confused - "pornia" is the biblical word used to descibe marital unfaithfulness. It's the same word we get the word "Pornography" from.
'nuff said, I think, as I have no idea what your husband thinks about Christ, the Bible, or even "sin."
FWIW, pornography is NOT "harmless" and "victimless."
God bless.

I just wanted to say thank you to those of you that posted your comments. I really appreciate them. I listened to the advice and I talked to my husband about the problem. I think what happened was that I overreacted. Yes, hew was looking at pictures online but it was just that pictures. I know that not every man is made this way but alot are. Some men are just into looking at that pictures of women. I don't understand it and I don't like it. He swears it was not leading anywhere. He had no intention of looking to chat or try to contact anyone. He truly seems sorry. And I am sure that from how I have reacted to things in the past he felt like if he did look at anything he felt he needed to hide it. My mom said that I am making it that way, but she also sees why I worry.
As for the text message, he showed it to me and said he didn't know who it was from. That he had blamed some of the guys he works with of sending it. I've seen some of the messages they think are funny or what not and send them on. My dad said that I wouldn't believe some of the stuff him and the guys he works with sends through email and texts. And he'll be 70 on the 31st <img src="/ubbt/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />
I told my husband that obviously I am still not over the past and if I can't feel like I trust him maybe we should go our separate ways but that I need to figure that out for myself.
For right now he is sleeping on the couch and I have an appointment for next Thursday, after Christmas. We'll see where we go from there. Thanks again for your posts!!!
