We would try to establish boundaries around our behavior,
but eventually we’d violate these boundaries.
Some of us decided that we would engage in certain behaviors, but that
we wouldn’t bet involved in other things that were dangerous, caused harm to others,
or were illegal. We would act out in
so-called “safe” ways, and only fantasize about acting out in forbidden
ways.
Then one day, we crossed those
boundaries. We paid for sex when we
thought we never would. We took risks
meeting strangers for sex. Or we
violated the sexual boundaries of others.
We may have promised ourselves that we would not do these things a
second time, and yet we did. Before
long, we did them repeatedly, hoping we could stop, while praying that we
wouldn’t get caught.
