AI girlfriend app

[fortysomethingg]

What would you do if you found your husband/partner had been using an AI girlfriend app. Created an avatar, a generated woman and was interacting with her like a human. Chatting, sexting.

Is this a lesser evil than real porn with humans?

There are loads of apps like this for fantasy boyfriends/husbands too. Someone posted on here recently saying that their friend was using one.

I'll say pretty much what I think I said in response to that post - I certainly wouldn't see it as cheating. I think it's really just like a private sexual fantasy about a fictional character, which I personally think people are entitled to have. Nobody is being exploited by it. There's no interaction with real people. It really is just a fantasy, and I don't think anyone should be policing someone else's private fantasies about fictional or imaginary people.

If my partner was using an app like that, I'd probably rather not know about it. I think people are entitled to a private fantasy life and that we have to accept that. If I found out, I might want to ask if he using it because he was unhappy in our relationship, and if he said yes, I'd obviously want to work through that one way or another. But if he said 'No, it's literally just a fantasy, a bit like the steamy fiction I know that you write but discreetly ignore because no good can come of me reading the sexual scenarios you've imagined for an incredibly hot and charismatic man you've invented in your head' then I think I'd have to say 'OK, fair enough, let's never of speak of it again'.

I think if someone's doing this stuff INSTEAD of having a fulfilling relationship with their partner, that's a problem. But if it's IN ADDITION to a normal and happy relationship, just a little spicy fantasy, then I don't think it's really an issue.

It would give me a massive ick.

My son asked me to download this app, but he’s 14, so i ‘get it’.

I still said ‘no’, of course, cos it’s ridiculous.

A grown man, though?? Even more bloody ridiculous.

grok is good for writing detailed storys or mini stories
