Pornography Addictions and Marriage
I have been married for 12 years. I am planning to separate and divorce my husband as a result of his addiction to pornography, honesty issues, trust issues, as well as other issues.
For years I have known that something was wrong in our marriage. At first I suspected cheating or an erect tile dysfunction however he adamantly denies both. I however NEVER suspected pornography.
When things started to go sour a few years back I asked him to seek mental health counseling. He was diagnosed with anxiety and depression for which he takes medication.
I will not blame myself, my looks, my body or anything else I have done. I totally understand that this is HIS problem. But what I don’t understand is how a person who claims to be so happy and not want a divorce is willing to lie, sneak and throw it all away for pornography??
I have known for a long time that he is a compulsive liar but I thought we could work through it.
Is he a lost cause? How does this happen to someone? How did he get this way?
