1. It increases arousal, which would hopefully increase sexual desire.
2. People use it as more of a "complete solution" / substitution.
3. People use it as a tool to avoid confronting and dealing with the inevitable problems and complexities which are bound to arise in any long-term relationship.
To me, pornography seems like such a poor substitute for real life connection and experiences, I've found it doesn't replace anything beyond, uh, basic "maintenance" needs. Porn is enjoyable, but pales in comparison to a real interaction with a real live person.
Between this and the depressing macro-economic climate, our generation has a tough road ahead.
I find this to be true as well, but I would wager many strongly disagree with this statement based on their own experiences.
Going back to your long-term partner is just more of the same monotony vs. the practically infinite supply of different people on pornhub.com.

No doubt real interaction is more enjoyable, but real interaction with whom and the same person again and again over years matters too...
