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?

    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.

    Go get some sexy time but don't go out alone.

    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.:)

    Never make your most important decisions when you are in your worst moods.
    Wait. Be patient. The storm will pass.

    I think you made a wise choice OP.

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

    Get over yourself FFS.

    Soo, not getting the ride then?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 14,728 ✭✭✭✭Earthhorse


    Do it if you want to OP but if it's what you really wanted I don't think you'd be posting in AH about it.

    I always think these mysterious girls are actually guys, then think why don't girls ever do likewise then I see the responses and then think why cant I just be as unassuming :(

    Sure no harm so, he was probably busy taking his other girlfriend out on the actual Valentines day anyway..................................

    TIL: When women end relationships they have a strong urge to be kinda slutty.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 303 ✭✭paulheu


    Well, you seem to be home still, so just sit it out and sleep it off.. You'll feel much better in the morning waking up on your own.. And if you still want some you can always choose to PM some of us losers, cheaper than going to a bar even.... ;) See, made you smile just now!


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,195 ✭✭✭irish son


    Good choice op, it's to soon, you would be doing it for the wrong reasons. Go out next weekend with the girls and do some flirting and take it from there :)


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 289 ✭✭ashers22


    have you ever tried lesbianism, just out of curiosity.

    You sound like a good lady for saving money... I could do with a lady like you....

    My wife spends all my money .... :mad:

    Have your night in and just move on and take up knitting or fishing while you get over it . We've all been there . It just takes time.

    Good luck :)
