37, obsessed with sex/sexual thoughts?
Is this normal? Am I in a pre-menopause thing? I size up every guy I see. The ones I think are hot, I can't stop fantasizing about. I flirt horribly. I'm married, but keep thinking about having flings (sex with husband is still fine, it's not like he's ignoring me, but I want other men too).
I've been feeling like this for about 8 months. It detracts from my work, from my other feelings, etc. I feel like some sort of addict. Anyone else ever go through this?
For my age, I look about 10 years younger and I am attractive. Men give me attention, and I go stupid over it.
I used to actually think about other things, care about other things. Now I feel like I'm obsessed, in a mid-life crisis or something. I'm so mental I give thought to quitting my job, taking my savings, and just travelling to pick up hot men. This is crazy, no??? Anyone go through this, and does it end?

Thinking things is one thing. Acting on them is another.
A lot of women in their 30s and 40s go through this. I started a little early at about 30.
DO NOT give up on your husband and family. This would be hugely foolish I promise you.
Channel that energy into even hotter sex with your husband. Rowr. It can be an awful lot of fun if you put all that energy in the right places.

It's pretty normal for some women (the energy, not the extreme thoughts about traveling....). You really need to find a way to focus some of that energy on something else besides sex. Now you understand where a man in his 20's comes from....
Welcome to your prime/midlife crisis for women! I promise you that it can be a wonderful thing IF you take the energy and put it towards your life's passion or some other endeavor. Start a journal. Take a look at your life and ask if you are really living as you want to (sex aside) find a creative outlet. Help others! Don't screw up your marriage by giving in to false desires. This energy burst will eventually even out and you want to be able to recognize your life when it does. Finding yourself homeless in a hotel room with some strange man would not be the best place for a new awakening now would it....
Take extra time with your husband, do something new together, travel, enjoy each other. There are so many healthy ways to deal with what you're going through. Look around at what you have and be thankful that you have this amazing new energy to go at life with! Good luck :)
