Yeah, everytime I think about disintegration I remember the Chinua Achebe novel which reminds me of Yeats and I sometimes take drmataic license with my posts so :)-

I miss Yeats. I really need to take some poetry/literature courses while I'm in college.

As far as all the details I left out of my original post that have been brought up:

1) Our sex life is great.
2) It was just normal straight porn
3) A large part of the problem was that she'd told me before that it was something that was against her morals and I said that I wouldn't do it while we were together.
4) As to why she was looking at my temp files: She almost caught me the other night and after I saw how much the suspiscion of it upset her I deleted all the porn I had stored on my computer. When I went to show her that I'd deleted it I realized I'd forgotten, like an idiot, to clear out the cache and all those pictures turned up in the search. She looked at the dates and realized that some of it was stuff I'd looked at while we were together. That was the big problem. So she wasn't snooping for it that much. I basically showed it to her.

Anyway, that's the update. Hopefully that's the last one of these I'll ever have to post.


Congragulations, you are now the woman in the relationship.

Clearly the answer is: ditch her. Tell her she needs to grow up. I have to beg my boyfriend for porn. Find someone who is not so uptight and who likes it like you. Seriously, some girls need to lighten the fvck up!

How exactly does a lady beg for this type of material from their SO?

(I've never heard of such a thing, that's why I'm asking)

I think she is the one who owes you an apology. She was snooping on your computer. I remember being young and immature and insecure, so I feel a certain amount of sympathy for her, but she needs to learn that 1) it's not ok for her to sneak around looking for stuff to get pissed off at you about, 2) looking at porn is not cheating, and 3) it's not ok to threaten to break up with someone in order to try to control him when what he is doing is perfectly normal. Make sure to get your balls back out of her purse before she leaves if you break up with her.

Would you have a problem with your girlfriend/wife looking at male porno without your knowledge? Probably....

Not in the slightest.

If you knew it was Yeats then you should know the context under which it was written.
I'd say Second Coming is pretty analogous to the current state of affairs in society, particularly ours.

5) I seem to have misplaced my testicles and seem to be wearing my gf's panties now.

You forgot #5 so I added it for you. If she is this bad now just wait until there is a ring on your finger.

Seriously, you need to dump him and set him up with the OP's girlfriend.

Asian girls are very sexually frustrated.
They act all innocent and such, but once you get them going, they go all the way.

btw candicec looks like Jail Bait. ;)

All guys have this little secret folder dug in their files somewhere. It usually has some ambiguos name and is buried beneath several other folders (probably 4 steps deep).

I used to have such a folder that was dug 4 deep and I called the folder a name my gf would never think to look in, Visual C++.

Lol, the piece of all this that amuses me is that all of you screaming "dump her" "she's too insecure" yada yada are failing to understand a couple of things.

1. this person knew herself well enough to tell the OP at the start that such activity would be a deal breaker for her and he agreed that he could live with that.He engaged in that activity without any sort of discussion revisiting the issue and she dumped him!

I dunno about you folks but if a partner tells me that certain behaviors are relationship enders,I'm sure as heck not just going to go off and engage in those behaviors after agreeing that I wouldn't, not without at least asking for a convo to revisit whatever issue is in question.

These type of guys seriously need to grow a pair.
Why hide it ?

Now that the OP was kind enough to detail the terms they'd already agreed to, and the way the offending evidence was found, you're absolutely right. Most of us were just working with the extremely limited information given in the first post.

I like Firefox because it's faster at clearing the cache/temp files than IE... :p

So you have a white fetish .. what's the difference?

To the OP: You lost the battle. She is dating you for WHO YOU ARE and if she doesn't like it, that's her problem. So you gave up porn. What's to stop her from nearly dumping you for something else that she doesn't approve of? She has the upper hand in your relationship and you have shown her your weakness by allowing her to get exactly what she wanted. If you're giving up porn, make her give up one of her passion that irritates you. I don't even know her and I can already tell she's a hypocritical bitch.
