Thanks Brian, BalishBun, mckell, Soliaree, and ECHOES. I really appreciate your support.

I think all the talk of pornography and my recalling those awful memories of trying to talk to him while he watched porn, brought back to mind the awful, trapped and hopeless feelings of being stuck in a miserable marriage. And during that time I was depressed, so maybe my memories just brought back my feelings from back then too. Things have been better since he moved out. It's like the porn talk was a trigger for bringing back all the associated feelings of the time.

Boredom: I think I was drifting away. I seemed not engaged in the conversation, not very attentive. Mind kept wandering. The discussion could not hold me. Or maybe it forced me away.

Sunrise, how do you really feel about his viewing porn while you were trying to talk with him?

I wonder if, in your worries, you feel the meeting may not be enough to protect your kids from the pornography.

I wish I was seeing my T soon. I need him.
