118: When She Says, “If You Loved Me, You Never Would Have Watched Pornography”

When a man struggles with pornography, addiction or habit, it’s devastating to his wife.   She will express her hurt and pain to him hoping that the behavior will stop, but when it continues to happen, it creates hopelessness and despair.   In those moments, it's easy for her to interpret the situation as ‘he doesn’t love me or care about me, what’s why he keeps doing it.’   When that is how she interprets his behavior, that creates even more pain in her heart.   But what if there was a different way to understand this situation and why he’s doing this?   In this episode, I share one of the best ways I’ve seen couples navigate this issue, develop a stronger bond between each other, and create closure from the past.   For therapy with Sam: Send an email here to get more information – [email protected]   Follow Me on Instagram for daily tips and tools you can implement to overcome pornography addiction   Join the free, private men’s Facebook community here for Q&As, live trainings, tools, and support: https://www.facebook.com/groups/toolstoquit   Want access to a free course I created for my podcast listeners?
