I am so glad I found this forum!
I am new here and struggle with having a deep emotional connection with a man in my life outside of my marriage. We've had a physical affair for 3 years and even though he now tells me he loves me, I don't believe him. He is not my type, he’s not very attractive and doesn’t bring a lot to the table. In fact he has three other addictions and isn’t someone I could ever seriously see myself with, yet I'm still addicted to him. For me it's all about the emotional connection I want with him but I think it's obvious that he only wants sex and with anyone he can get his hands on. There are lot of reasons why I think this and I believe he is a definitely a sex addict along with three other addictions, work, drugs and alcohol. We are married to other people and I want to only be with my husband emotionally and physically and first serve God. However even though there are many negatives, and he is not my type, the pull to him is strong. Even though we don't have sex anymore and I'm getting stronger I want to be completely free of him. I would love to chat with other women who have had the same experiences and feelings so that we can be accountability partners and a support to each other.
Can't wait to hear from you!
Hope

Wow, what an introduction to a problem in life. Hell's Bells and puppy dog tails (an old idiom)I was surprised you were alone in this type of struggle. Trust me, you are not unique in this type of battle and struggle nor is it unique to only women. Far from the truth, it is a real struggle with men and women.
