I cant give you my number, but you can definitely PM or email whenever you need.

And Uri will be calling as soon as he can...


I'm sorry I had to limit it to men, but I think you understand some of us men need limits.
Thanks for the PM offer.
Re Uri, I can't speak to anyone right now. If I start talking, it will all flow out again. I have to get it together and make it through my work day.

7Up, thanks for SOS-ing Uri.

I just called him. I'm feeling a bit better than before.

First, pray to HaShem. I did that, and it didn't really help.

Guard you are brilliant.
I didnt even think about that.
Momo,is it a coincedence that I got released from work today so early?
Is it coincedence that Yackov Shwartz was on for the first time in a while just in time to see your SOS?
HUG!
Hashem loves you very much,my man!

Now I think I get it.

Guard, I had no idea what you were doing. I thought it was an incomplete post and I was waiting for you to finish writing. Then Uri came and helped explain.

I think you mean that HaShem answered my prayer by sending me Yaakov and Uri. That is deep. I thought HaShem wasn't helping me since I didn't feel better after my short prayer, but He was planning something even bigger for me.

Right. He sent a  helicopter to the drowning man instead of a wooden log.

Hashem! Look at your Holy Kinderlach!

If this isn't convincing enough that we are all yours then I don't know what is!

Satan, This message is for you! Your End Is Near! Just Give Up! like you Menuval tell us all the time. Why don't you Practice what you preach! & Just Give Up!

Or maybe like Reb Guard said the other day "Hashem is just Enjoying this Avodah of ours, even thou he hides from us"

But then come the Hugs over at Uri's Place (Feeling the Hug's) & only a Blind Man will fail to see Hashem appearing right in our faces.

  True intimacy I have found takes work, and is at times a little scary. Rarely as intense as what one might imagine. But its stable wamr amd predictable.

Sorry that I go back to a previous subject, but I believe it is very relevant.

R' Chaim Wosner writes in his sefer Reai Chaim about this problem, although he does not elaborate too much. His point is basically "stop staring at the girl in the bank and you will see how your interest in your wife will come back".

One of the main problems which we face is the build up of hormones which drive us crazy sometimes, and once married you have a legal outlet, but you should keep your attention focused on THIS subject.

The Garden of Peace, which I recommend in any event (I'm almost done reading it for the second time), specifically discusses just how destructive wandering eyes (even short of pornography) is for the marital relationship (intimate and otherwise).
Just as an alcoholic needs to avoid that first sip, a lust addict needs to avoid that first slip.Slip today? No way! ;)Fall today? No way, Jose'!

Just wanted to share with you that the day that I stop running away from lust because it is very, very dangerous for me and go back to trying to avoid it primarily because it is ossur, is the day I'd probably c"v pick it right up again. And that would likely be the end of my reality as my family and I know it.
I am sure my Eternal Best Friend wants me to stay alive and sane. He really, really likes me, you know. Hope I'm being clear.
Thanks,
