The advantages of "ex sex"
What's the world got against ex sex? I feel like it's very taboo -- the assumption is that it will only make life confusing. But I beg to differ: ex sex can be very healthy, very sweet, and completely unconfusing. Nothing like a little backslide to help a girl rev her engines for the racetrack!
So here are my top 10 reasons why ex sex is a good thing:
10. They already know that you don't always wear sexy underwear and your legs can be stubbly.
9. It can be very efficient: you already know exactly what to do, when. Badabing, badaboom. I'm all for efficiency. But at the same time, it can have an aura of suspense: Is he going to do that amazing thing he always did or is that only for relationships...oooh, ooh, yes...yes...YES!
8. It's comfortable, like putting on your favorite pair of socks, your oldest t-shirt, and your most comfortable underwear on all at the same time -- even if they have a few holes. Very sweet, too.
7. Likely he'll still respect you in the morning.
8. If you stay at his place, you get to snoop and see if there's evidence of other women. Chick shit in the bathroom? Bonus points for exes who can't find the condoms or need to break open a new box.
6. Force of habit: you'll already know where you're getting breakfast in the morning, so no confusion there. Same thing with the pre-bed and morning bathroom routine -- you'll already have one down: he knows you will fuss about for ten minutes before bed washing your face; you know he'll fuss around for ten minutes in the morning taking a dump.
5. You can fool yourself that he's the one who has gotten fat, not you.
4. He'll be grateful.
3. It feels faintly naughty without being really naughty.
2. It's easy.
1. It's easy, but you're not! Ex sex is never slutty! It's tough to be easy with a guy you've already screwed a kabillion times. It's sort of like magic!
I had accidental ex sex last weekend, and I have preplanned ex sex slated for this coming weekend. Yep, two different exes. And I don't feel slutty at all!
