Caught up with sex addicted friends

Dear Aphrodite,

I am a 24-year-old guy and I have some sex addicted friends who I have sex with.

I also have a girlfriend and we have two children.

She does not know about my sexual relationships with my friends, but as the days go by she is getting to become friends with them.

I love my girlfriend. All of my sex addict friends know I love my girl, plus I love my kids; everything in my home is okay. What must I do?

Worried

Dear Worried, It seems pretty obvious to me what you must do, so I cannot believe that you do not know.

It’s simple really; on one side, you have a girlfriend and two children who you love and who I assume you do not want to lose. I am also assuming that if your girlfriend knew the truth about your ‘friends’ you would lose her and your children.

On the other side, there is your group of sex addicted friends. Clearly these are people who mean nothing to you; they are junkies and you are their fix.

You have to pick a side, right? Which side are you going to lose and which side are you going to keep? The closer your girlfriend gets to your friends the more likely the chance that she will find out, right? She should find out, but she needs to hear it from you and then decide whether she will forgive you or not.

I don’t think I need to say more except that you are involved in risky business and I hope you have kept yourself and your family safe.
