welcome back Big Fresh Moish! at least you aren't giving up, it's good that you picked ur head up and kept on fighting. I personally can't relate exactly to your SIL problem, i never have had a crush on a family member. However maybe you can give it up to god? this is something i learnt in sa, and i am not selling sa at all, however i think it can be helpful. If god can create the world he can remove a lustful thought. I have found that if I truly ask hashem to help me with the thoughts then he delivers.
If you're an LGBTQ or LGBTQ-questioning person and looking for someone who can understand you, feel free to reach out. I promise no judgement and to try and listen the best I can.

Hi Bigmoish,

I haven't been on this Forum for ages. I am, by the grace of G-d, SA sober for 1,609 days (4 yrs. 4 mos.) When I went to SA 4 years ago I believed I was a sexaholic but I cannot honestly say that now. I can literally cry about the wreck I was back then when my mind was a 24 hr. soft porn movie theater and I needed to go to the mikva a few times a week.

Of course, there are always nisyonos and I still have bigger nisyonos than most men in these inyonim. I travel on buses every day with women on the bus and women in the street and at work there is a new girl who is not very attractive but reveals flesh. I'm going to try the 90 day wall thing again to keep GYE clean instead of only SA sober.

A SIL crush is a difficult situation. Mine are all thousands of miles from Meron. It's good that your wife told you about her sister's problems because people have problems and objects offer pure pleasure.

Keep smiling and keep going.
The Blind Beggar is a character in Rebbe Nachman's story of the Seven Beggars.
If I view a woman as an object, I am powerless over lust, but I don't have to look.
I can guard my eyes.
I want to guard my eyes.
I do guard my eyes.
Why do I say these four lines?

Thanks for gracing my thread with your presence.
The old timers are a bit legendary by now.
Good to see you made it back here from the secret forum where everyone else went.
