"He also says it's just a fantasy and has no bearing on what he feels for me. We are going to both individual and couples counseling, and my husband was diagnosed with ADHD, which can affect impulse control. He told me he would pursue these sites less and hasn't done so when I'm around, but I know he's still texting women because I have caught him messaging on Instagram and Reddit."
