Yes, there is such a thing as sex addiction as well as love addiction. It is not just merely insanely stalking a person you especially like. It is an illness, probably a mental illness that entails compulsivity when it comes to sexual activities and having multiple partners, and being fond of casual sex and self gratification. Sex and love addiction is a progressive illness which cannot be cured but which, like many illnesses, can be arrested. It may take several forms—which includes, but not limited to a compulsive need for sex, intensive dependency on one or many people, or a chronic obsession with romance, intrigue, or fantasy, an obsessive compulsive pattern, either sexual or emotional, or both, exists in which relationships or sexual activities have become increasingly destructive to career, family and sense of self-respect.
