I'm happily monogamous for the first time in my life. (even though I've been married twice).

I liked what Sharon had to say:

"just as they have told us countless times
that getting sober screws up our drinking careers, well
so does our sex lives....

What we use to do so freely...we now have a conscience
to ever remind us of guilt and shame."

It used to be a very difficult thing for me not to play around with whomever I felt like it. I liked to think that I was a free-thinker, when in fact, I had no self esteem. The more I like myself, the easier it is to accept the blessing of being in a monogamous relationship. Working the steps has done that for me.
