Hello, my boyfriend admitted to having a sex addiction a couple weeks ago after i went no contact with him after i broke up with him for cheating and lying. I offered support and compassion and broke the nc and its like his "addiction" went away.. which i know is not the case. I can't be more supportive or understanding without being even more an idiot than i already am. Could someone with sex addiction please explain to me what its like to have it? Ive caught him lying already about downloading grindr and even with proof on his phone he denies it. I just don't get it.
