Should Past Porn Use Stay Hidden?

What happens when single women start attending a married guys’ breakfast after Mass? How do you heal a marriage after a wife discovers her husband’s past porn use? Doug goes to the mailbag to answer these questions and more. Listener questions and comments: Betsy — I wouldn’t want to know. It would be too much for me. (14:34) Rosie — I think it is irrelevant to bring up watching porn if it happened in the past. You are not defined by your mistakes. (19:48) Marie — I was married to someone who was into porn for 20 years before the marriage, and it continued during the marriage. We are divorced now. (22:25) Steven — I struggled with porn before marriage. I confessed it to my wife, and she has helped me stay pure. (28:02) Lisette — It would have been nice to know during the engagement process, but I don’t think I would want to know now. (32:34) Marie — I think one of the reasons porn is so bad is that it gives a man an unrealistic version of women. My son pointed out that women also do this with romance novels, and that also hurts marriages. (39:55)
