I quickly learned that I could block specific websites and receive weekly accountability emails.

Each week, month, and year that passed made it easier to live a life free from pornography. Every betrayed partner is dealt two blows at once when they discover their spouse s sexual behavior. Blow number one is the gut punch of betrayal; a breathtaking breach in trust that changes your relationship in permanent ways. Blow number two is the shocking realization that your partner has been extravagantly and expertly lying and manipulating reality in order to cover up their behaviors. Often, it is easier to notice and think about others what they are doing, not doing, what we don t like about them, etc. Yet, if we find ourselves focused on and complaining about what someone else is doing or not doing; we likely have a need. This is the most important stage recognizing that what we are feeling is likely less about them and who they are and what they are doing and more about a need that we have. Remember: Your betraying partner should be there for you. Surrendering to them or a process is not a thing. This is not war. Your betraying partner should make sure you are supported into trusting them. No demands and no isolation will do for trust-building. It s okay to begin with 5% trust and let your partner earn more trust until you reach your comfort zone.
