(Original Air Date: 3/20/07) With a 50 percent divorce rate in America, do people getting married think that signing on the line will make their relationship better? Karrie's husband of 10 years, Ben, cheated on her with an ex-girlfriend and is so obsessed with strippers and pornography that he has lost jobs and dragged them into thousands of dollars of debt. Ben admits to being a sex addict, but says he doesn't know how to stop acting out. Is Ben the only one to blame for their crumbling marriage, or did Karrie set up their union for disaster? Then, Sean and Defina have only been married for two months, but she has already caught him cheating twice. She is now consumed with checking his cell phone, looking in his car and even smelling his pants to see if he's been with another woman. Is Sean ready to make a change, or should Defina get out now? Can these couples learn to love their spouses and be happy in their marriages? Share your thoughts, join the discussion.

Separated and hurt

I recently moved out of my house from my husband who I have been married to for nine years. He started a new job a year ago, which he hates with a passion. Ever since then, he has come home in rotten moods and has mde me feel horrible. Every day I just feel like everything I say and do is wrong and he screams at me about insignificant issues. My dad dies June 7th and within two weeks of his death, my husband was back to screaming at me again. I snapped and just said I couldnt take it anymore. I packed and got my own place. He has emailed me little bits and pieces about his broken heart but he has done nothing to try and help repair the damage. I have been going to thereapy every week and have invited him to one session. He tried to make the time frame and could not and has asked to reschedule. I dont know if I should give up or think there may be some hope
