Please share opinions about continuing to have a solely sexual relationship (safe sex) with the ex.

I am trying really hard to avoid that even though we are very sexually compatible and so far, so good. I would not be able to separate sex from the emotional connection and then i would be right back where i was. I don't think this is a good idea, at least for me.

U are going to get hurt, I thought it would work with my STBX and it actually was alsome the first couple of times because we could be truely honest about what we expected. As she started looking for other partners. It changed for both, didn't feel right anymore. This is what I have experienced, not sure it right but I won't do it anymore.

I don't have to worry about that. It's a long way from CO to TX and she can have her OM now. I know where she had been for the last 20+ years, but have no idea where he had been. Overall I don't think it is a good idea. How do you turn off the emotions that you had for them. Would be to difficult for me.

I know that you are all right that I should avoid this but I guess this lonely weekend has got me thinking about this one good part of the relationship.

SEX WITH MY EX? NO WAY JOSE!
I'd rather be celivate for the rest of my days! Abstinence sucks, but I'd rather have sex with a perfect stranger than with this man.

I too am trying to avoid that can't seperate sex from my emotions. It would be like one step forward, two steps behind.

Way to many pitfalls and strings for most most peoples situations I would think. I can't see playing "buds with bennies" with an ex. All the attached emotional baggage just waiting to spill all over the floor after the last Oooooooooooo.......fades. Just a thought. CD

Couldn't do it. Way too much emotion in there. If I had an emotions switch to turn off I still don't think I could do it.

She wants to... I don't have interest in her anymore. Want Sex, just not with her!

It's like a fast-food dinner - filling, but not satisfying - complete with regrets in the morning...

I could never have sex with the x without any emotions involved. I loved him too long and there is too much history.

I think of my stbx as a comparison to America (me) and the United Kingdom (her).
The British may have a wonderful history filled with all sorts of notable events but the Americans are the ones with the future!

I did the deed once after we separted and feel that it was a bad choice. That will never happen again. I get emotional and she asks how much my lawyer is charging

    I'm trying to exercise daily. I was doing fairly well until I sprained my ankle 2 weeks ago but now I'm getting back on the horse. Today I walked over a mile with my arm weights that are about 22lbs total. I was out of shape and it was hard on my arms. I also did my 30 situps. I'm also going to drink a lot of water and try to eat healthy. I do tend to have a sweet tooth but I'm cutting...
