Internet Infidelity Breaking Up Marraiges
from the e-therapy dept
Apparently therapists and marraige counselors are finding that internet infidelity is increasingly breaking up marraiges. People (both men and women) are getting addicted to internet sex or pornography and it's interfering with previously healthy relationships. Of course, I wonder how happy the relationships were in the first place if one of the partners feels the need to turn to the internet to fulfill his or her sexual needs.
Thank you for reading this Techdirt post. With so many things competing for everyone’s attention these days, we really appreciate you giving us your time. We work hard every day to put quality content out there for our community.
Techdirt is one of the few remaining truly independent media outlets. We do not have a giant corporation behind us, and we rely heavily on our community to support us, in an age when advertisers are increasingly uninterested in sponsoring small, independent sites — especially a site like ours that is unwilling to pull punches in its reporting and analysis.
While other websites have resorted to paywalls, registration requirements, and increasingly annoying/intrusive advertising, we have always kept Techdirt open and available to anyone. But in order to continue doing so, we need your support. We offer a variety of ways for our readers to support us, from direct donations to special subscriptions and cool merchandise — and every little bit helps. Thank you.

No Subject Given
Could happen I suppose.
But certainly not the norm.
I know of 3 cases where a marriage got into difficulties because of Internet comms.
In every case it was the same.
Just simple emails where they (3 men) refound old girlfriends in the Internet.
And in the Internet they were much braver than when they might have been had they met the same woman face to face in a simple street.
But why not blame the internet?
These theories are all promoted by Jewish authors hoping to write a new "shocjk horrhor" book.
Thereby make a lot of money for little effort.
