“Double Dipping” – Going Back to An Ex Just for Sex

“Double Dipping” – Going Back to An Ex Just for Sex

Now I KNOW I’m not alone when I mention “sex with my ex.” We all have that one ex whose sex was our kryptonite and no matter how much we tried to resist, we were too weak to NOT  give in. There have been rumors that you shouldn’t “double dip,” but what happens when you know it’s wrong but you just can’t help yourself?

After my ex and I broke up, I can’t lie, it hurt. Love isn’t easy to get through. I would think about all the good times we spent together and miss them because we were like the best of friends. One thing that I constantly thought about was the sex. Never mattered how upset I was that we ended, just the thought of his sex would put the brightest smile on my face. It was almost embarrassing how I missed the sex more than I had missed him. There were times I caught myself fantasizing about sex we had or fantasies we wanted to live out. I never had a sexual connection that strong to make me feel so weak. After suffering from withdrawal because I wasn’t dealing with anyone since we broke up, my weakness took over. Scorpios have the highest sex drive that it’s ridiculous. We think about sex way more than anyone else; even after sex we are thinking about the next time we’re getting more. I started fiending for my kryptonite and gave in. I knew it was a bad idea but I needed that fix! I desired that “temporary happiness” so, I DOUBLE DIPPED. It was so wrong but it felt so right. Of course with every bad idea there are consequences, let me explain the “pro’s & con’s” to “temporary happiness.”

Pro’s

• Good time – At the moment it is fun and exhilerating
• Innocent – Your number of partners stay low
• Strokes ego – You already know what your partner likes
• Comfortable – Sex with your ex means you’ve been there already so you know your way around
• Keeps you active during off season – No cob webs! Who knows when will be the next time you find someone else

Con’s

• Feelings return – You began to want that old thing back
• Reminisce on where things went wrong – Remember all the drama you went through
• Grudges return – Reasons why you guys broke up will resurface
• Risk getting pregnant or catch STD – You are now in a non-monogamous relationship

I’m still stuck trying to figure out for myself if I should continue “Double Dipping” for my “temporary happiness” or cut my losses and just forget about it all. I am not here to tell you ladies what the right choice is because at the end of the day we all know what makes US happy. I am not here to tell you if “Double Dipping” is good or bad, but I am here to tell you that if you are fine with the “Pro’s and Con’s” it comes with and you have no problem dealing with them just for that “temporary happiness,” then do what makes YOU happy.
