I was part of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter day Saints, but I was inactive and I could not really tell you anything about Jesus Christ. That being said, I met a guy who I thought I loved and I thought he loved me back, with whom I broke the law of chastity with a few times.
This is a collection of stories, letters and resources from WoPAs (wives of porn/sex addicts) to be shared with one another and with our friends, loved ones and anyone seeking to understand our experiences. These are our own experiences -- in our own words. Owning our individual stories and loving ourselves through the process -- this is where healing is born.
WOPA Letter 24 - My Story

WOPA Letter 23 - My Story
They say hindsight is 20/20.
Looking back I can recognize the red flags and the slow descent of our marriage. You’d think I could have recognized the sharp drops for what they were, but it was just so natural to make excuses for them. It was far easier to blame myself for being paranoid, ridiculous, or at fault. Rebuilding trust in myself has actually been harder than rebuilding trust in my husband.
