No porn has ever managed to top my imagination. The flutters in your stomach. The roaming tingles. Bottom lip bitten, eyes wide shut. So good you moan to yourself. Maybe say your own name.

Some people strongly believe that watching porn constitutes cheating and creates impossible standards for real-life partners to keep up with, which can lead to sexual dissatisfaction.
Children thrive on clarity and consistency. Basically nothing like reality. I am literally too lazy to get up and get the computer. I love how this applies to ALL marriages. They spend so much time together. Make sure she is Even after that, the Church discourages them from entering serious relationships before they are considering marriage.
