When we liberate ourselves from the expectation that we must have all things figured out, we enter a sanctuary of empathy.

The passionate feeling of deep attraction and intense emotion - love is an innate human desire. It's normal for one to seek meaningful connection, the embrace of a partner, and the fleeting emotion of care and affection. Yet, in satisfying our needs as humans, one can become consumed and absorbed with the idea of love.

Love addiction is defined by patterns of compulsive behaviors related to romance, sexuality, and relationships, which may look like a fixation or compulsion in a love interest. These behaviors can unravel the very fabric of one's life, leading to the dissolution of marriage, derailment of one's career, neglecting personal needs, tolerating emotional and-or physical abusive behaviors by a partner, or insecurity in being alone. As a result, people experiencing love addiction can find themselves in unstable relationships. It can be challenging to identify the dangers of these relationships, and even reason with the idea of being alone.

Sex addiction is not defined by the type of sexual act or the gender of your sexual partner; it is a pattern of unwanted, compulsive sexual fantasies and behaviors that can impact many facets of your life.

Out-of-control sexually addictive behavior may escalate to the point where fantasizing, pursuing, and engaging in these behaviors cause detrimental consequences.
