Also...it is common for people who have been sexually abused to become sex addicts. It would seem logical that these people would avoid sex, and some do...but many turn to sex because the abuse was the only way they could receive love.

Please do not think I am being harsh or cruel. Sex addiction is a very serious problem and is not easily solved, but it can definitely be addressed in healthy ways.

I struggle with sex addiction too, but I am now in a happy and committed marriage, having the best and most fulfilling sex of my life...totally monogamous and happy to be so. I have found that there are healthy ways to feed an addiction...just as exercise can be an addiction, but it can also be healthy.
