Sex drive is crazy

    I came out of a long term relationship recently, one where I had no sex drive, and now that I’m single my sex drive is through the roof. I’m guessing it’s a psychological reaction to the break up but it’s driving me crazy, sex is all I can think about.

    I definitely don’t want a relationship of any kind but I am considering hooking up with someone online , I’d NEVER do this ordinarily but I have never felt such sexual frustration. Has anyone done this before? how do I even find a FWB, and lastly, is it a really silly idea?

    The answers are completely different depending on your sex. It's very easy for women to get no strings sex of any kind, through various websites etc, or just being present in certain bars/clubs etc.
    For a man? I wish I knew.

    I was in your shoes 18 months ago. As a female its very easy to arrange hook ups online. Never thought I would go down that road but needs must. I had a 7 month FWB situation, it was amazing but feelings got involved for both of us, it got very intense and started to feel like a relationship so we both mutually called it a day. Since then I had a few random hook ups on nights out, and currently a new FWB. I regret none of them. Had an amazing time with them all. The guys involved were all lovely and left me with a smile on my face.
    My only words of caution would be these are strangers so try and get to know them a little first. I was prob lucky as in no wierdos, didn't treat me like dirt, and great chemistry each time. Also, feelings!!!! As a woman they do manage to wriggle their way in when we let ourselves become that intimate with someone, much and all as we might like to think otherwise lol. But if you can keep control of them at the end of the day no one will die.
    I would say go for it and enjoy it :-)

    I've had many such relationships as a guy.

    It's cliche but try Tinder.

    If you are a girl its very easy to arrange hook ups. Just say that you arent looking for anything serious.

    If you are a guy you should be honest and dont be sleezy. However you will need to be moderately good looking or have some sort of personality for you as there are a lot of guys looking for the same thing.

    Be up front and dont lead people on and you will be fine.

    Thats the world we live in today.

    It's a big change coming out of a relationship and being free and single can be exciting.

    Last time I was just out of a relationship I enjoyed myself. Used online dating to meet a girl who was in a similar situation and just wanted sex. It worked out well. We would meet up 2 or 3 times a week while also meeting other people.

    My ex was a confident girl and she really enjoyed herself sexually. We stayed friends and she would admit to having a similar thing where her already high sex drive increased due to wanting to meet new people. She used online dating too to good success.

    So I would say take advantage of the freedom and enjoy yourself.
