- I am the wife of a recovering sex addict. My heart has been broken, and my dreams have been trampled under Satan's feet. I'm writing in this blog to facilitate my own healing; but much more importantly, I'm hoping to facilitate yours. Why is that more important? The answer is simple: strength in numbers. Satan wants to destroy marriages. I pray that I will be used by God to save them! There are so many hurting and wounded people in this world. If my husband and I never recover, you won't know, or care. Your life will go on just as it is today. But, praise the Lord, if we do recover (and we will!), you will know it!! We are wholeheartedly committed to turning the pain and scars of our broken marriage into a life-changing ministry. In addition to writing in this blog, and compiling recovery resources that you are hopefully finding to be very helpful, I am also starting on my first book. Look for "Poured," in bookstores (2009 - Lord willing!). If you are interested in supporting my time financially, please use the links provided. What I've sowed in tears, may many reap in joy! God is so good!

I enjoyed reading your blog. I am a 65 year old man and have been married for 45 years to the most wonderful woman in the world. I also am an addict. I have been addicted to porn since I was a kid when I looked at my forst playboy. Even after I was married I continued to buy them saying I only looked at the articles lol. When vhs came out I rented porn vids by the dozen. She even looked at them with me. When I discovered the internet in 95 when it was at its infancy the first thig I did was hook up to internet porn sites and have been doing it ever since. My wife installed spyware and caught me looking at porn. This was 2 years ago and she hasn't had sex with me sincem we don;t even hug anymore. She now has moved out (about 2 months) and tells me she will never forgive me for what I did. Even though she believes in and studies God's word. I have been more than repentant over this and have taken steps to overcome my addiciton. Yet she won' even talk to me anymore. I have even started a blog asking in poetry form for forgiveness. I sent her the link but she never acknowledged it. I would appreciate you looking at it and give me some advice, as I want to desperately save my marriage. It's at www.whatlipscannotsay.blogspot.com Pleas give me a woman's view of it. Thanks
