Knowing how to help your partner who is struggling with porn can be really confusing... What's your role? Whats too much? What is healthy and whats unhealthy?
These are questions we hear all the time and we hope to bring some light to how you can help your partner as they recover from porn addiction.
This episode was recorded to answer a question we got directly from a listener, here's what she wrote:
“My boyfriend told me a few weeks ago that he struggles with pornography and in the midst of processing that I’m also trying to understand what my role is in his healing and how I can be supportive and encouraging while still maintaining an appropriate relationship given that we’re not married. I know walking through an addiction together can be painful and can also bring couples to a really deep level of intimacy because it’s such a personal issue, and I want to be wise about how emotionally intimate we become at this point in our relationship”
We cover 3 major insights in this episode to help answer her question and shed light on her situation. The 3 areas we touch on are:
1. Having a Standard With Grace (Truth & Grace)
2. Focusing On Emotional Intimacy
3. Really Getting To Know One Another
We have a STRONG passion for relationships to thrive. It was actually this passion that fueled everything we do with Secret Habit. We want couples, especially pre-marriage, to get on the same page so they begin their marriage ahead of the 8 ball... This is why we record episodes like this and continue to release new episodes every week!
