What’s the difference between watching porn and having a porn addiction?

Question

What’s the difference? Like when people talk about porn addiction what exactly does that mean? Sometimes I watch porn when I masturbate… lately I’ve been watching every time I masturbate cause it just makes it easier…is that considered being a porn addict? Sorry I feel like this is a stupid question but

Answer

Porn addiction is when you want to watch porn so much so that it effects your daily life. 
Having to watch it at work or school. Choosing to watching instead of sleeping. Porn is on your mind constantly. Stop having sex with your partner and choosing to masturbate to porn instead. 
Watching it just to masturbate and move on once done, is not an addiction.

Answer

An addiction to anything is when your life has become unmanageable because of the addiction therefore you feel like you NEED whatever it is - in this case porn. It becomes a problem with intimacy when men/women can’t get off with their partner without watching it. Also, people are addicted when they masterbate a lot and it creates issues of performance due to heavily watching porn.
Everything in moderation - but when it becomes “normal” or used excessively, it can turn into an issue.

Answer

There is nothing wrong with porn.

Answer

No, I don't think so… look up the definition of "addicted".  I think if you're not physically and mentally dependent upon it, you're not experiencing adverse effects when you don't do it, and it's not interfering negatively in your life, you're fine.
