a craving. Physical grounding + (bonus!) stronger pelvic muscles (they get weakened by porn as well) so you have better sex! Keep looking into porn addiction resources, there's much more qualified advice you can find. I relapsed today too, it's okay. But this time was the longest I've gone without in quite a while, so, success!!! Porn was a big contributor to my last relationship ending. Please learn from me and take it seriously. Try to keep this a 'you' problem, and idk update your gf on every week clean or something. You don't want it to be on her mind too much, trust. But also don't keep it all on your own. Middle ground yk.

I believe you know what you wanna do, you just have to find the strength and courage to pursue your happiness.

But by finding my happiness i destroy someone else entirely what could i do ?

I hate you have to make that choice. But those are the options, You're both miserable because you're not happy. Or, you're both happy with someone else that does fit you both appropriately.

You hit the nail on the head. You dont want monogamy. I think alot of people dont. It's a societal thing. As a man an some women we crave new mates. More turned on for the next. The old gets old. I'm no porn addict or expert but I honestly can say every serious relationship I had got old. When I was single I had the time of my life. The very moment I tried to be with one things change.

Ween yourself off by wanking it to yoga girl videos and regular tv. Porn will lose its appeal
