If you go on recoveryzone.com you can check out this cool updated survey to see if you are considered to be a sex addict. Why would you want to do this? Well, I'm thinking from how if a person likes to view porn then maybe he or she should give it a look. Since I've been pretty straightforward about my sexuality, I feel a lot more normal. I talked about it with a girl and she gave me advice to not bring it up by telling me that it's T.M.I. (too much information). I was like cool, I don't have to ever bring it up then with the girls. As long as I'm functioning normally and feel stupid about how I engaged in it and not struggling with it anymore, then I can move on nicely.
I've been on an online chatroom where the topic was about sex and I just opened up there. Nobody told me to really shut up or anything. I was messing around too mostly while laughing and when I made one of the girls on there laugh, I made another guy jealous of me. He sent me a private message about how annoying I was. Okay, that was then and I don't still go on there but man, it was so funny to mess around by talking honestly about my sexual issues. Overall, I guess it depends on who the people are.
When I took the test, I just answered yes to one question, spent considerable amount of time surfing the web for porn. When I got back the results, it said that I'm almost in the 0 percent tile for sex addiction. Yeah porn can seriously damage cravings for sex addiction. I can testify to that so that's why I don't look at it and struggle with wanting to go back to look at it again.
This is what I've found out about myself and it makes a lot of sense now. It's not that I'm addicted to sex or porn, it's that I desire to have sex and plenty of it on almost a daily basis. I'm seriously wired this way while ignoring being physically attracted to this hot friend at the same time. It's just managing myself I guess one could say.
One of these days, I'll marry a hot girl while were in love and have her all to myself and then still find regular time for it even after having a few babies.
