Question

Before I discovered my husband’s secret life of pornography and addiction to anonymous sex, I believed I was the only person he had any sexual experience with. I was a virgin when we married, so he is the only man I know sexually. He told me he was a virgin as well. Now that I realize that everything I once thought about our sexual past is not true, I am having a hard time connecting to him. I feel like there is a wall between us because he has so much experience and I don't. Any advice for retraining my thoughts so we can reconnect sexually?
