I also think people SHOULD be confronted by the thoughts of dating other people while they are in a relationship. I think you should be confronted by thoughts about other women, and then being glad to turn them down because of love. If you have to deny and force yourself not to think about those things, how strong is your love?
Obviously ever guy is going to have a "wonder what it would be like to get in her pants" moment. All guys have that when walking down the street and seeing a beautiful girl. But as you said, love shuts that down.
The problem is when guys choose porn over having sex with their SO. And this thread isn't the first time I've heard about it. Some guys have an unhealthy obsession with porn, neglecting their SO so they can watch it. Some sneak out of bed at night after turning their SO down for sex and spend the next few hours masturbating in front of the computer. That's unhealthy.. and those people should seek help.
