Sex Addiction? Or Just Filling the Void

Posted by becksFLA on January 26, 2008, at 10:45:24

I don't think I have a sex addiction, but I do think about it all the time, search for it on dating sites, bars, yes, it's embarassing. I hate it. I settle for much less than I deserve, and I always regret it. HOWEVER. The more and more I think about it, it's not so much the sex I am addicted to, but rather the void I'm feeling after moving to a new city where I don't know anybody, or have opportunities to meet people. I am without a car, and public transportation is non-existant. The only people I know are my parents whom I live with until I get my car back or finish college, and a few "aquaintences" through work.

I am the type of person that craves close friendships, close relationships of all kinds. Come to think of it when I lived back in Europe for so long I had 4 or 5 friends that were like family to me, and I went a long time without a steady girlfriend, but I wasn't like this. I really think I'm just using this sex as a temporary bandaid to my life empty of relationships/friendships. I don't know where I'm going with this but if you can think of any suggestions or thoughts I would greatly appreciate it. I've tried my best at looking for church youth groups who I know would always be accepting but to no avail. I don't know where else to look. Right now I'm basically trying my hardest to transfer to new york city for my final year where I won't need a car, and I know I will meet people easier.
Thanks
