Broke up with boyfriend - going out in search of meaningless sex?

    I'm not sure why I'm posting this - I think I just want to give myself time to think before I go out and do something rash.

    Last night I ended my first serious relationship. We went out for a year and a half and it was incredibly intense - but of us vacillating between being passionately in love with each other and absolutely hating each other.

    Basically, it was wonderful, but draining and while I'm sad that things are over, it's for the best.

    So, my plan for the night had been to sit in and indulge in some crappy food. Now though I'm tempted to doll myself up and just have meaningless sex with some random man. I've never done the one-night stand thing before - the only person I've had sex with was with the aforementioned ex-boyfriend.

    None of my friends are around to go out with me - everyone has gone home from college for the weekend. So, I'm considering getting dressed up and just going to some pub alone and basically just picking someone up. It seems incredibly pathetic and I know I'll probably feel cheap in the morning - but getting drunk and happy seems more appealing right now than wallowing in my sorrows.

    After Hours possibly isn't the best place for this....but what do people think about rebound sex in general? Good idea or just a recipe for disaster?

    Stay home, open a bottle of wine, stick a rom com on, have a good cry and hit the sack. Your plan won't work and you will regret it.

    Wrong thread for this op. personnel issues would probably be better but I'd advise against it in case you get a unexpected surprise in a month. You're in a vulnerable position at the moment and the worst of men will feed of this. Get yourself a nice tub of Ben and jerrys and sit down in front of the telly. Then next week when you're friends are back meet up with them and head out. At least they'll look out for you.

    I agree. Don't do this to yourself OP. It'll more than likely cause more hurt and pain than there already is.

    My slurry tank has a leak in her. I know how you feel. Empty and looking for fulfillment. Sad state of events. Chin up girl. Chin up.

    Thanks to those who responded seriously, but even greater thanks to all those with the crude responses - reminded me that there are a lot of less than desirable people around and that's most likely who I'd end up going home with tonight. Opened the wine and am staying in for the night - thanks After Hours!

    Probably bad idea.

    You will just spend the experience thinking this guy isn't my boyfriend, the intimacy and familiarity won't be there and it will just be weird. One night stands don't work when you are trying to forget some cause they just remind you that this person isn't who you want them to be.

    Plus if you drink until you forget you are probably in the do-something-stupid zone. Waking up with an STI from someone you met in a bar is not a good cherry on top of a breakup.

    Spend your time doing something that isn't relationship or sex based, even if that is just watching the new Die Hard movie until the kick you out of the cinema.

    Have a look at the "Taxi driver" thread.:eek: You could call 8 20 20 20 and offer to ride the driver, If you really wanted to. Personally, I'd be going with the "wine and find a new Boyfriend" option. There's loads of them out there, go gettem :D Tomorrow.:)

    Wait. Be patient. The storm will pass.

    Yes. You are so much more better than those who lightheartedly offered you the ride. Damn those heterosexuals.
