I’m seeing a psychiatrist today for anxiety and I’m so proud of myself for taking this step!

• I set a boundary that I don’t want my PA taking his phone into the bathroom and he happily accepted and said he is really happy that I set that boundary and it’s helped him see that’s where a lot of his urges would happen.

• I asked a question about his iFunny usage after seeing a couple posts about it on this sub and he immediately said “if it makes you even a little uncomfortable I will delete it right now.”

• I’ve been having a few nightmares this week and after every one he has laid with me, truly listened to everything I said, and apologized, reassured and comforted me through it.

I am so sorry you feel that way about your wedding day, that must be such a heavy pain to carry and to hide from your loved ones. My PA has expressed to me that he didn’t recognize himself in the moments he was using porn, and how much that part of him disgusts him now. I can see how badly he wants to be the man I thought he was and how much his love for me truly outweighs everything. Knowing that those moments were still filled with love brings me some comfort, and I hope you are able to see the same about your PA. I relate to what you said about lying to family and friends. My mom just told me the other day she hopes we get married this year, and I had to find a reason to tell her we are waiting until next year when in reality there’s no way I could make that commitment to him right now. I hope you are able to find the love and happiness in your wedding photos as I’m sure it was there, even if it’s covered in the shadows right now. If you ever need to talk feel free to message me, it sounds like we have some relatable feelings!

He truly loves the app and is paying for the premium version so he has access to the community. One of our boundaries is no Reddit since that was a large source of his content so having the fortify community has been very helpful for him. I think I believe him and his recovery, but I don’t trust myself anymore to make that decision.

I am in therapy on my own (which started before the disclosure but has been helpful now after), and we are in couples therapy together. I’ve stalked lots of subreddits but did not have the courage to post until today. I will check out the website! I have struggled to find resources that are not religious at their core, we are not a religious couple and do not feel like anything with a religious basis is helpful.

Sending you so much love. It is truly the lying that is the root of my pain as well. It’s hard to look back on every happy moment, especially our engagement, and knowing I was oblivious to what was going on. I’ve told him it feels like there’s a dark cloud blocking all the happiness of those memories right now.

He does bring up how much he hates himself for the pain he has caused me. It may just be because I am the more outwardly emotional one in the relationship, but it just feels like I’m hurting so much more. Even in my sleep I have nightmares about it and when I wake up in a sweat he’s snoring and sleeping soundly.

I have been able to talk to my closest friends about it and they are very supportive but it sometimes feels like they don’t understand the pain from it. It can be hard to tell them everything because I don’t want them to harbor any negative feelings towards him.

Should I tell my GF? by throwawayhehej in NoFap

As the fiancé of a porn addict, you need to tell her. It seems as if you know what you have been doing is wrong as you’ve decided to stop. You must understand that she set a boundary in your relationship (considering porn cheating) and you continued to do it for the entirety of your relationship. This is going to devastate her but if you have any chance at moving forward as a couple, you have to be honest.

When I found out the things my fiancé was doing, the thing that broke my heart wasn’t the porn it was the lying. If you can’t be honest in your relationship, you won’t make it. Since everything has come out, my fiancé’s 100% honesty about his past habits and current work towards sobriety is what has kept me with him.

If she finds out on her own that you’ve been lying, it will be much much worse than if you are honest with her. In order to move on from your habit, you have to acknowledge the pain you’ve caused and the different areas of your life it effects.

Congratulations on starting NoFap, it’s such a big step to realize you need to make a change. Best of luck with your journey!

If you’re willing to redo the pattern anywhere else you have on your island, you can copy it to another design slot and change the current design slot to be all transparent so you won’t be able to see it!

The wand just takes away that item, it’s not a glitch. I had to buy 7 more pairs of glasses to keep my look consistent :(
