You are happily committed to a long-term partner, but one day you discover they have a porn stash they have hidden from you - content you find appalling (not illegal) How would you react?

I would be pissed because I probably asked them to tell me about their kinks several times and they said they were super vanilla so I never opened up about my weird shit and there's no trust in the relationship 😡

depends what kind of appalling tho. if it involves kids but isn't illegal on some technicality that's a bigger problem.

(teehee) If I am happily committed, why would porn be a big deal breaker? It's not like I found an album/scrapbook of them married with a bunch of kids on the side... Now that there is a reason to be truly appalled.

We’d definitely talk about it. Not really something I’d consider a marriage-destroying thing.

I'd be like, "geez sweetheart, why didn't you tell me you wanted to shove a toothpick up my asshole?"

I’d think they had a reason for not wanting to tell me, and move on. If they want to share their kink, that’s fine. If they don’t, that’s also fine. Kinks are such deeply personal things that a lot of people hesitate telling their partners for fear of being looked at in horror, or even being laughed at. Moral of the story: don’t go spying on people, you might not like what you find.

I have a bad habit of snooping so I have encountered this scenario.. More than once.. My take is that unless it involves children, or animals, it's none of my business (or anyone's) what they're secretly into. People rarely act on their strange fetishes anyway.

I'm shocked that they never told me, I guess, but mainly I laugh at the fact that they're apparently a freak.
