930/10 is way too early. That’s a tween’s bedtime. Not a grown adult.
Him having to get his needs met by porn is a separate issue.
Fascinating!
What time do you eat dinner? What time do you get up in the morning?
It might vary greatly by geography or career, but many school/work schedules require parents to be up by 5:30/6am (earlier if they want to exercise). If you want 8 hours of sleep which is average then yes, 10pm.
Also sometimes people call bedtime when they go to bed, not sleep. If you read a book at night, you might go to bed at 10 but not fall asleep 'til 11. It's not that different from someone who stays up watching TV then comes to bed and falls straight to sleep.
Then neither you nor the other responders read the OP since her complaint was that her BF was up with the light on after bedtime. That shouldn’t have caused this thread if OP meant she was in bed reading or watching tv.

Dh is a night owl and sleeps 12-7am.
No one said 1030 is a child’s or tween’s bedtime.

I’m about to blow your mind:
I go to bed at 9:30/10 and I have been a very high functioning adult for 29 years.

Apparently not since you have a children’s bedtime. Do you work? Have kids? Make them dinner?
NP but I'm generally asleep by 10/10:30 and I have always worked full-time, I have kids, and I do indeed make dinner. What time do you eat, for crying out loud?
