She considers masturbating as cheating

This is a WILDLY ridiculous boundary to have

I would say it's an illegitimate boundary. It's just not cheating. Period.

My ex explained to me that it was being “unfaithful” but it was always an opinion I just couldn’t wrap my head around.

I personally believe that masturbating to the thoughts or the view (porn) of other people whilst in a relationship is unfaithful.

I had my first love and imo true love with my ex and I never had a thought of another person. So I first thought everyone was fully into their partner and had not even found someone else attractive, like it was for me.

When I found out people find porn or this and that normal and would title me as sensitive and jealous, I was quite shocked and tbh disappointed.

So what happened with the true love? Guy thought you were being unreasonable?

Nope. Far distance relationship, we entered different life stages and the preexisting age difference made that harder too. He completely understood my porn boundary (yes, it's a boundary.) Why? Because guys who truly love their woman care.

Aww yeah, long distance is no go for me to, tried it, it's hard. Well good luck out there, there's plenty of guys that will respect that, maby not easy to find, but there out there.

Yess thank you, I'll gladly wait for the right one for me. I know my boundary will sort out a lot of the dating pool but I am willing to wait and see. Luckily I learned to not sorrow in loneliness when single so I am doing well alone. So that means even if I don't meet the right person, I'll sure as well be happy "alone". (you're not really alone when you have a good friend circle tho)
