writes: I split from my husband 4 years ago after being in a very passionless marriage for 10+years, no kids. I have given him plenty of time to adjust to life without me and now I am filing for divorce. He remains in complete denial. Tonight I dropped by the house we used to share together to pick up a few things. He was not expecting me, but I came in through the garage (which makes alot of noise when activated). I called out to him upon entering the house and he said he was in the study. The house was dark inside and when I walked in, I found him completely naked, sitting at the computer staring at a bunch of naked photos of me. I was completely grossed out. I may not have called ahead, but he had plenty of time to grab a pair of sweats, or a blanket and cover up. Needless to say I got the items I came for, and we talked briefly about refinancing the house to get my name off the property; and I asked him when he was going to get rid of all the naked pictures he has of me so he can "move on" in life. He said he had no intentions of ever being with anyone else. The whole thing was creepy because I haven't had sexual feelings for him for many, many years, and it seems like after 4 years he would have learned to cope better than this. But he's refused to seek counseling or get out and socialize and even try to have a normal life. I realize I can't shoulder this burden, but I just worry that he'll do something to harm himself once he receives the divorce papers and even though I don't want to be married to him, I don't want that to happen! Any advise?? Does his behavior seem weird to anyone else? Maybe I just don't understand how men are wired, but I'm concerned that he's becoming creepy.

Perhaps he would have moved on if you weren't dropping by the house you shared to pick up belongings you should have taken with you four years ago. Maybe your failure to make a clean break has lead to his denial.

it might seem creepy to you but I don't think it's not normal?? Some men need visual sitmulation to play... Maybe his needs to be realistic & a real life memory to get his rocks off?? Maybe he was hoping u would see him & jump on?? But u agree with everyone & say ring/knock the door before u enter the house x

four years is a very long time for any one to hold on. if he does somthing wont and cant be u'r fault. you have moved on.but his choice is to never be with anyone else. so be it. he must have loved you, and that takes time even for a man. as for the naked pictures and masterbating at least he is doing it in the private of his own home. you should have called.

Awww, well i don't know the reason for the divorce in the first place, but from hearing this story.. I feel bad for him, some women would die for a man like that who would actually miss them when they leave, cause a lot of men are A-holes. Sounds like a man with a heart, think twice..
