Note from JoAnn: I have searched through my archives for stories that I have not posted. Some of these, such as this one, were sent last year or the year before. With Sex Addiction, unfortunately, the stories are timeless and we can all gain from the experiences of each other no matter when [...] [...]
Dear JoAnn,
I’m not married nor going out with a s*x addict. But I am attracted to someone who I believe is a Sex Addict.
He’s a 2-year old work contact who in recent months has become a personal friend. We share a lot of common interests – we work in online development and marketing [...] [...]
It was a little cathartic writing this. Thank you.
We met in 1991. At first all we did was talk. I was just out of a relationship that had ended badly and I wasn’t looking for anything but friendship. Over the course of six months we talked about everything, from politics to our beliefs about [...] [...]
Thank you so much for your website. I’m only a few weeks into finding out the truth about my husband’s Sex Addiction, so I’m still in the shock phase.
I met J a little over 2 years ago at a local hospital; he was a nurse and I was a volunteer on the weekends. For [...] [...]
I’m so glad to have found this website. My story is about how my husband has successfully managed his recovery from Sex Addiction, but the deep wounds that his addiction caused still remain. I have been married 8 years. Four years ago, my husband admitted to sleeping with prostitutes and strippers, as well as an enormous porn and sex chat addiction, during the first four years of our marriage, including during both of my pregnancies. [...]
To JoAnn, It’s so hard to not sob as I type this. I’m 24, married to a 34 year old sex addict. I don’t even know where to start.
I began getting irritated at his obvious porn addiction quite soon after I moved in. I would leave the house and know that while I was [...] [...]
JoAnn,
I have attached my story. I was divorced June 27, 2011 because my ex filed for it.
I was married for 12 years to a man who had been very abusive towards me. When I first came into his life I didn’t know that he was sexually deviant.
When I was pregnant with our [...] [...]
I recently discovered that my husband of 22 years is a sex addict. It started with his “out of the blue” request for a divorce in Feb. of this year (unbenownst to me, he was in the middle of an acting out binge at the time). [...]
It began with him closing down internet browsers and looking suspicious when I walked into the room, and I eventually found charges on our account for Adult Friend Finder. He would lie about his internet activity, blaming the charges on a “favor” he was doing for a buddy who didn’t have access to a credit card (really?), and the porn account was in said friends name (yeah right). [...]
Story of Lies, Deceit, Infidelity and Sex Addiction [...]
He is an avid sexter, telephone chat room visitor, and phone sex customer. We no longer have a computer of our own because I smashed it on the concrete patio one fine evening, but before that he frequented chat rooms there as well. I have good days and bad days. [...]
I was recently blindsided by my husbands sex addiction, so far admission of seeing to prostitutes. [...]
Dear JoAnn,
I don’t even know where to begin. I met my boyfriend almost 12 years ago, soon after I had graduated high school. We started dating almost 3 months after first meeting each other. I thought things were going good between us, until I found out he was masturbating all the time, even though [...] [...]
I first found out about my husband’s Sex Addiction in 1987. My husband was going to individual therapy and told the therapist that he had been acting out sexually with hookers and porn. [...]
“He’s Catholic!” Those were the words that got me to go out on the first date with my to be husband. My mother set me up with him and to all he seemed perfect. Handsome, athletic, driven, smart and soon became my love and my best friend. [...]
