Sarah McDugal | Wilderness to WILD | You Can’t Fix His P0rn Addiction @SarahMcDugal | Uploaded February 2021 | Updated October 2024, 9 hours ago.
Porn addiction thrives on deception, manipulation, secrecy, adultery, self-serving, lack of intimacy, confusion, fear of abandonment, emotional disengagement, exploitation… It not only thrives on these, it drives them and cultivates them in a marriage. These elements are the opposite of godly love, honor, protection, respect, and cherishing of one’s spouse.
His addiction to pornography was not caused by you as his wife, and it absolutely cannot be fixed by you, as his wife.
Porn addiction cannot be fixed in couples counseling.
Or co-dependency counseling.
Or anger management classes.
There is nothing you as his wife can do to make him less addicted, or unaddicted. There is no version of yourself that can successfully compete with, or win out over, the images and videos on a screen.
That’s not how addiction works.
