Alexander
Introduction
Hi everyone, my name is Alex and my company, Kinal Corp, is the creator of BeatingAddiction.com. As you can see, I'm the first member too!
After we originally released this website in late 2005 and saw what potential it had, we decided to completely rebuild it becaue of how unfriendly the interfaces were and because of how confident we were that it could be a useful tool for interested members if done right.
Finishing it entirely has been a tough process because of many exteral forces and factors however as time goes on, so does the completion of BeatingAddiction.com.
I really hope you have as much fun using the site as I've had putting it together. I wish you all the best of luck on your journey to recovery and hope you enjoy all of the current, and many to come, features of the website.
Enjoy!

November 18, 2009 @ 1:34 AMThanks a lot Alex,
Happy to be working together. The blog is doing pretty well - about 8000 hits a month, which I can't complain about. My first month had less than 100...
I like what you're doing here. I'm sure we can help each other make a mark on this industry.

October 7, 2009 @ 2:57 PMFirst of all, thank you for asking. You totally rock.
It's going well; I'm still off of it for good. Sometimes I get tempted to go on again- people keep asking me why I'm not on it. But so far, so good! It sucks that I'm part of a club that ONLY communicates through Facebook... oh well.
Tx again.

September 14, 2009 @ 6:26 PMI would love to set one pic as a default one but I don't know how to set it. Otherwise I would. Also, I know the whole after digging self into a hole, the only way left is up. That is so true, yet sometimes the hole can fall a little deeper yet. Thank you for being so supportive and willing to be there to help me through them. I have cut back on my times going out with friends and drinking, but as for the sex and masturbation addictions, those are the ones that I can't seem to get past. I so lack the willpower, especially when the instant outcome is just "soo good" as I'm sure you know what I mean (you being a guy in all, haha).. But yeah, I have a huge fascination with Marilyn Monroe. She was such an icon and truely I feel she and I are quite similar. She's like this little teenage girl trapped in a beautiful woman's body who ends up using her assets to get what she wants even though what she really gets in the end turns out to be not exactly what she wants. She longs for the feeling to be truely loved and adored and taken care of, and gets hurt and misleaded and unethical along the way. haha.. Anyways, I love Marilyn Monroe, I've been her for Halloween the past couple years :) Talk to you soon Alexander :)
