Sex Addict?
Quote From: neecieco1I feel so sorry for you. You are wearing blinders! You cannot help your husband "get better". He is a sexual addict, you will not change him. I have been in the same position as you, lived and loved a sexual addict. My ex destroyed my self esteem. I would love to be able to love again, but along with love comes trust and I don't know if I will ever trust another person. I pray for you and your children. A sex addict is just that, a sex addict. Will he turn into a pediphile???? Or is he already? You have small children, you are responsible for those lives. Do you really think that what he is doing does not influence them? I pray that he does not molest them. Or for that matter, any other children. Please, just remember, who he sleeps with, you sleep with. That is the one thing that finally made my decision to divorce my ex. He was a Preacher also. That should say something. There is a difference between sex addict and porn addict. And what makes you think he will turn into a pediphile? I know that what he does influences them, which is why this is such a huge problem. HE is the one who wanted to change this.HE is the one that asked me to help him. He WAS molested by a pediphile and has every intention of doing everything he can to keep that from happening to our children. People can recover from addictions if they want to. I'm sorry that you had to go through everything you did. And I'm even more sorry that you can't trust again and that your experence has made you think that anyone who has this problem will become a pediphile or a cheater. I assure that I'm not wearing blinders, we have been seperated, and that I'm doing everything I can to protect my children. Sometimes you just have to take a chance that it really can work. And as Dr. Phil puts it, I'm not going to walk away until I've earned my way out!
