Question by Broken: Is he a pervert? Should I leave?
My live in bf (father if my son) has had a porn addiction problem since I met him almost 7 years ago. He swears he will stop & does for a while but a few months later I find it on his fone again. He has killed my self esteem & trust towards him. About 3 months ago he took it a step further & began to STARE at girls everywhere we go, I no longer enjoy going places with him anymore. His actions towards me have never changed. He still is affectionate & constantly tells me he loves me BUT a few months ago he stopped wanting sex for about 3-4 weeks.
2 weeks ago he expressed that he wanted to change & no longer hurt me so he attended a men’s church retreat & he seemed to have came back a changed man however for the past 3 days I feel he is fighting his urges. He’s beginning to look again at girls. Not heavily stare like before but he does look. What disturbs me the most is that these are really young teen girls he looks at & the porn he had been watching was also 18 year olds. He is 26 & I am 31. I feel disgusted & dnt want him touching me or around me after I see him looking at these girls. When I try to leave he cries & tells me he is working on it & asks me to please be patient & help him instead of fighting. I will admit it is not as bad as before. I really don’t know what to do anymore. He is a very good provider & excellent father plus I really do love him, I’m just tired of all this drama. Anyone seen a person like this ever changing?
