Women will drop their panties in a heartbeat for the rock star or jock but for someone they claim to want a "real relationship" with they'll put them through the ringer.

Woman here. In my opinion, it depends on what the woman is looking for at that time. If she wants a relationship or an emotional connection, she needs to build an emotional connection with that man. If she just wants to have fun, she does not need an emotional connection. Then it is just sex.

So then why do women make the men they love jump through hoops while they'll have wild sex and f*ck feasts with men they don't care about? Seems to me this is one f*cked up notion.

Because they're mentally ill.

I can assure you that getting laid on the regular is a huge upside to getting separated and divorced. And many women think like this, myself most enthusiastically is included in this group.

I would say that the hook up culture is probably 20% of people, even on college campuses. The Sex and The City, I got divorced and date five people at once crowd is not the majority, even for men.

Good lord, is sleeping with multiple people that uncommon? Since my separation, I've had sex with 8 people. One of them is an ongoing FWB, so I'm usually seeing the other people in close timing to being with him.

I like sex. I'm reasonably attractive. I don't have hang-ups about hooking up. I'm safe and I get tested.

I have a new guy I recently met who I think will be #9.

Do you live in a college town? Can you hire a student for some domestic help and then, one day, greet him in a nightgown holding a glass of wine?

Yet you say nothing about the woman advertising she wants sex after a recent breakup? Now that's pathetic.

No, it's not. She's going to go online and search for what she wants, not hit on faceless posters on a non-dating site.

I'm willing to provide her with whatever she wants, including pics and meeting public at first. Maybe not all men are pathetic and are actually sick of playing the online dating dance crap game and wants to meet someone who has clear expectations upfront if there is mutual sexual attraction?

But she didn't post here saying, "hey, guys, looking for a lay! Anyone interested?" She wanted to talk about her thoughts and feelings. And then a bunch of mopes rush in saying, " 'sup?" This isn't a dating site; let her have this as a safe space to talk about, not do it.

I agree. I've had more sex in the last year than in my entire marriage - or close! I'm in casual relationships with three guys (yes, protection is a must) and have sex at least twice a week but not with each one! After years of feeling undesirable it is a joy to feel the exact opposite. I'd love to get back into a LTR and I'm now very confident in the bedroom skills I can bring to the relationship. My ex made me feel like a loser.

There is an endless supply of horndogs out there.

(Getting popcorn ready as this should be really interesting)

Emotional connection is important in a long term relationship. I think op is looking for something different here.

Soon after I separated, I went on a bunch of online dates and ended up sleeping with a couple of them. One guy was recently separated, one was never married but had broken off an engagement, and one was widowed. None of us were looking for anything long term, just a connection and physical intimacy. And I'm actually still friends with them, without benefits. They're good guys.

I also had a one night stand with a younger guy I met at a conference.

Sometimes sex is just sex. I knew I wasn't ready for a relationship then, but it was fun to blow off steam.
