How would you feel if your husband did this?

My husband and I established a no porn “rule” in our relationship. Long story short I found out he was watching porn. I found a screenshot and for sure thought he cheated on me. The screenshot was just of a naked girl getting it from behind. Anyway, he told me that it was just some silly joke like a picture his friends sent, something stupid. I didn’t believe him and still thought he’s cheating. So I had him ask his friends for the same photo along with the joke, each guy said oh sorry man I deleted it. What a coincidence that every guy deleted their messages the same day.

So eventually my husband admits that he asked all of them to lie for him which they agreed to so that I wouldn’t find out that he’s watching porn.

Honestly, I was more pissed, hurt, and embarrassed that he involved his friends (who I’m around often) and had them lie for him.

Now my question is, how would you feel if your husband did this and now wants to go on a guys trip with all of the above friends? I know I can’t stop him. I also don’t think I can trust him or any of them.

But the double standards come in when I want to have a girls trip. But also, my friends have never lied for me. I’ve always been honest with my husband and I would never involve my friends the way he did.

Edit to add for Kristelle - this boundary was initiated by him. I was very confident coming into this relationship, he was not. He was extremely jealous to the point that me getting my hair ready seemed suspicious, or I was looking for attention if I wore shorts or even a tank top. Should I allow him to sit back & watch porn when I’m not allowed to?? There’s a double standard there.

Interesting of you to assume that I initiated this boundary or even coerced him into agreeing. Insecurity is not my issue, manipulation, lying, and double standards are.

Thank you for being concerned about “my man’s” desire to watch porn instead of looking at the more serious issue here. Or maybe you don’t see lying & hiding things as an issue🤷‍♀️
