Having a high sex drive… it’s not always easy

Have you ever felt your desire was too much?

I’m in my early thirties, and for as long as I can remember, I’ve had an intense sexual desire. Even as a child, I explored my body naturally, without any external influence. I wasn’t molested, didn’t see early porn, I simply discovered that touch gave me pleasure and I continued to explore.

Over the years, this desire hasn’t diminished. On the contrary, it’s become a significant part of my adult life, influencing my relationships and how I see myself.

Currently, I’m single. My last relationship ended a few months ago, and although I’ve tried to satisfy myself with casual encounters, I feel something’s missing. Casual sex doesn’t fully satisfy me, leaving me with a void that goes beyond the physical.

I’m on vacation at a resort in Barcelona, surrounded by people, yet I feel strangely alone. I observe the couples, the groups of friends, and I can’t help but think about what I’m missing. My body craves contact, but my soul seeks something deeper, a connection that casual sex simply doesn’t provide.
