Re: Husband watches porn

If he is really sorry but still does it it could now be an addiction possibly. What that would mean is good counselling and hard work, maybe even prayer if you are a christian. What you have to be careful about is it going undergound in the sense of him carrying on with it but covering his tracks. It is so available these days, even at the touch of a button on a phone, so being delivered of it will take honesty and accountability. I think that once wives become aware of it they will know when the husband has been doing it because of the atmosphere in the bedroom. It does affect the bedroom after a while. Fireproof is quite a good dvd to watch on the subject, although it has a christian background. It does portray the husband's addiction well though and shows his struggle to get free.

It can be overcome but one has to really want it. It is one of those things that you don't know you have been caught until you want to come out of it. Some men have the attitude that all men do it which is not very helpful and far from true, so who he speaks about it to is important.

Personally I think you have to really consider separation as that could drive him further into it not having you around and may not be the right thing if he is already repentant and struggling to beat it. You need to work against it together.
