my feeling is that they leave you feeling empty and used... but that is me. I never got any real pleasure from casual sex or hook ups.... I am a long termer myself.

I am not into that either. Honestly the thought of catching some kind of disease scares me to death. I am guessing most people who prey on that sort of sex really dont care if the get it one or not and where does this leave you? I at least like to know them a bit, habits and such before sex. I know thats no gurentee but it's a far better chance than nothing at all. My opinion anyway.

hehehe..i was always cruel when it came to the "one night stands".....friends firsts.....pillow talk later....as luck would have it...i have avoided many pillow fights ;)

I left my husband feeling empty and used-a one night stand might be refreshing-work too much and am far too sad for that.

no way!

No, one night stands can never be a good thing. When your getting a divorce you are so vulnerable. Talking to people is good. Chatting online can be fun.

NO WAY! I have way too much self respect for that. And after being treated like shit by my H for so long there is no way I would subject myself to feeling like crap all over again. I have a child to take care of and in order for me to do that I have to take care of me- physically and emotionally. BOB is just fine with me :)

No

No, one night stands can be dangerous and leave you feeling very lonely and unhappy. Have only had one in my life when I was young and it was not worth it.

At this point I don't know. I would have told you an ABSOLUTE no for my entire lifetime, as much pain as I'm in now . . . I might do something stupid just to hurt over something other than the man I love.

No. I would NOT have a one night stand.

I can't see the benefit of a one night stand. Too many bad things can happen...not to mention the possibility of catching something that stays with you forever or can kill you. No I will stick with my friend BOB (battery operated boyfriend):\

OK. very weird that i wrote this and then the opportunity came up last nite...
I was so drunk,, so was he, or he wouldnt have wanted me.. ok,, not toootally true..
but i was kinda surprised to hear that apparently i may now have and STD (used full protection) and i have no respect for myself..
not sure it the ppl that just said no were saying No, it's not bad.... but I completely took the opportunity.. he's the hottest thing I'm gonna get, have , whatever, prob. for a while.. unless he calls and wants more.....
i don't feel empty, we had great chemistry, live within a five miles of each other, but yes.. i see everyone's point.. and i hadnt read the responses til just now... i wasnt expecting it at all.. I'd say if u had details, u would see why i don't regret it... hmmmm? i guess i'll take ur opinions and think about it more next time... that and not let my friend buy me so many drinks! my inhibitions are very lowered at that point, and my horrible self esteem plays a huge part.....

I personally couldn't do it..but thats just me!
