It depends if you have a partner/wife or not. If you become so addicted to porn to the exclusion of your social life; your work or your partner then you have a problem. If you start lying because you have to get back to watch porn then you have a problem. If porn is all you can think of then you have a problem.
Try not watching porn and see how you feel. Statistics indicate that men can easily become addicted to porn and then find it hard to have 'normal relationships'. They then have to seek professional help to sort out their addiction. Pornorgraphy like gambling can be a hard addiciton/obsession to break. People who have both these addictions have little or no social life. Their families suffer. Does this sound like you. Then try and get some help. You may be using porn because you have low self-esteem.
Porn is not real - it is a fantasy world. If you have started to meet and talk with women online then you are hooked and will have trouble stopping.

I would agree with the other posts. Make sure you're going out and socializing and make sure this doesn;t become an addiction.

It might be that you dont like the habbit you've gotten into. Maybe your porn watching is keeping you away from other things in life, like your social life?
If so, try a change :) But in itself: no watching porn is just fine, and I know a lot of women dont like it but in all honestly thats their problem not yours.

 At your age? No. But I would suggest setting it aside and trying to find a real person to occupy your desires instead of trying to enjoy sex vicariously through pornstars.
Just a suggestion. Having a desire for sex, or a curiosity about it is healthy. But too much of a good thing is not good.
It goes from being an indulgence to a bad habit fast. Try real life, its much more fun.

Watching porn is a normal, healthy activity. It shows that you have a healthy interest in sex, and by watching porn it offers you a release.
It does not matter how many times a day you feel the need to watch porn as long as it does not effect your social or working life.
If and when you have a girlfriend you should address the issue together. Many women feel threatened by porn, or more importantly the porn actress.
However, your preference to watching porn may be overcome when you have that all important person in your life.

watching porn once in a while is ok. this is the time for u to build a career and think about ur future.
its just my advice that its ok if u do watch it some times. but if its daily and ur spending hrs on it then its serious. best way to reduce it is try going out with frends for movies or try developing some interesting hobby. try to divert ur mind wen ur feeling like watching it.
try to control ur self by thinking how much time u will be wasting seeing it.
