**Throwaway. My SO and various other friends roam the Reddit universe.
I was reading a submission a while ago (can’t find the link, unfortunately) about who you’ve always wanted to have sex with but couldn’t because of an SO. It was an interesting topic, and I really enjoyed reading it. Most of it was pretty standard, like “uptight boss” or “girlfriend’s best friend”, and some of it was pretty out-there and fun to hear. It was great to see people being so candid, and was also very reassuring that it was understood “of course, I love my SO enough to keep from doing it.”
But then I began thinking about who I would have sex with, and I drew a blank. I realized that the thought of having sex with someone other than my SO, even someone who I am ridiculously attracted to, makes me feel sick. The thought of putting a not-my-boyfriend’s-penis inside of me is such a huge turnoff. Just the thought of lying in bed with someone who is not my boyfriend, pre- or post-coitus, makes me cringe.
I am curious as to whether this is unusual. I know that humans are sexual creatures, and it doesn’t strike me as odd that people would want to sleep with someone other than their SO. But I’m just not feeling it for anyone else.
TL;DR – I don’t want to have sex with anyone other than my SO. Does anyone else feel the same way?
EDIT: For those who are addressing it, I have had plenty of casual sex encounters, all of which were rather enjoyable and completely emotional-ties-free. I have never had the problem of separating sex and feelings.
