Just found out

Hi All,

I just found out that my husband has a porn addiction... when we were dating he mentioned he looked at porn but i had him promise that it would stop. He made it sound like not a big deal at the time... Now that were married i casually brought it up since a friend of mine is struggling with her boyfriend. He confessed that he started looking at porn again recently after being layed off from a job for a couple of months. We're strong Christians but i can't help feeling betrayed and dissapointed. Am i wrong for this? What can i do for help? He says he hasn't looked in a month and that it's not out of control but how can i believe that...

Sorry if you get two of these....I am trying to figure out what my last post did. My short time, I will say this. If he hasn't betrayed your trust, trust his word. The biggest frustration that I have is when she doesn't trust me that I haven't slipped or done anything wrong. This stems from my past slip ups, but it does not help. I also suggest talking to him about how you feel when he does look or what it does to your relationship....in your eyes :) Lastly, trust in God. Let him guide you to your answers. Love is a key factor, and God understands how we think and feel! Hope this helps. Talk to you another time! :)

I am not so religious but I'll tell you one thing - If he wants to get away from it, he should know how to deal with the void - when he's alone and all and has nothing urgent to do. He has to find something engaging and interesting to do.
He probably also has masturbation addiction which is a bigger problem than porn addiction. But you'll not wanna believe that easily.
Try www.sa.org (It is especially for Christians)

I a dealing with what has happened to me still after 12 years. My ex-husband was a porn addict to the point he lost multiple jobs, 1 thousand dollars of 1900 calls, lied and only God knows the rest. iT RUINED MY SELF-ESTEEM AND RESPECT FOR MYSELF. I began stripping and doing porn myself as some sort of I will get you back thing which just ruined me more.I left him and have continued on my wrong path and now I am looking to write a boom to help women in this area-being the porn star and the hurt woan all in one-I have alot of insite.
