Theat's the cool thing about your blog. <BR/><BR/>My opinion on the matter: Don't entertain those thoughts. <BR/><BR/>Yes, it may be true that's what you want to do, and yes there is the inner turmoil saying "Do it" "don't do it". Listen to the latter. But what I learned, just in my own sobriety is that it's a fight...everyday...to get those sexual thoughts and actions under control.<BR/><BR/>U know, I have wild thoughts like that. Sometimes, I want to ram drivers with my car when they aren't going fast enough, but is that really the right thing to do? You gotta ask yourself the same.<BR/><BR/>I've also learned that my acting out starts with a thought or feeling.<BR/>Which turns into me verbalizing that thought or feeling.<BR/>Which turns into me doing it.<BR/>Then that turns into a habit.<BR/>My habit turns into a lifestyle<BR/>My lifestyle turns into my legacy, is what I leave on this earth after I die.<BR/><BR/>D<BR/>http://thefightofourlife.wordpress.comFightofRlifehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07775453100728076502noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7123027.post-75354209824851816822008-01-15T11:40:00.000-05:002008-01-15T11:40:00.000-05:00This comment has been removed by the author.FightofRlifehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07775453100728076502noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7123027.post-16185377822328317202008-01-14T15:26:00.000-05:002008-01-14T15:26:00.000-05:00WOW.

I didn't really get into my active addiction until after I was married, though, so I still hope there's a pure basis of real love there...I too need to learn how to surrender, so I won't act out again by talking to the man I had the most recent and most intense affair with. Thanks so much for posting this.Madalenahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08331359522755509679noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7123027.post-84379368211609604842008-01-13T22:57:00.000-05:002008-01-13T22:57:00.000-05:00"But I'm only as sick as my secrets.

Moving past this secret to a point where I love myself more than this, where I can find joy in some freedom other than this ... that is what I want."<BR/><BR/>Nothing but truth & beauty there...<BR/><BR/>As I once told Living Sobriety, like it or not, this recovery stuff is all about the honesty. And you put it out there, girl.<BR/><BR/>Thank you.Kelleehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14867732773223483189noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7123027.post-53479901056613407262008-01-13T20:58:00.000-05:002008-01-13T20:58:00.000-05:00I think that was the reason I got married, too, bu...I think that was the reason I got married, too, but I hope that I can provide a glimmer of hope that through God, albeit gradually and painful sometimes, we can be transformed.Jen R.https://www.blogger.com/profile/12480735969810649316noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7123027.post-51584021967706657612008-01-11T23:22:00.000-05:002008-01-11T23:22:00.000-05:00Rae, I have a fantasy of moving to a town where no...Rae, I have a fantasy of moving to a town where no one knows me and living by myself and never getting involved with anyone again. I know that wouldn't bring me peace, but when I'm in a bad place, that's where I go.Mary P Jones (MPJ)https://www.blogger.com/profile/10251787926841410344noreply@blogger.com
