And I always have friends around somewhere to make sure that I'm not texting or calling. They know how bad it can be, and they know what I'm going through. They've done it for me before, and I've done it for a few of them.
That kind of thing doesn't have to make you feel bad. I guess you have to have the right mindset, and make sure your hookup does too: two adults can have sexy fun together and it can be just that. A fun night. It doesn't have to fix you or mean anything (or not mean anything) or make you feel bad or make you feel better, it can just be fun. Like riding a roller coaster or going for a bike ride. It just happens to have that other person involved. Human touch is healing if you take the right attitude about it. Also drinking is ok but make sure you're not both totally ****faced.
Good luck Street rider and Tmonk. It gets better.
