I've been fighting the urge to view pornography for many years, especially during my marriage. Eventhough my wife tried to express to me how it made her feel, I never really listened. This last week, it came home hard. This first time in all of our arguments over the subject that I have felt shame and remorse for my actions. It has left a hole in me that I didn't imagine was possible. I can't even begin to imagine or pretend to imagine how she must feel. My wife is a wonderful person and mother, and I've thrown everything away. I never meant to hurt her, she means the world to me, but I did and I'm sure that because of my actions she will leave me. I am asking everyone who will to please remember me in their prayers and ask God to find a way for her to stay with me. I am seeking counseling for help, and above all I am praying for God to help me both with the struggle in my marriage and to take away these cravings and desires for pornography.

Hey! I think you feel the same way my husband does right now...we have been together for 6 years and his pornography addiction has caused him to do some very nasty things including trying to touch my 13 year old sisters breast while she was sleeping......so just stay strong and seek as much help as you need!!!
