Should you go there after the relationship has ended? Here’s what you need to consider before taking the plunge.
Remember the Seinfeld episode “The Deal”,” in which ex-lovers Jerry and Elaine concoct a set of rules that will ostensibly allow them to rut like a trip down memorable sex lane is just what doctor ordered, but is hooking up with an ex strictly for carnal kicks a good idea, or is it easier then Kramer’s fear of clowns?
Sure, your old sexual relationship was satisfying explosive, but now that territory is littered with emotional landmines. If you’re thinking about going there, travel smart, my horny friend. Know exactly what you’re getting into a take the appropriate measures to protect yourself.
“It can be good idea to reconnect just for se, but only both persons involved agree to the same thing. The rules of the ‘sex only’ relationship need to be explicitly defined and spelled out as distinctly as possible, so that there is no confusion,” says sex therapists Just don’t forget that Elaine got pissed off when Jerry effused to sleep over following some bed boogie, even through one of their rules made sleepovers optional. With that in mind, let’s examine the good, the bad and the painfully ugly ins and outs of reunion sex.
The Good
Think back to the sex life you had with your ex. If you’re debating whether to get on with her again, evaluate as objectively as possible how your sexual relationship went down. Were the two of you able to openly and honestly about sex? Was she into trying new positions and scenarios? Were your parallel-parking sessions playful and mutually gratifying? Were you both uninhibited yet careful not to hurt one another.
The Answer you come up with should help determine your decision. In the two of you made sex playful, joyful and rewarding, and a pleasurable activity unto itself, that’s a good sign that you could separate sex from emotion and enjoy it on a purely physical level.
“Ex-lovers often fall back together out of familiarity of loneliness. They hook up without much problem concerning sex, but if one is holding out hope for the relationship, it is to prolong the inevitable.”
