Behavioral and Social/Cognitive approaches to Forming habits
* One of my habits and the history of it.
One of my Behavioral habits that I just can’t seem to break is watching porn, I know its sick, crazy, and nasty but I’m really, really in to it. I have had this habit for as long as I can remember. I think this habit started when I was around 9 or 10, my brother who is 5 years older than me would have porn magazines in his book bag that he and him friend would collect and trade at school. He and I always shard a room and after my parents went to sleep he would let me look at one or two of them. It amazed me how every women’s body was so different, the shapes, sizes and shades where all so different but at the same time all so beautifully. As I started to get older in the mid 1980’s cable TV hit the seen. Once I found out there was porn channel on the TV that was the beginning of the end me. My mom was not a big TV. Watcher and my dad only watched the old movies so no one really even knew we had the channel but me. While other kids were running home to watch cartoons I was running home to check the latest porn. As I became a teenager 3years and 300 porno’s later I started to date and have girl friends of my own and to no surprise they were amazed about all the things I knew about sex, This made me watch even more, now I’m to the point where I buying my own porn movies and just like my brother I have my own collection of porn. Now I’m in my first year of high school and it time to put all I know to the test, Just like any young man having sex for the first time I was a little afraid, the girl was in the 12th grade her last year of school so I’m pretty sure this was not her first time, So just like the guys on the porno’s I jumped right in, there was lots of nasty talking, hair pulling and skin slapping I don’t know why I was doing it but hay it works in the movies why not work for me too, and it did. * Why do I continue it? And have I ever attempted to break this habit;
It’s sad to but I do continue this habit to this day, why because I feel It make me better, It puts me in a place where I’m always in the mood, I’m always ready for action and it’s on my mine almost 90% of the time. This may sound funny to some but I think it’s better to be ready for sex and don’t get it, then to have it offered and not be ready for.it. The experience I spoke about earlier in high worked out great for me, the young lady I was with say she had one of the best times of her life that day and came back for more many times after that, she even told the girlfriends about me. Due to me knowing the things I knew about sex paved the way for me having four great years of high school, now just think if I wasn’t ready that day, It could have been four terrible years or high school. So have I ever tried to break this bad habit and the answer is yes! I tried once but it’s very hard, almost every time I sit in front of a computer I want to view a porn site. It’s funny because I’m to the point where it’s becoming an everyday thing which I really don’t see a problem with. I think it’s great or people to have a health sex drive.
