How did it go?
I would look at shite here and there very sporadically over the past few years but decided to give it up around September.
Not going to lie, my marriage (especially communication with the spouse) has been leaps and bounds better. And it wasn't necessarily bad but things have just plainly been better since that point as a whole. I think it really affected me as a husband more than I knew to admit.
Anyone else tried this experiment?

I'd be interested to know how many girls watch pron on their own?

I have sex twice a day at least with my girlfriend so I've basically given it up.
It's not hard, lol.

I dont watch it that much anymore but it wasnt a concerted effort or anything, im just too busy

so you gave up porn, and your relationship with your wife improved? sounds like just a basic coincidence unless you were addicted to it or something.

I've pretty much given it up. May peek here and there but I was in a bad rut where I'd whale away on myself to some pron almost every day. Had a couple of back to back scares during that time where I had a tough time staying hard when hooking up with a girl and it freaked me out so quit.
Like anything, it's tough for a couple weeks, but no big deal after that.

Very subtle brag. Very subtle

Maybe it was coincidence but the timing does some interesting doesn't it?
I don't think it's truly possible for a human to view others in a carnally sexual way (and get off to it) without later comparing those images to their spouse or significant other.

Pron is used to get by work filters FWIW.

Well he stopped calling his wife Diamond Foxxx, so that helped

i've not intentionally given it up, but have went long periods of time without it

I have been trying to give up porn and fapping for about a month now. I have relapsed several times, but im currently on an 11 day streak. (my longest ever!) Its helped with my social anxiety but my hormones are out of control. I find so many more women attractive now and im finding myself engaging in conversation with them more and more. They are just so damn beautiful so all I think about is having sex with every girl I see in class and I cant focus on anything else.
