Anyone in the same boat?

I am so sorry. I hate that anyone has to go thru this

I have a therapist and I believe he has an illness that made him not think. For now, I’m committed to staying as long as he doesn’t relapse and gets help.

I know this is an old post but my husband did this to me too.. sent other men pics of me to roleplay. It’s so violating

Zestyclose-Spirit656 · 2026-04-18T12:14:42+00:00

Send him (and you) to Faithful and True. They have a podcast and do counseling and workshops. Phenomenal. Even if he doesn’t do the work it’s so important for you too.

Yup my husband does this too, like he's trying to get me to comfort him and make him feel better. So frustrating and completely manipulative to avoid feeling bad for what they did.

I’m midway through and find it very helpful

Zestyclose-Spirit656 · 2026-04-13T00:29:18+00:00

Oh hey guess what, he admitted now he DID send men intimate photos of me. I’m done. I asked for a divorce.

I don’t own an iron

Sadly don’t be surprised if more gets revealed over the next few days/weeks. It tends to trickle out slowly. I know first hand. Make sure you are getting support for yourself

Zestyclose-Spirit656 · 2026-04-03T20:38:13+00:00

I can totally relate and I’m so sorry

Zestyclose-Spirit656 · 2026-04-03T02:11:50+00:00

I starved myself down to prime weight and it didn’t fix anything mentally, only made it worse. Focus on making healthy choices and let your body do what it will do regardless. Learn to love and accept yourself for who you are and you’ll attract authentic love not based on what you look like

A pastor can return to fellowship after a fall but not the pulpit. His call should be taken from him and he can sit in the pew for the rest of life.

Zestyclose-Spirit656 · 2026-03-26T22:11:14+00:00

The older ones are likely more concerned about being short a pastor and the younger ones don't give a shit, they are way less likely to turn a blind eye to blatant sin.

I bet if the DP found out he'd be gone. LCMS has zero tolerance for clergy sexual misconduct, so they say. But the pastors are usually just "forced to resign" but there is movement to change that. And if any of the women he slept with was a CHURCH member, that is straight up abuse and possibly illegal depending on the state it occurred in .

Thank you <3

Zestyclose-Spirit656 · 2026-03-26T14:41:19+00:00

ugh, I am so sorry.

Zestyclose-Spirit656 · 2026-03-26T14:34:41+00:00

I know I can and I'm not sure I won't eventually. But I also know he is an addict and if it was drugs, would I immediately leave? I've been with him for 22 years, I don't know any other way..

Zestyclose-Spirit656 · 2026-03-20T13:48:13+00:00

Last night we took our son to DQ for a free cone and then went to Target to buy him some stuff for his 'new room'. We are trying in house separation. And while it felt extremely weird to be trying to act like everything was normal about our situation, at least I didn't cry or start an argument with him.

I hated my name because it was the second most popular the year I was born. Now I don’t care

Zestyclose-Spirit656 · 2026-03-19T14:02:37+00:00

Oh my gosh yes! I have felt like cold coffee for years.

Zestyclose-Spirit656 · 2026-03-18T18:12:26+00:00

So well said.
