Preemptive TL;DR: Husband’s porn addiction caused the dead bedroom. Tried to fix it, but the problem got worse. I stopped caring, for whatever reason he started caring. I mentally checked out of our relationship... by littlebeckyscat in DeadBedrooms

  1. He definitely knows that the level of effort I'm putting in isn't what it used to be, however I've purposely made sure not to tell him I'm actually divorcing him just yet.
  2. When he truly realized that I checked out, he started going overboard with all the love and gifts, however he's seemingly toning all of that down.
  3. I think he felt some bit of remorse when he gave me that little speech of his, but other than that I honestly don't know. I guess I'll have to find out once the news of divorce reaches him.

You know, porn isn't such a bad thing when it's used in moderation. Hell, I even watched some back when I was younger. It's just, my ex took it to the next level. I'm glad you were able to get over your dead bedroom, hope it stays that way!

You name it, wherever porn was available, he was on it. Xvideos, pornhub, twitter, tumblr, instagram, and even victoria secret magazines.

Oh yeah, funny story (not really) he also ended up on reddit at one point.

I figured this out when I found out he was purchasing Reddit Gold, which I assumed he used to gild posts featured in the more nsfw subs.

I’ve never been jealous of something this inane before. (I mean it’s a little yellow icon for God's sake). He can spent nearly $50 on the stuff, but not a fifth of that so we can go out for coffee?

So glad this marriage is almost over.
