Addict has been sober for almost 15 months, but I still don’t trust or forgive him completely. I am so hurt by all the betrayal and lies that I find myself questioning everything. I constantly check the app (which I’m beyond grateful for), but I have found nothing.
It’s a struggle between wanting to trust my gut because it’s been right so many times in the past but wanting to trust my gut because he hasn’t given me a reason not to in the past 15 months. Sometimes I wonder if it’s just too far gone or too late to continue…
Struggling to trust and forgive

accountabilitypartnerpornographyMight be good to talk to a trusted Pastor and Pastor's wife. Also Pure Desire is a good ministry to look into as well. I just did an 8 week video bible study with a group of people that talks a lot about feelings of betrayal and trust issues.

Where is his heart? If his hearts in the right place, you can see it from his actions/behaviors.
Having his heart in the right place isn't a guarantee he won't/hasn't relapsed, but it shows the path he's on and that he will get better *eventually* with sufficient time. You can help by preparing yourself to forgive him when that day comes.

I have learned to forgive, but sadly I don’t know how I’ll ever trust him fully. For the last 15 months he has given me zero reasons to doubt him. The problem is he gave me 15+ years of lies and betrayal…. I refuse to believe it’s too far gone but I’m right there with you . 💔
