Gran Goes mental after finding porn on husband’s laptop

None of us really want to get busted watching porn by our significant other. The reaction we have found ranges from slight annoyance to anger. However, a Gran who found porn on her husband’s laptop seems to have taken the whole thing far too seriously, as this discussion about it on Gransnet showed.

She stated that he felt ‘betrayed and sick’ after discovering her husband of 40 years and been having some fun on the internet.

An Overreaction

The woman known as ‘loopylou’ on the forum (quite fitting, it has to be said) turned to the community to get some support after her husband’s betrayal.

“I’m shaking,” she began. “I went on the laptop to find out something for my daughter, went in history and am shocked.

“I found out my husband has been spending hours on very graphic porn sites (thankfully not child abuse) amongst other things.

“We’ve been married 40 years and I don’t know what to do or where to turn to for advice. He’s out at the moment and doesn’t know what I have discovered. I feel sick.”

However, it seems his interest didn’t stop there. She went on to point out that there was “stuff about escorts and massages, rent boys, far beyond what I would call ‘normal’ porn.

“It’s at all hours of the day and night. He’s also looked up sex contacts in Lanzarote and hotels after telling me we couldn’t afford a holiday.

“It looks like he getting one planned out there.

“He’s ‘talking’ to some girl on a sex blog.”

If he has no plans to go on holiday, I can only think he was looking at naughty pictures. That is unless he was about to become the male Shirley Valentine.

Well, after some encouragement from her friends at Gransnet, she confronted him. Well. It is safe to say that it didn’t go as planned.

“He’s not in the slightest bit contrite or sorry, saying it’s all my fault. 

“I have no idea where to go from here at the moment. I have worked out how to stop access on the laptop which I guess is something.”

Well, if she moans this much at him, I can kind of see his point.

It is fair to say, there were mixed reactions to her outraged stance. Though most seem to agree with her, there are a number who basically thought she should get a grip.

“My husband of 40 years looks at porn when he thinks I’m not looking,” added one.

“I think most men do, I don’t have an issue with it, provided he isn’t spending money or too much time on it…I think I’d be concerned about him ‘chatting’ on Porn sites though.”

“I know you are shocked but it is not as bad as it could be,” another offered.

Despite everything, the gran wasn’t very happy, describing it as probably “the end of the marriage”.

Protect Your Internet

Obviously she has gone well over the top, but it does go to show how important it is to make sure that your internet is secure and your partner isn’t going to be having a nose around. This is why I brought you a piece back in January which gave you some ideas how to keep your internet secure. Yes it was about escorts, but it works just as well for porn.

It certainly beats your partner blowing up at you!
