Hi, I just joined, I really need some help.
I'm been a Christian for around 20 years. In the last 4 years I've been separated from my S2BXH. I wear silver purity ring because I promised God that I would never sleep with someone that is not my husband.
It's only a matter on time before the divorce is processed and final.
I've been to therapy to deal with issues I've had as a child and adult and problems in my marriage. I'm in a much better place now and getting on with my life.
The problem is that recently I've been thinking about sex a lot. I'm acutely aware of the opposite sex all the time. It never seems to let up no matter where I am in my cycle.
There's a guy that kind of likes me, I won't see him but I'm just afraid that I'm going to end up doing something I'll regret. I talked this through with a close friend and he thinks that I should date him but not go anywhere private with him. I won't do this I don't think, but I just would like to know what to do about these feelings I have. How long will this last, and why do I feel like this?
Thanks in advance.
P.S. Sex outside marriage was always a big no-no for me, something I thought I would never have a problem with. I'm ashamed of my feelings that I keep trying to justify.
