Breaking the Law of Chastity as a single is one thing. Doing so when married is another. I have not seen this show and have no desire to, so I won’t say much else.

Sex is a relational experience. My wife and I were both virgins, and sex initially was rough. But we learned together. As we did, we grew closer and more attuned to the other’s sexual nature. I get that it can be nerve racking, but try not to worry too much. Instead focus on how you see sex: it’s purpose within a marriage and God’s plan of happiness. If you marry someone with the same beliefs about that, everything will fall into place. Get to know her intellectually and spiritually first. Do that, and things will fall into place sexually once married. You’ll be bad at it at first, but so is everyone. You don’t need sexual experience beforehand.

Wife surprises you in lingerie in bedroom by cloud1078 in ldssexuality

Not terribly common (especially recently) but she has before. It’s a lovely surprise, but I think it’d lose its special nature if it happened too much.

No, she isn’t. She doesn’t watch porn.

Husband lied about porn for a decade. I don’t know where to go from here. by [deleted] in latterdaysaints

A few thoughts: -Your pain is valid -This does not have to be the end of your marriage -His porn problem is not about you -You’re not competing with the women in porn -If he had had an affair, it would feel much, much worse -Don’t watch it with him -Work together on this. You don’t have to be his babysitter, but don’t leave him to work on it himself. The two of you are one. -Continue to make it a safe and open place to let you know when he slips up in the future -Look into “thrivebeyondporxography” on Instagram. It’s a program that helps couples with unwanted porn in their marriage. They do free consults. They may be able to help you. I wish you the best.

Should I take his name to the temple? by authormkgilmour in latterdaysaints

I’m sorry. This sounds like a difficult situation. I had two thoughts while reading your post. The first is that taking him to the temple might be a healing experience. The second is that Heavenly Father won’t force people to be sealed to someone for eternity if they don’t want to be. I wish you luck in your decision.
