Porn and Aduletry
Question
Good afternoon. I would like to ask your opinion on a matter of adultery. If a man watches porn, satisfies himself and refuse to stop, is that grounds for a divorce.
Answer
Shalom!
Thank you for your question.
While the behavior you describe is unacceptable, and forbidden, it alone is not grounds for divorce if the marriage is otherwise healthy.
Even if the marriage is indeed otherwise healthy, the marriage would be much better if this behavior would cease.
