Men with addictions

Relationship challenges

Summary:  This is the abridged version of an email conversation that I had with a man (Arthur) that has a very disturbed personality and a lot of addictions.  He was also cheating and his lover (Tina) also communicated with me from time to time in order to help them both.  I gave them tips on how to have a normal life after addictions.
Arthur wrote to me, “I would say when I look back it all started around 15 years of age.  I found myself enjoying women with larger breasts because I felt is was sexier and more fulfilling.   I found myself only looking at woman in public who had the qualities I liked.  Now these women could be average in looks and sometimes below average, it didn't seem to matter.  I felt like I was in a circle of lust or desire that I couldn't get away from.

My first wife was a size A and my second wife is a C but to me that was not good enough and I felt that my desire for either was not as strong as for a woman of larger breasts; this has effected me in relations with both. First one ended in divorce although other issues were at hand.  I don't know why I really place such a need for size; it is a puzzle to me.”

Then his current extramarital lover Tina wrote to me as well.  “Arthur has told me that he has become angry realizing he was married and stuck with a woman that was not large breasted. He has said that with his first and second wives he wanted sex too much from them -- more than they cared for. He felt that if they didn’t want to have sex with him when he wanted to that they didn't love him.  Before he married his second wife, he had explained that inadequate sex had become a problem with the first marriage.  She assured him that she was interested in sex but later after becoming married told him that she had said that to him because she didn't want to lose him. He has since then had a couple of sexual encounters with large breasted women. He says he feels much more safe and secure but also says that the excitement goes away after a couple of times - that there is only so much you can do with them. Both of these women didn't seem to be actively participating in the experience. He rates these encounters very poorly and if he had the opportunity to go back in time, he may have avoided them.  He has commented that, if you have no feeling for the person, what is the point. However, he continues to be infatuated when he sees really breasty women and has said he will give up great legs, bottom, etc., etc., and will overlook a lot just for breasts and the women are usually overweight, out of shape and not pretty.

To complicate or possibly to clarify matters even more, he really appears to be attracted to just about anything under about 200 pounds that has legs with feet on one end even if they are small chested.  He seems to find something attractive about most women.  He seems to be girl crazy.  I think I may have an idea of what his problem is and what he needs. I am interested in what are your observations, suggestions, etc.

As Arthur is also interested in pleasing God and making his marriage work, he struggles with issues. He appears to have almost separate worlds that he lives in, each world fulfilling some separate need. He has become deceitful in order to cover up his actions, probably in part because he fears failing his marriage. He has apparently only been with a small number of women in a physical/ sexual sense, two of which he married. He has said that nothing can ever be good enough referring to the idea that he likes a variety in women and that no one woman has it all. He seems to be quite an insecure man in himself. He appears to have AADD and feels unintelligent much of the time, which bothers him. He is not a chivalrous man but since I have brought this to his attention, he is making efforts in this regard. He seeks acceptance from women and thought of himself as being flirtatious and has been making efforts to not look at women in this manner.”
