Some relationship or sexual recovery plans have very strictly defined boundaries -- "No sexual activity of any kind outside of a committed marital relationship" could be one such defined boundary, "no sex without at least 30 days of dating", another. Sobriety can be delineated as abstinence from any romantic or sexual activity that causes the person to feel shameful, hold secrets or which is illegal or abusive to others. Personal definitions may change over time as the recovering person evolves in their understanding of the disease. An example of such a plan might be, "I am sober as long as I do not date anyone who is married or in another relationship, whom I would not introduce to friends, who is abusive, unresponsive or uncommunicative to me," or " I am sober as long as I do not engage in flirtation, intrigue or sexual seduction with strangers, have sexual or romantic liaisons with strangers or with anyone I have not known for at least 90 days." These types of definitions are always discussed with at least one other recovering person, therapist or clergy, and are not changed without thorough discussion and understanding.

I used to be a sex addict, but then I got married, that is guaranteed to knock the sex drive for six.

Church. Nothing like a healthy heaping of religious guilt to make you never want to see sex again! LOL.

Exercise is helpful and it's good for you. Go for a walk, jog, bike ride, or lift weights. Give it a try.

Find a hobby! Something that would hold your attention and keep you excited about it. OTHER THAN A WOMAN!

Dating someone you TRULY like helps!
I used to date guys who were just ok, that didn't help.
Try finding someone you really really like.
