Missing Physical

Fwb is the only respite I found. I didn’t want to cheat even though things were over but with no one to hug or sleep next to I was unraveling. It wasn’t even about sex. Just being close to a person.

I know the sudden lack of physical touch is a really hard adjustment to make. I just wanted to reach out and check in. I know that void can feel heavy, so I'm around if you ever just need an ear.

Within a couple weeks of filing divorce I was out talkin to women and getting numbers. It helped that my ex and I were still having sex for a few months. Then I found someone to be a friend with benefits, been going well since then and I’ve even managed to land a few other hook ups.

If you want it, go out and get it. The world won’t wait for you.

I was feeling the same way after my divorce - sexually starved in the marriage and wanting physical touch. So I jumped on the dating apps, the one's more specific to hookups. I went crazy and met and hooked up with a lot of women. It was very gratifying because during my marriage it was a dead bedroom with my ex and yet I was being told by the women I was sexually involved with that I was an excellent lover. That's something my ex would never say, let alone just being able to talk about sex in general.

Anyhow, just take the plunge and get out there and enjoy yourself sexually!

This is is exactly what I miss the most too. I haven't slept next to a woman let alone had sex with one in more than 6;or 8 months and it is really difficult.

What has helped is that I have a girlfriend now but she and I aren't sleeping in the same bed and are going very slow. This is probably seen as ridiculous but I am ok with not jumping in too deep.

Don't know about yall but I'm waiting for my 304 AI girl to get manufactured. In the mean time I shall watch dirty things online whilst one hand does what it needs to do and the other hand slaps me in the face saying stop it.
