I'm a wife dealing with her husband's addiction to pornography. I hope to be a resource for wives (and family members) dealing with similar struggles. Please join in the conversation and leave comments--even if you are here for curiosity's sake and are just learning about this kind of struggle! You can read my story here and the 4 things I think every addict's wife should know here.

Pomegranate Jam

My mother-in-law makes the BEST pomegranate jam. Or jelly. Whatever. Only the handwritten label on the top says "Pom" and the date. Pom looks just like Porn. It drives me insane. Every time I get out the absolutely amazing jam, I look at it and think "Porn."

Dear Porn: Do you really have to ruin my jam, too? Really?? Piss off.

Rant over. I'm seriously considering covering the label with a new one that says the entire word: Pomegranate.

However, I am very grateful that the worst thing porn has done to me today is ruin my jam. Counting my blessings. One by one.

    lol. My 2 year old son really loves popcorn, but he cuts out the middle of the word and asks me for "porn" all the time. :D

    This totally cracked me up. I would throw a jar against the wall and THEN change the label. (Except I probably wouldn't actually throw it because I'd be the one cleaning it up.)

    Ha! Throw it against the wall and THEN change the label. Love it. I actually have left the label as is in order to show porn that it doesn't own me. I can look at the label and remind myself that not everything is about porn: it's just jam. Is that a weird mind game?

    Mrs. A -- Popcorn. Hilarious. Can't wait to hear that one come out of my 2-year-old's mouth.
