Lets be honest, are you a SEX ADDICT?

I enjoy sex, but it's definitely in balance in my life.

No. I think about sex a lot, but I don't think I'm an addict.

The first time I went to visit my boyfriend I stayed with him for a week. I'm not sure if its just because it was new to me or what but I always wanted to have sex. I would wake him up in the middle of the night because I wanted it. I'm pretty sure I'm a addict, but he doesn't mind

A couple years ago I would say Yes i am a sex addict, but recently I haven't had those urges I once did to really get myself going and thinking about sex all the time.

There's a clear difference between addiction and liking sex a lot. I'm definitely not addicted to it.

"sex addiction" is a serious thing, but I think I might be a candidate for a mild diagnosis, simply because, even if I have no real desire for it I still NEED to try to get it, or if I see someone who I'm not REALLY attracted to I need to see if I can get them to want me. Idk why, it feels similar to a compulsion tho so honestly yea I think it might be an addiction

Your point is well taken and 'wdanas' also pointed out the serious nature of "sex addiction". All the posts have shed light on this topic. 'Airen Wolf' also made some good points on the subject. Thanks for sharing.

No. I love it, want it all the time, but I'm not going to freak out, take advantage of people, etc. in order to get it. There's a huge difference between loving something and being addicted to it. If I don't get it from my husband I'm not going to go out and find someone else to give it to me. I'm "addicted" to being with my husband, I love our intimacy, but am I addicted, only in a loose form of that term.

I have seen what sex addicts go through and that is not me. I like sex and I would love to do it daily however that is as far as it goes.

I don't think I'm an addict. I won't do anything to risk my life in order to have sex. I just like it more then maybe the next person.

I'm addicted but I have it under control. I don't let it rule my life, I don't go out every night and have one night stands with strangers, I don't put myself in dangerous situations, I make sure that my partner is a safe person, and I don't go insane if I don't get it every day (I have gone 2 1/2 years without before)..... Even though after a week I can get a bit cranky.

I never really was sex addicted, but when I hit 40 yrs old, it's like a switch turned on. Now, I'm 42 and yes, I obsess about it. My husband's low libido doesn't help. I think that's why I obsess so much. I've never had to go without, but I do a lot now, so that makes me want it even more.

I love having sex with my hubby, but even when we do it "a lot", it never has, and never will, come at the cost of things that also must be done....paying the bills, working, taking care of the family, pets, etc.

An addiction is an UNHEALTHY use of time or activity that causes HARM to normal life responsibilities. In our case, an active sex life ENHANCES our relationship and makes ALL those other things go WAY better.

So...while I am a gal who CRAVES a good romp with my guy, in NO WAY is it an "addiction".

Okay, maybe I'm reading this incorrectly, but I'm really not understanding what the actual question is.
A true addiction, for instance, is someone having sex with their wife/girlfriend, then going out and spending rent money they cannot afford, to purchase the services of a sex worker, or it is someone choosing to buy porn instead of paying the electric bill. THAT is destructive...like ALL "addictions".
