My Name is Lotus and I am a Sex Addict

Topics: sex addict
Ok, well not really. But I've started to broaden my perception of the term "sex addict". I know plenty of people who stay in relationships that might be less than beneficial aside from the sexual aspect. I know plenty of people who HAVE to date constantly because they need to get laid regularly.
This hinders one from being able to actually grow and learn how to interact in a relationship based on more than sexual attention.
Do you fit into any of these descriptions?

@Lotus: Hi Lotus. Nice to meet you.
Focus on other things and work very hard. Try to climb a few rungs in the corporate ladder or moonlight working on an old dream of yours. The more diligent you are, the less sex will enslave you. -
I stayed in my shitty marriage strictly for the sex. Now, I'm single and realizing how shitty the dating scene really is. Ugh. (I need to get laid)

I have been broken up with my ex for one month, and I'm starting to feel it. I'm not a sex addict (or am I) I just have become used to the physical release and the contact. I'm going out on dates, but Ihaven't met anyone "sponge worthy." Not sure what I am going to do...even my mailman looked kind of cute today...Oh no!

Isn't sexuality a funny thing. I can't see how leaving yourself sexually frustrated all the time could be seen as a good thing for a person. How someone deals with that is another matter. There is no one size fits all for that problem.

Hi Lotus.
Being enslaved in sex is really a bad situation. To people who are suffering from this, I suggest they should focus on more productive things. Try to find you passion (not sex!). Treat sex as a love making activity with our partner, not an addictive activity to satisfy your needs.

"I know plenty of people who HAVE to date constantly because they need to get laid regularly." ummmm, no, because I don't date but I DO get laid regularly. Yes, I'm a sex addict. I'm not trolling the streets looking for lovers but I do keep an active POA list and if I do start seeing someone, it's game-on, whenever I want it.

I do not know if I lost my appetite in sex but believe it or not we seldom go deeper into the art of making love. I am not gay but really we do not go further into that most of our times we just talk and have a bonding together.
...maybe time will tell! -
I am not a sex addict and I have no issues staying fateful. I have a hard time leaving my husband (whom I love) because the sex is so fvcking amazing. We fight a lot and take it all out on the sheets. I mean writting this is turning me on, lol! maybe i need help?

Well that's not a sex addiction....I think depending on the degree of issues you and your hubby have...staying because the sex is amazing (I'm sure among other reasons) is really what I'm referring to. I think the clinical definition of sex addict is really too severe, and that to some degree a lot of people can consider theri connection to sex addictive...

I think it's only an addiction if it starts taking over your entire life. If your every waking moment is spent thinking about sex, talking about sex, how to get more sex, where to get more sex, who to get more sex from, to the point where it becomes destructive to yourself or those around you, then I think you may have a sex addiction. Having a high sex drive is different.
