My bf and I broke up a few weeks ago, it's been about a month an I'm starting to get antsy.... I'm sorry but I just don't know how you can go so long without. I just can't. I have tried and failed. I wasn't ready before, I was too upset, but now that I'm starting to feel better, I'm approaching that time where I know I will want to soon. All attempts at resisting are going to prove futile eventually. I will swear I'm not going to but at some point I will have a weak moment...

No need to resist, onegreatnurse. And, please...desiring sex is not being "weak." It is, in fact, perfectly typical of a healthy, mature human being. Don't lose sight of that, and don't let all the talk of celibacy in this thread make you lose sight of the fact that being celibate is not the usual condition of healthy, non-geriatric adults.
So find yourself a good, supportive lover and scratch that itch!
Some of the smartest people in the history of Earth practiced celibacy.
I will be celibate until I'm in my next relationship. Casual sex is lame.
I don't think sex takes away my creativity or anything like that. I'm just going to be celibate so I pick a person that is good for me this time. Genitals suck at picking GFs.

I was celibate and I think it was divine punishment. A nurse I worked with told me she'd been celibate for 11 years. I thought to myself, OMG! You're crazy! I could never do that! Next thing I know, I'm celibate. Didn't want to be in a relationship as I'd just divorced and didn't want random partners so I put it away only to have it take on a life of it's own. Ten years later, it was over. I'd do it all over again just to break it with whom and the way I did. Well worth it. Hope that wasn't TMI.
yeah been celibate about a year now. I took a vow of celibacy. I hope to ordain soon as a Buddhist monk (before I'm 40 and I'm 37 now!) I'm just giving celibacy a go for when I ordain, see if I can hack it. The world is so sexualized. You see on Tv, the internet, posters. There seems a pressure to have a partner or engage in sex, Personally I think sex is over rated! it's alot more fun being celibate
I have been celibate for 9 months for each of my 3 pregnancies. Some men will tell you that marriage is pretty much a vow of celibacy just kidding.
ouch why?
