I would ditch the wife. (Even if that answer is not politically correct with a lot of people here.)

i wouldn't go that far especially since i/you dont know anything about their relationship. The fact the she is controlling/insecure *could* also result from that he is doing something wrong...it's too easy to blame anything on the wife at the first glance without really knowing why she's acting like that....

Even If I do throw it, does that mean that I'm cured. No, I'll just be a porn addict with no porn. Can I be changed? cause part of me thinks that this desire is innate or born within as an instinct, if so, then I can't be changed. Or should I just repress those desires and become a robot of social conformity. Or should she just accept me for who I am whether my addiction is subjective or objective...

Whoa boy. Should have read this before replying. If you've got an addiction, then you might wanna toss the stuff. And this isn't something you should be asking anyone but a professional about.

Go ahead and take a stand now. You might as well make this an issue if she is becoming a control freak. If it was there before she was tell her to get the fvck over it or at the very least make her get rid of something or change something you dislike. I suggest her attitude. Unless there is some profound religious reason behind her actions that you knew about before you married I would tell her to get over it. I have pictures of my old girlfriends and plenty of porn and my wife doesn't mind either of them. She actually likes the porn. If she is stuck on throwing it away find someone willing to accept it. You will probably live a longer happier life. On the other hand you did describe it as an addiction so maybe you could tone it down a little. At least have a couple glasses of wine and pop one in. See if the reaction is the same. She may just be a closet pervert herself.

Nevertheless she is pissed and wants me to throw it all away... everything, and anything with a girl on it. Is she over-reacting? Should I toss it?

Thanks for your serious comments

Tell her that thinking about all those hot women helps you close your eyes and make love to her.

You have a point. But ditching the wife is always a valid solution in the worst-case scenario.

If he's an "addict" it's entirely possible that he's ignoring his wife's sexual needs in favor of porn,he might also be less than considerate on the streets,eyeing other women is fine,comparing your woman unfavorably to them or making audible crude comments in front of her is not.

If it really bothers her that much and you love her enough to keep drama at a minimum, mail it all to me.

My s/o's knew about my pr0n collection... freaked some of them out, but most managed to get over it and watch too.
:Q

pics?

Of the pr0n? Mostly Tia Bella, Tera Patrick, Vivid girls, etc.

I call bull$#!&.

Very true. But that would not be the "worst-case scenario" of which I speak. If he created his own problem, then he must solve it.

If she objects to it, let her toss it.

Is it an over-reaction on her part? Probably.

You gotta pick your battles. Sounds like fighting for the possession of something that is replaceable and you haven't looked at since college doesn't sound like it's worth the effort.

BTW-what guy hasn't looked at porn?

Touche!

But yes, I've been married for 11 years and have two boys. It's been a great ride, and I wouldn't change it for anything.

In every successful relationship, both parties make compromises. It's awful selfish to think that one doesn't need to make them. But then again, if you can't fathom why a hidden porn collection might make a girl feel not so special... Then selfish is probably not an unfair description.

Squisher is right... You need to pick your battles. And it is still of my very humble opinion that if porn is that important to you, then you need to rethink your priorities.

mine didn't believe me when i used to say i didn't have any/didn't watch it... (early on) then she told me she thought i was weird if i didn't. so i confessed obviously... who wants to lie and be thought of as weird b/c of it... she's totally cool with it of course. girls like porn with a plot though... i'll never understand that...

LOL, I've noticed that too! I try to get her to make out with me in between the action scenes; but she's too distracted to make out because she's trying to keep up with the plot!
