Bad Internet habits?

Question

How s does one control bad internet habits like causual conversations with women when you are in a commited relationship? I understand just talking is not a problem but every now and then things will get flirtatious and go over board. How does one get around this temptation? If they can't get around it do they live with it or go get help? I am not talkin about porn. Is this hurting anyone elses relationship?

I can stop for long periods of time but thats more so when I stop talking to women online period. Then I start then flirting happens then I feel bad then I stop or get caught and chewed out. But I always start again after time. I love this girl but every time I have moments or bordom there I go again.

Answer 1

Technically this is an emotional affair for him, I like our advicors but they do show their experience. Buddy you force this on you as a way to indenfy yourself, you LIKE this weakness in you, you LIKE giving into it. Your not powerless, you just enjoy pretending to be powerless because it gives you a good feeling in yourself. The problem IS, your just plain not ready for a relaitonship. Thats it to a tee, you don't see woman as anything more then sexual objects, so really just don't marry anyone and try not to make to many false promises. Simply put your just not mature enough to hanlde ladies as anything else, enjoy..... evenutally, hopfully, you'll grow out of limited yourself like this, but that depends on you. So its all you, enjoy your own personal heck, no skin off my nose....

Answer 2

You get over it the same way you get over any bad habit.

You realize that is is a problem, you have done so by posting this question on here.

You stop yourself from having conversations with other women on the Internet, you obviously know that it is not just casual if you are concerned about it.

You are damaging your relationship because there is always that little possibility of something happening beyond the casual stage.

Can you honestly admit this to your girlfriend or wife? If you cannot, it is wrong and you just need to stop. Have the conversations with your wife and other friends in person.

This type of thing can lead to emotional affairs, which can be just as damaging as a sexual affair in many cases.

Good luck and have Merry Christmas.
