Let's Talk about Sex

Disclaimer: This post is about sex, sex addiction and relationships.
Hey, if you're looking for porn or pornography in this blogpost, you won't find any!
But if you want to read about this very controversial topic, read on...

Sex. What a powerful force it is.
It can create.
It can destroy.
It can free.
It can enslave.
It gives pleasure.
It gives pain.
It's like a glue.
Let me tell you how...
A healthy relationship is enhanced by it.
A bad relationship can be continued because of it.

We've all known someone who's with a person that's not a good person for them but "the sex is oh-so fantastic!" The lure (even addiction because hey, sexual pleasure is, after all, very addicting!) keeps one from seeing the reality of how bad the relationship is in so many other ways.

So, yes, sex is like glue. Isn't it funny how bodily fluids are like glue too! Maybe this is a little TMI!?

If you're looking for real love, jumping into sex quickly is not the best way to do it.

Sex, when it's good, can get and keep you hooked in a relationship that is destructive.

Wondering if a current relationship is good for you? Here's a little experiment that might help you decide. Try spending a good amount of time with that person without sex and see who they are as a person when you're seeing them outside of or beyond a fog of sexual pleasure.

Remember: sex is a form of energy-exchange. That energy might not always positive. Though practicing safe-sex might help protect you from STIs, it won't protect a person from an energy-exchange that is negative or damaging. Nor will it protect you from becoming sexually addicted to a person such that your judgment clouded from how you and your life are being affected your relationship with that person.
