Hi all. What I think some here might be missing when they say basically that “all he needs is his wife to be supportive and for him to have some willpower…”, is that it really isn’t that simple. I know this is addiction, definitely addiction to Internet, maybe not on,y to pornography, but each time I try to broach the subject his answer is that if in fact he is addict, which he doesn’t think he is, then the next step for ME is to go seek out an AA type room for spouses of addicts. He is totally absolving himself of any need to get help. I can already see he’s in total denial even about addiction to Internet in general, so I know if I’m more specific and bring up the accusation that he’s addicted to the bad sites, it will only be met with more denial. There is no “working on this together and being a suppportive wife” while I can’t even get him to admit he has a problem. He just spouts how helpful the internet is for so many different things, but won’t admit he can’t live without it. And believe me he can’t live without it. He takes it everywhere, to the most inappropriate places and doesn’t see anything wrong about it.
