First time user...

 I am new to this site and thought I would give it a try...I don't have much to lose and could use some support.  (Just knowing that I am not alone is a huge help so far).  I married the love of my life in September 2010.  We had gotten into arguments about his porn use a few times prior to getting married.  I wasn't necessarily against all porn (and said I would compromise), but it bothered me that he enjoyed teen porn.  I am very disgusted by this and expressed my thoughts.

trying to stay strong

I just need advice from a woman whose husband has overcame this addiction even though he was not willing to start it but is now glad he did? Is there any hope out there?

Everything Coming to a Head

This is new to me but I've known my husband since we were 15 and we just got married in June. $ months before we got married I found out he had a porn addiction. I was furious I thought it was me I still do. He promised not to do it again. It's been continuing ever since then\. He told me he stopped looking at it for over a year when we first got together , but then one of his coworkers told him about a site which I just recently found out was another lie. He wasn't told about it he overheard his coworker talking about it.

new and need support

Hi, I am new here and am glad to have found this. I am struggling with wanting to save my marriage, but also am tired of the porn for over 20 years that my husband has watched. To make a long story short, I have started counseling and a sanon group. I have told my husband that I can no longer tolerate this. When we were first married he also cheated on me and went to strip clubs. I don't know what he does now. I hadn't thought he was doing these things in many years, but as I learn more about porn I see that it is a possibility.

Just found this site :)

I just learned about this ministry because I saw Shelley's interview on the CovenantEyes blog.  My husband married me because we got pregnant after only a few months of dating, and it's been a hard long process to get to 5 yrs.  We're both Christians and love the Lord, but because we were working out so many other issues it never occurred to me that porn was a part of his life.
