Need some help guys… devils tempting me. Last night I got triggered and watched some porn ruining my new streak of 9 days. Today I’m starting new and I seen a post of my ex from another friends account, and she’s looking amazing . Brought back so many feelings, and guilt. I just got married and in my heart I knew I had strong feelings for her still that I thought I could move past. I know the timing of my moment of weakness and seeing this is devil working hard. Has my intrusive thoughts of what ifs going crazy.

Hey man I’ve had the same thing, almost lost my love because of it. You may have loved her a lot, but that’s in the past and it’s not something you can go back to. You’re married, you picked someone else who you said is someone you can spend your forever with. That means she’s even more special. It’s hard to see all the good someone can be when you’re going through the motions with them, but you also don’t realize how good they were until they’re gone. Focus on how good your wife is to you, the love you have, and remember that you choose to love her everyday, it isn’t something that comes easy every time. I’ll keep you in my prayers, stay strong for your wife, but also for you. Because even if you don’t think so, you deserve better. You deserve to be able to live life honestly, guilt free, and happily. And don’t knock yourself down for losing your streak, focus on this: you went for 9 days without porn. I am sure that’s more than you have in a while. Over a week. That is an accomplishment. Something they tell AA members is that you need to look towards your next goal. You went 9 days, you can now go further. You got this man. Stay encouraged and love your wife. It might help to also talk with her just about your struggle, or if you wouldn’t like to do that, something I did was delete my social media, took a break. And I’m better for it. Stay strong man
