As I've said before, the number one cure for sexual addiction is marriage, a divinely inspired cure from St. Paul.
I Thought Marriage Would Cure My Addiction {He Said} This article is telling that her wife had pain in the first year of marriage that "The lack of sex in our marriage left me vulnerable to find fulfillment elsewhere: pornography." It was the lack of satisfying sexual union that made the marriage ineffective. And it happened in the first year of marriage which is crucial.
No, Marriage is Not the Cure for Lust This article tells to practice resisting lust before marriage which is somewhat similar to my stand. But I have the same counter argument to reinterpret St. Paul's stand as correct, not because it is a Word of God, in the Bible, or anything we can believe blindly, but because it is true. The author has the double problem of sexual addiction and drug addiction. Drug addiction is worse than self-injected delusion that I was talking about. Marriage is not the answer though to drug addiction. But the twin headed addiction must first be beheaded to one only before marriage can be of help.
Then again my reminder that marriage will not cure you if you will not practice our recommendations here. Why is marriage the somewhat unconfirmed solution of atheist to their sexual addiction? Well, is there something else in common with the theist? Perhaps they don't care to report it.
Then here I am. Still being sustained by God in single blessedness, if not for this work He seems to be wanting me to still continue as an unmarried person. I am telling you to marry to cure your sexual addiction. How? Outside marriage you will find managing sexual addiction very difficult if not impossible without God's mercy and compassion. Period. You want to tread the road less traveled like I did? I tell you don't. But if you're not really addicted to sex, and you're gifted by God with the capacity for celibate loving, then go. Then why am I not living my own counsel to already marry. I tell you I have stormed heaven with my prayers for so long and so intense why God isn't still giving me a wife that the only reason God hints me with is that this chastity work I am doing is according to His will or so I think only. But this is my vocation: to tell you that managing sexual addiction outside marriage is very difficult. It is not your calling. God made me to tell you to already prepare for marriage as you do our chastity works here because there is nothing but marriage which is the number one cure for sexual addiction. Other natural techniques pales in comparison.
The two authors above are correct though that it is God who will cure us really, be it before, during, or after marriage.
So what is the point of my ranting? It is that our first interpretation of St. Paul is correct. And no you don't experiment like I did in searching for answers to sexual addiction outside marriage. What you may get is that you will loose your time and youth without finances for marriage, you don't know how to cook for your wife and children, that is why I am saying again PREPARE FOR MARRIAGE, and then marry. Hear me or suffer the consequences, choose then your path. I have delivered my message clearly.
