Is sex like an addiction?

Do some people really NEED sex? Like they can't function without it?

I would like to have a sex-less relationship, but I've noticed that when we go without for a while, my boyfriend gets more determined to have sex. He starts making dirty comments/jokes, grabbing me, touching me more, etc. He's not the nice man I know, he gets scary. Sometimes I really have to fight him off.

I don't understand it because I can go forever without. Do some people just NEED to have sex?

I want to make sure that you realise that whether or not sex addiction is real, your partner never has any right to your body. Even if he is addicted, you are under no obligation to have sex with him when you don't feel like it. You always have the right to say "no", even to your partner. And if that doesn't feel like a viable option, uou have the right to leave the relationship.
