Claire Dalton had met the love of her life at 17.
After four years together, Claire was about to walk down the aisle to marry her “best friend”.
But then she looked on her future husband’s phone.
There, she discovered something that made her feel like “someone had taken a dagger and fiercely pierced it” into her heart.
It was…
.
.
Wait for it.

Prepare yourself.

PORN.
Yep, it turns out ole’ mate fiance liked to watch porn.
Claire has written about this life-changing discovery in a 1860 word piece for the Facebook group Love What Matters.
In the post, the 21-year-old describes herself as “THAT girl”.
“That girl that spent six months with a ring on her finger thinking I had finally found what I’d been looking for. The girl that was about to step foot into the journey of her “dreams coming true.” That girl that planned an entire wedding only to find a week prior that it was all a lie from the beginning.”
Claire goes on to describe the night she discovered what will be forever known as #PornGate.

I don’t condone lying..but the poor bugger had his wedding cancelled to a woman he probably loved dearly all because he chooses to watch some porn and have a touchy feels with himself. And he did come clean to her but with massive repercussions!!!
I am a woman and I enjoy porn. I think it’s sad that some see it as failure and feel they should be ashamed for enjoying it. Do what makes you happy. You are completely entitled to masturbate to porn if you want to.
I can’t lie... as soon as I realised this was more of a religious problem I felt relieved for him. I hope he meets a woman who doesn’t make him feel ashamed for watching something that turns him on. Hopefully he can enjoy watching it with someone else in the future 🤪
I’m surprised at the comments here. Why shouldn’t she have expectations of her partner? If they had discussed this issue and agreed on what is and is not acceptable conduct, and he broke that promise, why wouldn’t she be upset?!? Good on her for standing firm and not excusing what is obviously a deal breaker for her. The fact that it isn’t for a lot of other people isn’t relevant.
I think a lot of people believe the trendy lie (which “Friends” did the hard sell of) that watching porn is cool and harmless.
In fact it takes huge efforts to conquer a porn addiction and therapy is a growing industry.
Porn is destructive and damaging to its participants and its watchers. Too many people I know have been ruined by it, lost jobs, lost families. Good on her for making the call.
