Confession from friend

Dana

Hello and Happy New Year! 

I hope everyone is OK. I need clarification on something. Yesterday, my male friend confessed to me that he has a serious problem with sex. He explained to me the reasons why he didn't check the Signal account for a few days. He told me if he starts reading and writing, he won't stop. He also mentioned that he wants more and more and more and more, and he has to control the hunger. 

What does it mean when he confessed that to me? Your response will be appreciated! Thank you Blush

    No problem - you're welcome.

    Don't apologise for using that word - doesn't bother me - it's just that since the site was upgraded a few weeks back, our posts keep disappearing and we get a notice saying they will appear once moderated - sometimes they do show up later, but sometimes they never appear.

    We think it's due to some sort of "spam filter" but we don't know why for certain or what sets it off. So I'm now avoiding using certain words, and avoiding copying links into my posts or copying and pasting text into them.

    Anyway, hope you find the forum useful and that you don't have any problems with it.

    Hi Dana

    Like Catwoman, I also don't know what this means - but as she said, maybe it's because he trusts you and he needed a confidante. Maybe he wanted to see what your reaction was, to gauge if it's a bad thing or not? You could ask him why he told you.

    I don't understand what the link is between these Signal chats and his *** addiction (sorry for the asterisks  - trying to avoid being moderated) Does he talk about it with others on that platform? (I don't use social media myself, so I'm a little naive about these things)

    If I was you I'd be a bit cautious - just in case he is using this to try to manipulate you into having a physical relationship with him. Of course, I don't know him so only you can judge this.

    If he really does have an addiction, I think that only a trained therapist can help with that.

    Signal is another chatting app, like WhatsApp.

    I believe he explained to me the reasons why he didn't check the chats. Also, I believe he wants to focus on what he is currently doing, such as studying and looking for a job, and sex addiction is affecting his life. 

  • I'm not sure wat a signal account is.

    Maybe he told you because you're a good person to share things with, maybe you just listen? However when you become someones confident it does leave you wondering what to do with all this information? I don't know what it means, maybe it means nothing more than what he said, but what does it mean to you, to be told all this stuff? You sound a bit confused?
