How does pornography harm a marriage?

"It may be cybersex, but it can feel like real infidelity to your partner," says authors Mark Chamberlain and Geoff Steurer. "There's nothing virtual about the damage pornography does to a relationship."

The good news is that the marriage itself can be a couple's most powerful tool in healing in a pornography habit. This helpful, informative, and insightful book will help couples learn how to harness that strength to make their marriages more fulfilling than they ever imagined possible.

Love You, Hate the Porn helps couples draw together when pornography is threatening to tear them apart.
•Shows couples how to identify and address vulnerabilities in their relationship.
•Offers healing advice for spouses.
•Provides help for the struggling partner to avoid relapse.
•Focuses on how to make the marriage relationship strong than it was before.

An increasing number of people are turning to the Internet for pornography and related activities such as illicit chat rooms, cybersex, solicitation of prostitutes, or worse, predatory behavior towards minors. In most cases, secrecy enables and perpetuates these problems. These behaviors have devastating effects on marriages.
