TO THINK MEN WHO cant stay faithful are just shaggers

[RocheMoutonee]

who want to have their cake and eat it
not sex addicts?

i mena he wouldnt have been there this time last year would he?

Yeah, have to say I am a bit over the sex addict thing.....

Me too. I mean I'm sure there are people who have super high sex drives. But why can't they masturbate? There's no excuse for shagging about on your partner.

Sex addicts generally wank themselves raw, have frequent one night stands and can't stop pestering people people for sex, unable to quit using phonelines or prostitutes etc. Shaggers are more about the person rather than the sex: and the person is not usually another woman, but Themselves. That is, they are selfish twunts who have a bit on the side because they feel entitled to, and their sense of entitlement is bigger than any respect they have for their partner. IMO.

Sex addiction isn't so much a high sex drive as a deep neediness though- a craving for the adrenaline rush of sex and the sense of excitement of "pulling", or the degrading feeling of more sordid encounters. It is compulsive behaviour linked to extreme insecurity and the distraction of thrill-seeking. Wanking alone wouldn't really hit the spot.

agreed

Totally off topic, but how can his son be 6 months old, if he was a newborn (judging by the picture) last February? Is he caught in some kind of weird timewarp?

At least it sounds like he's facing up to what he's done and the hurt it's caused. I would hope this clinic focuses on "What you did and how you're going to change your attitude and behaviour" and not "Poor you, you've got an addiction, of course you can't help it" - the description of it sounds a lot tougher than some of the celebrity "rehab" nonsense that's out there.

I think in the US they're quicker to make bad behaviour into a "medical" issue, but if that ets people through the door, and dealing with it, then at least that's something.

good pr move and that's about the height of it.

Huh all these slebs claim "sex addiction" when they are caught sticking it where they shouldn't.

I'm sure most of them are simply dirty slappers.

it is part of the whole puritan weird sex obsessed american dream. no one makes mistakes they just slap a name on the behaviour they don't like and invent cures.

It's been reported that he's not attending group therapy meetings, goes out whenever he fancies it and that his mother is staying in a hotel just down the road and he often visits her. He's just trying to save his image. Dickhead.

i think you are stating the obvious in your title.
