    Everyone is different. However from my experience, even if you have a GF that attractive, you will never get enough satisfaction.

    Had a very hot GF, and we had sex several times every night. But for some reason, I still craved porn.

    So from my perspective it doesn't change

    Wanted to open this subject again.

    It's interesting to hear and see the thoughts.

    A reverse of this question would be, if your girlfriend is unattractive and you don't like her, would that increase your cravings for porn?

    Would be nice to see more votes too.

    Ofcourse you shouldn't be with someone you don't like at all. But what I mean is sometimes people settle for someone when they don't have confidence in themselves or opportunity to get what they really want.

    It would be good to get a deeper understanding for all these different scenarious, as it is possible for each one to have a different impact on people addicted to PMO.

    Such as:

    What is the cravings like for someone whose partner is:

    1-) Superhot attractive
    2-) Nice, but average looks
    3-) Unattractive and ugly

    If we get to the bottom of some of these questions, we might be able to see why quiting porn is easier for some and more difficult for others.

    This! Sometimes it can make it harder, I mean I would always choose sex with my wife over p0rn, but I found I watched more p0rn in marriage probably cause of chasers and wanting more sex when you're with someone. PMO is an escape when your partner isn't in the mood!
