“When desire activates, it changes the way we feel. What we want changes – we experience urges we never dreamed we would have. We can't realize how we will feel when our passions activate and our perspective evaporates. Thus, we must be cautious not to spark our desires or to make it easy to succumb if our lusts come aflame.”
Also discussed here is the danger of not having a plan or doing anything beyond staying away (ex. I installed a filter, or got rid of the internet or my smartphone, so I don't need to do anything else.)
In the place where ba’alei teshuva stand, even pure tzaddikim who never sinned cannot stand. (Rabbi Avohu, Brachos 34b)
