It only becomes a problem once they get started, then the hunger only becomes more.

Compulsion to have sex more so when you have sex, isn't control over yourself.
Whether it happens today or tommorow, it is a loss of control. Just like an addict, who stays off the urge, cannot be said to be in control. Note that I'm not referring to a normal libido.

Dubious.

Yes, and then they go behind him to screw other guys to satisfy this addiction.

Sure you can, you just look for the woman that limps an awful lot, and has dark circles under her eyes.

Loyalty is a matter of character and not a matter of abnormal sex drive.

There's a good reason why sex addicts are at a high risk for suicide. There's a lot of shame, guilt, and self loathing that comes with ANY out of control addiction, and especially one that hurts other people.

Sure, but then, otherwise nice people will stand on other people's shoulders (thus drowning them) in order to get that breath of air, won't they?

Take a nymphomaniac: Does she really exist or is she an invention of man ?

Because if she really exists, my belief is that she is a gift of God to special men.

If you want a link, forget it.

Are you for real?

Edit: Im serious here, do you really believe what you just said after reading this thread.

DougP, have you followed other threads started by this person?
If you do you will soon come to realize that this person is real. <Deleted>

Let's keep things civil, folks, OK?

She (the nympho) is not worth fighting over. (Sloppy seconds and all that....)

Weak analogy, I guess.

Hmm...I guess I'm trying to make a point about how a nympho could love his/her partner very much, but then still go off and cheat just for the sake of sex (which they don't necessarily want, but do have a psychological need for), and feel bad about it afterward but have serious issues trying to not do it.

Damn, that grammar sucked. Does my point at least make some sense?

Barefoot Bree · 09-24-2004, 07:01 AM

Makes sense to me. And I think that's the basic problem - one of them, anyway, along with the partner trying and failing to "satisfy" her, and all the guilt and other bad feelings associated with that on both sides.

Bottom line: nymphomaniacs are real, but they are not the Greatest Gift they are cracked up to be.
