i’ve been sexually active for several years before i found my faith. now, i am in a committed relationship where we are very active sexually. we both have high libidos and that is due to sexual trauma and probably some insecurity on both sides. i feel in order to be good i need to be less sexually active. it is the easiest sin for me to commit and i do so almost daily, which makes me feel like trash even though i am so dependent on it to feel loved by my partner.

frankly, it’s a conversation i’m scared to have, and a commitment i’m not sure i can follow through on…

i just feel like i need to do it in order to be a good christian. not even necessarily for my relationship with God, i believe He understands the reasons i am too weak to commit to this, but just for approval by other christians…i have toned it down, and i am doing my best.

any advice appreciated. i am very new to my faith and have felt a lot of pressure.
