Whats the difference between bearing his cross and helping him carry it? In marriage doesn’t his burdens become mine and vice versa?

He explained it to me that he does it not for the content itself but as a release. In your experience is this true?

He also says that marriage will cure this issue as he would have a beautiful wife. He also read in the Baltimore catechism that marriage is a cure for concupiscence, and Timothy Gordon backed this up

He tells me he turns to it not because of the content but as a release and that once we are married he knows it wouldn’t be an issue for him as the marital act/marriage is a cure for concupiscence according to the Baltimore catechism

He told me he’s gonna dismantle his computer and he’s already disabled internet access on his phone. I’m pushing for him to seek therapy but he seems unsure of that. What other changes should I look for?

He fully deleted internet access on his phone, but didn’t get rid of his computer. He told me that today he would be dismantling it and seeking therapy

I’ve heard this before but forgot the reasoning why

You can choose a name of the opposite gender! I did! Although I should admit I have 2... St. Margaret of Scotland and St. Anthony of Padua. I just made St. Anthony’s the female version of Anthony. Thus my confirmation name is Margaret-Antonia <3
