Question: 

D-Day was 5 months ago after 20 years of marriage. My husband has now admitted he’s a sex addict and been very committed to his recovery, doing all the “right things” and I can see a change in him. My struggle is that I don’t want to be married to an addict and everything that comes along with that. It’s not what I signed up for when I said my vows. It feels like I woke up one day in a different life that I didn’t choose and don’t want and I’m scared about what it means for my future. How do I come to terms with my new reality and is it wrong of me to feel like even if he changes, I don’t know if I want this life?
