Hope you don't mind me asking.
Porn becomes a problem when it upsets the spouse
Porn becomes a problem when it interferes in every day life
Porn becomes a problem when the porn addicted spouse is so consumed by it that's all they can/do think about
Porn is like alcoholism/drug addiction. It starts small (think "Playboy") then as the addiction grows, they need more and more raunchy stimulation to get the same high.
Prom is a problem when the porn addicted spouse lies his ASS OFF about everything.

Think of it this way - if he has to hide it, delete it, lie about it, it's already a problem. It's a form of infidelity people do not understand unless they've stood on those shoes.

Sorry to sound so harsh.... but this situation for me is all of the above.
