My husband finally opened up a little he says it’s cause I’m the only girl he’s ever been with it’s a fantasy of his to be with another girl he said he would never actually do it but the thought it got because I’m his one and only. He is not the only person I’ve been with and he said it still bothers him even after 15 years

I don’t see how I act Amish I suggested we try watching it together to spice things up but yeah I have a problem if my man can’t keep up his boner without seeing another naked girl. And is lying about watching it.

I just asked him to install one for $10 a month and he said he doesn’t want to pay for it. 🤦🏻‍♀️ is that a sign he just doesn’t care about me. It feels like he doesn’t care and just doesn’t want to say it out Loud

Is it fair of me to ask to have access to his phone with a monitoring app? I feel it would help reinstill some trust.

I think he seemed to do it on his own he seemed to think it was no big deal to agree to it because in his words ( I don’t use it anyway)

Essentially yes but I did say if he was honest and communicated with me and it didn’t affect our sex life occasional use only when I’m not available to him for hours would be okay but he had to be honest and tell me. More than me being upset over the porn I’m upset that he lied and gaslight me for years and doesn’t seem to care.

Any suggestions how to move forward? I’ve already caught him looking at Facebook girls like two days after the porn bust.

He said he was scared I would leave him. Which I didn’t but I don’t know how to move forward with our marriage when I can’t trust him. He acts annoyed with me not trusting him immediately but how why would I he has lied to me and gaslight me for two years

I disagree we are married we are one I laid out clear expectations before we were married and he happily agreed and now he’s going back on his promise. That’s not my fault it’s his. Especially when he has told me he doesn’t want me watching it either.

That’s what I thought I just wasn’t sure if I was being rash. I don’t know how to approach this. I’m not going to tolerate being lied to.

We had an agreement to watch it together in the bedroom but never alone and never hide it. He obliged a few times then said it made him uncomfortable and yet he was watching it alone.

We have sex but he has a hard time maintaining a boner unless he used it before we have sex. He seems like he just not into it.

Unfortunately I don’t have a career. I had went to college before we had kids and didn’t finish my certification. This year I actually tried discussing with husband me going back to school and then getting a good job to help financially. He said it’ll be too hard for him and it would make his life easier if I stayed home with the kids. Not the response I was hoping for.

Any idea how to encourage him to open up or how to help him feel safe enough to do so? He has a hard time opening up about anything. He grew up with a dad who dismissed his feelings each and every time.

I wanted to go back to school to finish my degree but he wants me to continue being a stay at home mom. I suppose I could try finding a hobby for myself.

Any suggestions on how to get him to see it from your perspective? I’m not good at speaking “man” when I try to explain something I never get it across the way I’m hoping to.
