I was always told as a child that living a life of virtue would make me happy. So I played by all the rules. I hardly ever had any relationships since modern women are generally hoes. I married a plain but faithful and loving wife. I did everything I was supposed to do.

So why aren't I happy? I am perpetually tempted by prettier women. It feels like I threw my life away in the hopes that sky fairies will one day take me to candyland.

I want to be a good man, but how can something be good if it makes you unhappy? Maybe unconditional self-sacrifice isn't good at all?

How can I be free of the source of temptation, short of literally blinding myself?

You can start by not leading your fellow brothers in Christ into temptation by posting tempting images.

Pray the rosary daily.

yeah what the fuck, start by deleting all your images remotely tempting, then spit in Satan's face and renounce your sin and consecrate yourself to our lady's immaculate heart and our blessed Lord's Sacred heart.

For starters, count your blessings. Do you have any idea how rare a woman like that is these days?

These are haughty girls whose only value they offer is sex appeal. If you gave into your temptation, it will bite you in the ass so hard you'll wish you were dead. Think holes in your condom, divorce, bitter regrets, etc. Your wife, in contrast, sounds like she is sweet, loves you, and fully intends to honor her wedding vow to you. A woman willing to die for her husband is a prize above all earthly prizes.

But more to the point, I get a very strong impression that you don't have or don't understand a relationship with the Lord. It's not about rotely going through the motions being a good person just to be a good person. You say you act virtuous in hopes that it makes you happy. Happiness doesn't come from virtue, it comes from knowing the Lord in a personal way. We were made to worship and fellowship with God. I suggest you sit down and sincerely pray to God like He's right there in the room with you, listening. Read the Bible, so that His Wisdom fills your mind and heart. Believe that Jesus came in the flesh to save you from your sins, believe in your heart and verbally confess that Jesus is Lord.

You would be more sad if you gave yourself up to sin, you just don't realise it yet because that is how sin works, it gives false promises. We are not supposed to be "happy" in this life, that comes in the next if we resist till the end.

Who said that it would be immediate? Humans are immortal beings, first 100 years are nothing compared to it and what is expected after that.

This. A million times over. Good looks are fleeting and a depreciating asset. What you have is worth more than all the thots in the world.

I used to think as you do. These two books convinced me that the Christian life is the happiest life.
