Would you consider yourself to be a sex addict? Or hyper sexual?

Is this common in NPD? Or in PDs in general?

I know as a Bipolar, we sometimes have hyper sexuality, which could lead addiction.

I consider myself to have a higher sex drive than what's normal, especially for a woman. As far as being addicted to sex, I never thought about it seriously. But I did google sex addiction when you posted this as I didn't want to give an ignorant reply, and I can't deny that I fit the bill for a sex addict.

I don't know if it's common in NPD, but I do know that promiscuous behavior is pretty common in BPD and ASPD and that symptom can certainly be a symptom of sex addiction.

I have personal experiences having been in a relationship with a narcissist that indicate they can certainly have issues in the bedroom.

I'll wait for our resident "classic" narcissist to chime in here. I don't know everything.

I'm gonna wait for the resident to chime in as well. Then I'll add my two cents.

I'm no resident N, but I've always been very sexual and have BPD traits. I bounce from one end of the spectrum to the other.

I had to laugh when I read this. It was like a whirlwind of thoughts and realizations for you in such a short paragraph.

I am addicted to pushing the limits when it comes to sex.

Atypical let's not confuse all narcissists when it comes to this topic please.... Unless what you mean is only self satisfaction for the N which I can understand.

That's all I meant. And you know me by now, I don't like to generalize.

I'd about all PDS having high sex drive...but us "cluster B's"...can't speak for every humanoid dxd w/ a cluster B pd, but myself BPD and most others I've met sitting on the group B bench..generally have high sex drives.. but I'm also a dx magnet..so I'd which if any of my dxs is attached to the sex stuff... ask me again tomorrow..cuz some other frittata part of me will probably tell you something completely different

I'm BPD with N traits; for me, very high sex drive. Lots of passion.

A Npd that I dated, called himself "insatiable."

I dated someone similar. As a result that's all she ever wanted to talk about. I hated it and hated her.

I was like that with "insatiable". He only wanted me for sex and I gave and gave. It was never enough.
I was hyper sexual with him partially because I was untreated bipolar, partially because he was not physical at all outside of sex.

[redsoxrule]

I admit I have a high sex drive. I've never had any girlfriends that were insatiable.

Never met me. ^

So...it just seems appropriate to say it. Anyone want to have sex? lulz

I should change that to "hypomanic or manic" insatiable.

I am down lately. Not feeling much of anything inside,. Kind of dead inside.

Domination is in my mind after reading all this. The old me would of been different the new me is only words. Chuckling to myself once again!!

Tell me what you would do to me?

Trouble, you are trouble!!!

Conquer and probably destroy. This equates to being the most understanding person you ever met. One who sweeps you off your feet like never before. One who gets "you" unimaginably. Feelings you never knew exsisted and keeping you wanting more. Giving just enough to keep it interesting and so much more intense. Then I'll leave when I'm bored and move on to the next new and exciting venture. Thus leaving you wanting more and when I do call once again it's even more exciting even if it's brief. Like I said once before don't hate the player hate the game. The true definition of the opening statement. Almost as if written by one with NPD. Screw Kodak!!! A narcissist creates REAL everlasting memories.... ha ha ha. I believe this intensity is so much better than a mundane relationship. Agreed?? Even if you hate the end result the in between is so much better!!

Interesting approach. Question do you have what it takes to back up such a statement? See I have self-esteem. lol

Of course I do !! The more self esteem the more fun it becomes. Come on now don't you know only things that are challenging interest narcissists??? Well at least this one for sure.

That happens with us Nons too. Sometimes easy things are boring.
