NSFW- I need help with something very personal 18+
NSFW- discussion about porn below: Hi everyone, I don’t know how to explain this concisely, so I’ll just give the bare minimum details and if anything needs more clarification, please feel free to just ask. Long story short, I have been deeply struggling with partner-focused ROCD and my anxiety has seemingly gotten worse, even though my partner and I broke up 1.5 years ago. I recently found out that if you know someone’s username on pornhub, you can see their entire watch history. Everything is there. I can’t believe this information is public and it feels like such a breach of privacy. Again, without too much detail, I’ve struggled with some anxiety surrounding porn with my ex. I went through the first page of the watch history and my stomach was sick the entire time. I don’t care that he watches it at all- I’m just terrified something really weird or taboo or inappropriate will be in the watch history. I stopped after the first page because I knew it was super personal but I’ve been so anxious about it for days. Last night was really bad- I had to physically put my phone in the other room to not check. It would be like having your partners phone in front of you, unlocked, and NOT checking even though some awful secret could be in it. I feel like I’m ignoring a huge warning sign or ignoring important information by not checking. I feel like all my fears about his morality might be true if I see what his fantasies are about. Maybe I’m not making any sense 😅 The point is, I know not to check. It’s a huge invasion of privacy and even if I find anything- what am I going to do? Call him up and quiz him on it? I just need backup here, please. Please tell me if I’m doing the right thing by not checking. Thanks so much
