A quote that hit home

There are a lot partners struggling with D day or how they found out the important person in their life used porn for what ever reason. And in my threads and many postings, I have outlined my experiences from discovery to the present. A documentary I watched yesterday day had this quote and it really hit a note with me.

”Only someone you trust completely can betray you completely.” “And the price of trusting anyone, is that they can betray you like that”

This is a partner’s mind fuck after discovery. I remember asking my husband over and over, “How could you do this to me? How could you hurt me so bad?” I think some of the addicts are in the, “but I didn’t touch anyone.“ Yeah you did, you touched yourself being aroused by what you looked at.”

And that betrayal of trust and looking at the price is what is so devastating.

I just thought now that some have read this I would tell you the documentary. It was at the end of Madoff: The Monster of Wall St. So it referred to people that trusted him with their life savings. I just wanted you to know it was not a psychologist, or people impacted by porn. I felt though, it was worth a read.

@ImBroken when those words came at the end of Madeoff I actually backed the video up so that I got the exact words. Both sentences. Why? Because when my husband and I got married, I had told him and continued to tell him things no one ever knew about me and my thoughts. I ran toward the end of the high dive with no hesitation and jumped no cannonballed right into the lake of trust and feeling between us. I felt through my whole physical, spirit and mind soul, that we were indeed one unit made out of two halves. We are one unit still, people talk about how close we are. But I no longer feel we are lovers if that makes sense. There was a man on here several years ago LTE he was talking about couples and said he had an aunt whose husband was unfaithful. They stayed married but LTE said she was never the same. Why? My theory is the feelings that prompted jumping in with a cannonball become different. Thanks for being here.😎
