Wife kicks hubby out for masturbating - cougarguard.com — unofficial BYU Cougars / LDS sports, football, basketball forum and message board

Young BYU couple. Temple marriage. Married a year. No kids. He's had a history of off and on struggles with porn which he seems to have a handle on--apparently at least several months in the past but it's had quite a toll on her. He tells her he masturbated, and she kicks him out, threatens divorce over it.

poll coming

He should say good riddance. If she doesn't work with him over that, she's probably got other issues. Now I'm not excusing his behavior if the two of them decided that's unacceptable behavior but it hardly rises to the level of kicking him out, and it sounds as if she has sexual hang ups.

I endorse this post. How will she react when an authentic crisis arises in their lives?

Sounds like she is also tired of his porn addiction, which would be understandable. You say it has had quite a toll on her....in what way? Does he treat her poorly as a result of his viewing porn?

Hard to make a call with the limited facts, but it sounds like we all concur that there is no way that she is divorcing her husband solely because he went Onan the Barbarian once or twice.

Or we at least agree that there is no way she should divorce him for that reason.

I'm sure there are plenty of BYU wives that wouldn't hesitate to leave for that reason.

Fair, "should" is the more appropriate term.

I have a feeling that BYU wives are into some freaky stuff. They have all been recently unleashed, so they are more likely to engage in homemade vids, pics, telescopes, etc...

Slightly off topic, but what's the consensus definition of "porn addiction?" To put it another way, what behaviors would one exhibit if one were "addicted" to porn?

You should seek a counselor so that he may help overcome your situation. Counselors won't refer to "addiction," but refer to "use", "misuse", "abuse" and "dependency". You will have to evaluate whether your use constitutes abuse or dependency. Let us know if counseling helps.
