I need help finding an article. I thought it was written by Dr Harley on this site. The article dealt with protecting your weakness. It was about limiting the amount and the type of contact with members of the opposite sex whether a coworker, friend, etc. Has anyone else read this article?

Whenever I counsel someone who seems incurably attracted to the opposite sex, I give them the following rules to avoid temptation: 1) Spend all your recreational time either alone or with your spouse, 2) no meals alone with someone of the opposite sex, 3) no rides in cars alone with those of the opposite sex, 4) never tell someone of the opposite sex that you find them attractive or that you like them and 5) if someone of the opposite sex ever tells you that they find you attractive, start talking about how much you love your spouse.
