What it's like to be married to a sex addict?

My boyfriend is 25 years old and he is a sex addict. He was an addict even before meeting me. I thought he had a higher sex drive and I tried my maximum to satisfy his desires. But, he is becoming worse each day and I cannot tolerate him any longer. I love him a lot, but I cannot cope up with his fantasies.
He proposed me the other day and I said "Yes". I love him a lot and cannot even think of losing him. His addictive behavior needs treatment. He has no one to support him as his parents and siblings are staying away from him. I know that I am the only one for him and I cannot leave him in this stage of life.
This thought is making me restless and I am always in depression. I became very lean and has lost a considerable amount of weight within this short duration of time. My friends and relatives are asking what had happened to me and I cannot open my mind to them.
I had a friend who got married to a sex addict and she had to suffer a lot after the marriage. She had to undergo a codependent therapy from Vancouver in order to come out of the trauma that has been caused. She told me that the mind of men changes after the marriage and they will begin to exhibit their true nature after marriage. I am scared. Should I ask him to get a treatment for sex addiction?

IMHO, Yes! from the Aneros WIKI

Sexual practices within the cultural, religious and legal contexts of our world are extremely diverse, confusing, ambiguous and occasionally irrational. Such conditions lead to widespread psychological issues surrounding sex practices and the ability to enjoy sexual relationships. This WIKI is not the place for persons suffering from sex related issues to have them resolved. Professional counseling by qualified therapists is recommended, one source for finding help is through AASECT.

The American Association of Sexuality Educators, Counselors and Therapists is a not-for-profit, interdisciplinary professional organization. In addition to sexuality educators, sexuality counselors and sex therapists, AASECT members include physicians, nurses, social workers, psychologists, allied health professionals, clergy members, lawyers, sociologists, marriage and family counselors and therapists, family planning specialists and researchers, as well as students in relevant professional disciplines. These individuals share an interest in promoting understanding of human sexuality and healthy sexual behavior. You can write to them at P.O. Box 1960, Ashland, Virginia – 23005-1960 or visit their web site at www.AASECT.org for further information.

Another web resource is The Sexual Health Network, dedicated to providing easy access to sexuality information, education, support, and other resources.

Good Vibes to You !
