This was just a theoretical question. But this actually happened but in the reverse. My husband was physically and emotionally abused by his stepfather. In addition, he took him to peep shows as a child and there was always pornography around the house. I didnt know all this before I married him. But as you can imagine, he has a lot of problems (of a sexual nature, including an addiction to porn). After many years of urging him to get help, all to no avail, we are finally separating. Our sex life was practically non-existant. In spite of all this, he is a good father to our kids. I really feel I did my best to get him help, but why do I feel like a failure? I know I shouldn't. I was sick myself in the mid-90s because of a condition similar to a brain tumor. Back then he stuck by me, took me to the hospital, didnt complain (much) when I couldn't work. I stuck by him too over the years, even through his affair. But I just want a normal sex life and an affectionate husband. Am I wrong?
