First of all, I am not asking how to go out and get laid. I like and want sex - I am not a douchey, sleep-with-anything-that-moves horndog.

 

I guess this is a supplement to my other post. I am by no means a "player"...my ex was the only person I had ever been with, until a couple of months ago when I slept with a friend a couple of times.

 

I have a pretty high sex drive, and my ex did too, when we were together. We had sex about every day we were together, and while it wasn't absolutely thrilling every single time, it was very comfortable and I felt very loved/connected to her when we did it. I thought we just "matched" very well in the bedroom. I loved her body and her sexual persona. We were very open with each other, there wasn't much that was off limits.

 

Now, except for the time I mentioned and fooling around two or three times with a couple of others, I've been sexless for the past five months. I'm not the best at picking up girls in bars...but that isn't exactly what I want either. I really miss sex and I also miss the connection of doing it with a loving partner.

 

I'm going a bit nuts without it, and I'm sure almost everyone who has been dumped has been through this phase. Although it wouldn't be my ex, who I really felt a connection with, I'd be happier with it than without it - especially as I know she already has someone else. How have you dealt with periods in your life when you had to go without sex for a long time?

I take matters into my own hands. It's much safer and zero drama. Unless I get a hand cramp of course.
