That is disturbing to me. You and he are newlyweds and he is angry when he looks at your picture? I think this goes beyond his porn addiction. If one partner is so angry this early in the marriage, it doesn't bode well. (When anger is there, it often builds up slowly over time.) Can you two go to a couples therapist and work on some of this? A good therapist could help with the anger issue, the porn addiction, sexuality in the marriage, and perhaps refer you for individual therapy for your eating issue (please do not lose more weight--a size zero is not a "fat cow"!).

My ex-husband was also into porn. I was shocked when I discovered his habit because he rarely wanted to have sex. Even when we first met, he had extremely low sex drive, and it didn't increase as the years passed. Then I find out he is wasting his few and far between moments of arousal and being in the mood on his hand instead of with me? I felt very betrayed.

Good luck to you.
