My husband moved out last night. We have been married for 18 years. He chose his porn addiction over our marriage and wouldn't get help. I am so lost.

Hi Star48. I am so sorry for the loss of your husband. Unfortunately in many addiction situations the partner is lost long before they actually leave the home. When they are chasing their addiction they may already be gone into another place where they are not there for their partner. Still that must be painful to bear.

Surviving Your Breakup

Hope you can find a support group or therapist that can help you process your grief and feelings.

I'm in the reverse situation. We have also been married for 18 years. I have a porn addition which led to my wife wanting a divorce. I moved out in order to give her time to think and process. I'm seeing a therapist and while I'm getting better and learning how to deal with my addiction, my wife says she doesn't know what she wants. She said sometimes there are good days and other when she is mad at me. I finally convinced her for us to start seeing a marriage counselor, but from her actions, I 'm not sure if she wants to work it out. I too am lost not knowing where I stand or what my future will hold. As I type, she and the kids are at a party with our friends (I wasn't invited). I have a deep sucking chest wound of loneliness right now.
