    GBS, thank you for understanding. It was so difficult to discover what had been going on with my husband, what he was doing. As hard as it was, I still maintain that the secret being out is better. The reason being having two to deal with the issue lightens the load. It makes it easier to...

    it is good to be rid of the hid part. And while I know there are some here that say their wife knew, for the most part we do not. For myself, it became what else is he hiding. My mind went every where. Not just obvious, other woman etc. but to finances etc. So being out and if necessary...

    The betrayer has become the betrayed

    I am so sorry to hear this. I hate when porn claims another marriage or relationship. It can be worked through. Perhaps things will change for the better for you. I hope so!

    The betrayer has become the betrayed

    How has your communication been since you stopped using? After the last chance she gave you, did the two of you come up with a plan to re-establish trust and connection? When my husband used, he was not connected to me and our sons the way he was prior. He became emotionally unavailable. An...

    Wow, this is tough. The one thing I learned as my husband and I healed is that I had to work to bring about change In our relationship. It took both of us learning or should I say relearning how to just talk. And some days for me was I made through 1 day. And it was hard. But we made it...

    Great to hear you have talked! Perhaps her no inclination could have a physical reason and not necessarily a trauma response. She could be depressed or on medication for that and both zap sexual thoughts. And I know for a lot of women the thought we married our ”one and only” makes the...

    GBS, this makes me sad on so many levels. I first started posting many years ago to understand my situation with my husband as we walked our path through porn addiction. I conversed with men (no women at all at the beginning) and I understood better. I spoke with them about how I reacted and...

    A victory

    Jlied I didn’t mean it as defensive. Simply explaining what it was a victory. I get a glance, I think we all do. But this was not that. And even he knew it wasn’t. A hard thing for most partners is the “they want something/one else”. Especially when they have a type that is glanced at and/or...

    A victory

    Jlied, It was a victory because I did not go down the rabbit hole. Which sometimes happens. I was able to keep my struggle internal. A victory also that he did not say that I was mistaken and took ownership. It was not a glance, he was tracking her. I do know the difference.

    Could the two of you do a compilation sort of a recipe for a marriage. Talk about the ingredients and how they work and the outcomes. Some times working on small things helps.
