to be honest, based on a lot of our interactions, I believe he is probably a sex addict...and I've come to wonder if I might be a love addict (just a variation of a theme) and those seem to go together a lot of times according to articles I've read

I used to think I was love addict. In reality I was perhaps recreating childhood seeking love. I was raised by decent and good but emotionally unavailable people. Just seek familiar I guess. I also always wanted tons of sex. According to my t feeling strong desire and lots of sexual chemistry is often just a response to familiar (unhealthy attachment to unavailable people, more unavailable they are, more sex we want because our body responds to all we know-unhealthy). More unhealthy it is, more sex we want.
Growth starts with awareness. You'll be fine. You are strong and insightful. Hang in there
