AIO by telling my husband to see a therapist after I caught him jerking off by peeping in my mother's room when she was changing? šŸ‘Øā€šŸ‘©ā€šŸ‘§ā€šŸ‘¦family/in-laws

EDIT: This has been an overwhelming experience for me posting this. Everyone is telling me that I am not getting the severity and should leave him or tell my mom. I'm going into a downward spiral of thinking that maybe if I gave in to his fantasies earl8, he might not have turned this way. I know it's probably not right to think this. But it keeps coming to my mind all the time I rejected the things he suggested in bed. It's time for me to go home from work now and I feel like a 1000kg stone on my chest.

I'm 26F and he's 27M. This happened when my mom was staying with us for a while. My dad passed away druing covid before I married my husband, so my mother stays with us and my siblings alternatively.

I haven't told my parents or his parents about this yet. But I'm very very angry and shattered.

He says it's normal for guys to have such thoughts about females, even relatives. Idk what to do. He acts like nothing happened.

I know I shouldn't have, but I went through his phone secretly the next day and found a hell lot of a mother-in-law p*rn(some of it non-consensual category).

I have been thinking if I don't satisfy him physically. I am kind of conservative when it comes to all this stuff. He says that because I don't do things he wants me to do he has to look for other outlets. He keeps making a point that he was just watching and didn't do anything.

I work from the office and he works from home so I was scared when I left home this morning.

We're from a very conservative family. His side of the family is very well to do. My mom feels that we got very lucky as a family that he decided to marry me. She'll probably just shrug it off and ignore it like it's no big deal. For her he is like a knight in shining armour who chose her loser daughter somehow.

u/the_greengrace 19h ago

You are not a loser. With all conpassion, be careful how you speak about yourself, to yourself. You deserve kindness, we all do.

Don't put others' comfort or needs above your own. It sounds like it's become a habit for you to do so (feeling guilty about not putting your husband's "needs" ahead of your own, for example). That usually comes from a dysfunctional upbringing, but bad habits can be broken. It sounds like your mom didn't raise you to feel valued, and that sucks. Don't take her errors on as your faults. Repeat after me: other people's errors are not my faults.

Now- your husband. One, those are not "needs" he's talking about they are wants. Two, yours are just as important as his. Three- no, not "all men" are like him, not "all men" are attracted to their MILs or family members. He's full of shit. Not "all men" are boundary violating creeps who sneak peeks at unsuspecting family members while they are vulnerable. You are NOR.

Four- he is responsible for his behavior. If he decides to do something gross and inappropriate, that's on him. It has nothing to do with what you did or didn't do with him in your shared sex life.

Five- consider getting out of this messed up situation.

Right now you're reactive. Now, it's time to get proactive.

u/FuckinFruitcake 18h ago

havenā€™t commented in a while but felt i need to say this. your mom deserves to know regardless of whether she is a bad person or not. she has been victimised by your husband without her knowledge, and this could escalate. you need to gather the courage to tell her, and need to evaluate whether you want to be with a predator because thatā€™s what he is. heā€™s not just having ā€˜fucked up fantasiesā€™, heā€™s acting on them and refuses to acknowledge that sexually violating your mother is not okay and has an impact on you too.

edit: you asserting your boundaries and saying no to stuff in the bedroom is okay, and it is not the reason why heā€™s this way. he clearly has an unhealthy relationship with sex, and saying yes to stuff you donā€™t want couldā€™ve led to a violation of your sexual boundaries.

18

u/TicoSoon 18h ago

Let's be clear. If you DON'T tell her, you are allowing her to be sexually molested. She did not consent to being viewed while naked, especially hot as a spank piece.

Are you seriously sitting here clutching your pearls about telling her over the fact that your husband is the perpetrator of sexual assault and SHE is the victim?

That absolutely makes you the asshole. Until you tell her, you are not only complicit in his assault, but you're encouraging him to continue assaulting your mother.

You're NOR but you are an AH.

51

u/Fuzzy_Medicine_247 19h ago

She's literally at risk of being raped by your husband. He's so warped that he thinks what he already did is no big deal at all, and he fantasizes about raping her.

It is not right for her to be staying with him for even one more day. You shouldn't stay with him either.

Consider that maybe you are not sexually connecting with him because a normal relationship is not what he even wants. It's his shortcomings as a husband that are causing the problem, and he's blaming you.

u/raydators 20h ago

Mom will be excited that a younger man finds her sexually attractive.. and it's not abnormal. If women knew of all the sexual kinks men have they'd be stunned . She even admits his many attempts to get her involved . Honestly , it would be weird if he wasn't attracted to a semi nude female in his house. My opinion is the daughter needs to loosen up. It just sounds like he's a normal male,who's sexually attracted to most of the females he comes into contact with . Just like 9/10s of the males . Sounds more like pent up frustration from suppressed desires . And that's on the daughter . I'm sure the situation is embarrassing , but abnormal , no.

u/Weary_Cup_1004 12h ago

Please know what he is doing is very violating and wrong.

what you said about your own sexual preference is valid! You dont like "out there" stuff and porn and that is 1000000% valid and positive and you are not less of a wife for it. You deserve to be with a man who accepts your sexuality exactly as it is and loves you for it . Those men exist! And you deserve to never be abused and you deserve the dignity of not having a peeping tom for a husband.

I wish conservative families would take it way more seriously when the predators are within their own midst. Because its terrifyingly too common that they shelter and give a pass to men who do this to their own families.

You and other women deserve to be as safe in your home as you expect to be in a public restroom.

It sounds like you have low self esteem, raised by a mother who doesnā€™t respect or value you, and married to a predator who chose you because they could easily manipulate and take advantage of you.

u/syrencallidus 10h ago

I'm sorry you're young. But a man who will masturbate to an unconsenting and illegal act!! (Peeping tom) will escalate to RAPE when this little sneaky act no longer gives him the thrill.

Everyone is talking about other stuff, but this needs to be said to you clearly cuz ur still kinda defending him. And I get it. I really do. I was trapped for 15 years with someone similar. Someone who recorded in a bathroom because "he wanted to see which cat was peeing on the rug" and it only got worse.

Just seriously. He will rape someone. Do you want to feel responsible for that too because you couldn't satisfy him?? Of course you don't, that's the abuse talking. Abuse isn't always ugly or mean, it can be twisted and sneaky.

I hope you can free yourself and keep your family safe. I made it out, and it's hard, but you gotta do it.

u/Apprehensive_Bake_78 9h ago

Someone who loves you and actually cares about you would do whatever they needed to make you content and feel safe.

u/-Gadaffi-Duck- 16h ago

This is non consensual voyeurism, A CRIMINAL SEXUAL OFFENCE.

No matter what, under no circumstances is committing sexual offences an acceptable outlet and especially not just because he has a fetish.

Your husband has committed a SEXUAL OFFENCE against your mother. You need to inform your mother and leave your SEX OFFENDER husband.

He is a SEX OFFENDER plain and simple.

Now do you understand the gravity of the situation? has the light now come on?

22

u/christmas_bigdogs 18h ago

He doesn't have the hots for her. He has violated her privacy by watching her change and has masturbated to the image while leering. This is disgusting. It is a violation. She is not safe. You are hiding this knowledge because you are 'embarassed'? Stop centering yourself for one minute and prioritize your vulnerable widow mother who is being violated in your home.

He's trying to convince you it's normal...your husband likely has more sickly desires that you have no idea about and he is just trying to slowly work his way into making you tolerate and allow them. It's disgusting. His actions aren't normal. Intrusive thoughts are normal, feeding into them is not. Acting in them is not. You don't want to have children with this man. You are under reacting. You need to see a therapist to help you manage your response because you likely have a weird future to navigate while you are with him

Under reacting. I would divorce my husband in seconds flat. This behavior is not normal and very likely illegal. So something did happen and I absolutely believe this isnā€™t the first time he did this. Itā€™s just the first time he got caught. If he would do this to your mother, I really donā€™t think much would stop him from doing this to other women. Are you going to be the wife that stands by him as he gets arrested for this? How are you going to look that woman in the eye knowing what he did to your mother? How are you going to look your mother in the eye for that matter? These are the questions you need to think about. You know the right course of action as difficult as that may be. He betrayed you and your family. Not only that- heā€™s making you think itā€™s your fault.

If there was a real issue linked to physical intimacy, he shouldā€™ve communicated about it calmly with you, instead of doing those things and looking at horrible shit online. The bare fact that he instantly feels the need to justify it by saying itā€™s because you donā€™t do things just proves the point. And talking about this by saying ā€œhe has to look for other outletsā€ shows a lack of respect towards you and women too. Itā€™s not because he didnā€™t do anything physically (in his opinion) that what heā€™s watching is ok. I send you a lot of support, I know how difficult a situation like this is. I experienced it

Itā€™s normal. I know thereā€™s more dimension to a situation like this, especially if youā€™re married. Easy way would be to say donā€™t tolerate such a behavior and leave him. But I know itā€™s not always that easy. I just hope you can see your worth and understand you donā€™t deserve that. i experienced the p*rn part, even in my family, and being a woman with a very low self esteem, it hurts and destroys you. My own dad also did this to my mom and I saw the whole situation. My mom never left and thereā€™s not a day in my life where I donā€™t feel sad for her. She couldā€™ve left but she stayed. I canā€™t stand seeing married people being disrespected like this. When you will decide to tell your mom (because I know itā€™s not easy either) be fully honest and donā€™t lighten his actions. I wish you the best

Sexually violent men have a habit of blaming other people for their violence. This is not your fault. This doesnā€™t happen to all sexually frustrated men. You are not responsible for his sexual urges and actions. He has acted on these urges already, without consent. It only gets worse from here. You are not overreacting. Itā€™s time to act.

His lack of remorse and dismissive attitude is alarming, and you need to seriously assess if you feel safe and respected in this relationship.

He says it's normal for guys to have such thoughts about females, even relatives.

It's fucking not.

Break it off.

It's one thing to have certain kinks you could talk about fulfilling these with your partner and a whole other thing to watch someone irl and jerk off to them.

The latter is fucking creep behaviour and is far from being normal.

Itā€™s not normal for guys to fantasize about relatives anymore than it is for females to fantasize about relatives. Iā€™m sorry but your husband is a sexual predator. He may not act on it but he wishes he could. Do you want to wait until you have a daughter? Get out now

u/Just_Me78 18h ago

Definitely overreacting, it is quite normal activity for your husband to perform such an act, particularly if as you say, you have been prudish and Vanilla in the bedroom which has forced him to view porn and a particular porn category has influenced his mind.

Said no one ever!!!!!

Your husband is doing some whacked out shit and your mum needs to know about it.

u/No_Scientist7086 19h ago

NOR - But you and your family sound gross. Your mom would be excited that a younger man finds her attractive, by jacking off to her naked body without her consent? Give me a break. And itā€™s ok bc heā€™s rich? Girl, please. You all sound crazy. He picked the right family, I guess.

No. Itā€™s not. Dead that right there. IT IS NOT. It is also not normal to act on it ANY way. This is not okay in anyway.

OP. Your husband committed a crime when he peeped.

He got caught and instead of being apologetic, guilty and ashamedā€¦.he said what now?

He is telling you he has done this before to either you mom or other women/family members. He is hoping youā€™re naive enough to believe him and/or too ashamed to leave him or telly your mom(you honestly donā€™t need to out that in her head).

He is hoping youā€™ll think itā€™s normal so you will give him a pass for future situations(in his mind). Your husband js not okay. You need to start looking into divorce.

Btw op, he sexually assaulted your mom.

u/Quirky_Ad_1596 18h ago

You arenā€™t getting the severity. You should leave him and tell your mother. No amount of ā€œgiving in to his fantasies earlyā€ would have made a difference to this kind of behaviour from this kind of person. He would most definitely have ā€œturned this wayā€. You had your reasons for ā€œrejecting him in bedā€, you donā€™t need to bend on that for anyone at anytime. Get rid of him and that ā€œ1000kg stoneā€ will leave with him. Nothing about any of this is ā€œnormalā€. Watching and getting off on NON-CONSENSUAL in-law p*rn is highly problematic. Now, you live in fear of leaving him at home, with YOUR MOTHER, while you go to work. Itā€™s all so damn wrong, and well past time to put a stop to all of it. What are you waiting for? To find him doing this kind of shit to your niece, your sister, your kids? Nope. Leave leave leave him yesterday.

Itā€™s Reddit so Iā€™ll askā€¦ are you absolutely sure thereā€™s no chance anything could be happening between your mom and him. And no, donā€™t do a knee-jerk response of ā€œshe/he would never!ā€ Look at Reddit, it happens more often than it should. A lonely widower and a wealthy, white knight of a manā€¦ he works from home and sheā€™s there. Crazier stuff has happened. And heā€™s obviously put a lot of thought into it.

Girl! Itā€™s not about what youā€™re willing and not willing to do in bed. Heā€™s still responsible for his choices. However, if you can get to the bottom of this and save your marriage you may need to find a sex therapist that can help you guys with your incompatibility. Just food for thought!

Good luck!

u/Poo_Poo_La_Foo 16h ago

I think that indulging in fantasies online and actually acting them out in real life are wildly different things.

But he has crossed a line here - peeping on someone is gross and illegal. Imagine how she would feel if she knew!

I would check his phone to make sure he's not taken non-consensual pics of your mum. And ask her not to stay again until you've sorted whatever you're going to do next...

Wow. NOR.

But itā€™s not like you should divorce him over it. He just needs to get it under control.

Probably needs to go easy on that porn. Iā€™m guessing heā€™s watching a lot of stuff like familyxxx, familystrokes, etc. that shit will fuck you up if you watch too much.

u/SpamLikely404 15h ago

Iā€™m gonna say that I donā€™t think youā€™re gonna tell your mom about it. I wonā€™t shame you for that. But I do believe you need to leave him. Heā€™s from a rich family? Chances are he thinks he can get away with whatever he wants. Right now, heā€™s just creeping on her changing. Later, it will be more. Leave him before this gets really bad.

When youā€™re -always- the one who needs to change, I can guarantee youā€™re not the one with the real problem. He is manipulating you. You ā€œnot meeting his needsā€ isnā€™t about you, itā€™s about his inability to be responsible for his own actions and behaviors. He doesnā€™t want to take responsibility. Iā€™d be looking for ways to part ways and get him tf out of your life.

You are UNDER reacting. This is perverted and disgusting and itā€™s NOT normal for men to have sexual thoughts about their mother in law. But he didnā€™t just have THOUGHTS. He invaded your motherā€™s privacy while she was undressed and jerked off to it! You CAUGHT him.

If your poor mother is still there, take her and get a hotel room, IMMEDIATELY. Then call a divorce lawyer.

Nothing you did or failed to do caused this. Leave him. File for divorce. This is the tip of the iceberg. You say heā€™s well off. You arenā€™t a prostitute.

Liking the idea of something and wanting to watch a p*rn version is fine. Its a fantasy, and doesn't hurt anyone.

What he did was technically sexual assault, harassment at a minimum. Your mom deserves to be in a safe space, and if he is doing that out of convenience, then there's likely a history of this behavior.

You need to leave, tell your mom what happened, then tell the police, then his parents.

This is DANGEROUS and can lead to something worse if it isn't stopped now.

u/justthankyous 19h ago

It is not normal for guys to have thoughts like that about relatives. Healthy men are capable of compartmentalizing and distinguishing between women they are attracted to and women who are just friends or relatives. People can have kinks and they largely don't have control over what those kinks may be, but they can separate those kinks from their interactions with real people in their lives.

Your husband's kink has nothing to do with you or whether or not you are satisfying him sexually. That's ridiculous. It's one thing for you both, as a couple, to have an understanding about him watching porn because he maybe has a higher libido than you do or you aren't interested in roleplaying his mother in law or non-consent kinks in the bedroom. It's another thing entirely for him to let that sort of activity bleed into real life like this.

Your husband spying on your mother is kind of a big deal, it's a violation of her trust. He knows she doesn't want to be spied on, he doesn't have respect enough towards her to care.

I agree therapy is the bare minimum of what should happen here.
