So i haven't been in a relationship for over 4 years. A little bit lonely and sex starved. What do you do in between relationships? Is no strings sex acceptable for a woman in her 40s these days?! Blush

Not having sex is also perfectly fine

Get tae fuck!

Op, tinder doesn't post anything to Facebook. If you don't want the Facebook connection then make a fake Facebook profile and log in through that. Ok Cupid seems good at first but the distance filters don't work and I get endless messages from blokes 100s and even 1000s of miles away. Waste of time.

It's perfectly fine to be a wobbly size 16; lots of men prefer that!

Also casual sex is fun and satisfying if you a) have confidence and know what you like and b) only do it with people you have chemistry with

Without that emotional closeness it can be not enjoyable.

Rubbish! It may be that way for you but don't assume it's that way for everyone.

I had plenty of some great no-strings fun before I met DH.

No, YANBU to ask on an anonymous internet forum how other women deal with their sexual urges outside of a committed relationship.

Have you thought of swinging clubs?

Friends of mine rave about them.... Blush

Some of the best sex I've ever had was a series of one night stands with a guy I was just a little acquainted with. He was an accomplished lover but part of what made the sex so amazing was the fact that we had no other relationship with each other. It was like we were locked in a challenge to take the other to higher and higher levels of pleasure, occasionally stopping to savour the other's work before taking it to the next level. It was amazing just pure lust and physicality in a way that could never have happened if we had a relationship.

Goes off to look him up on Facebook.

jobergamot · 25/07/2017 20:12

Haha crafty can you see if he's got a brother??!

craftsy · 25/07/2017 20:32

Fuuuck!!! I've just found his profile and he's the best looking man in his forties that I've ever seen outside of American television. He was good looking 20 years ago but my god is he fine now.

I don't know whether to feel turned on or insecure about how different I look now. Pregnancy left me with stretch marks, a badly healed c-section scar and diastis recti. So I don't think I could have fun confident sex with such a gorgeous man again.Sad

Fabswingers.......

That is all.

I honestly don't see how any women struggles to find sex..
Meet men on nights out, bars, online, friends of friends etc..
talk for abit, see if you like them.. give them the go ahead, become fwb.

Confidence would have a lot to do with it, if I see a man I like in the bar, I will look over a few times and see if he's looking across too, I am pretty confident anyway but add a couple of glasses of wine and if I like the look of the man I will go over, introduce myself, have a chat, I always give my number and don't take there's.. always say something crappy like you have my number, if you want to message me you can. That way it takes out the whole who's going to message first crap.
And take it from thereWink

@craftsy if you don't contact him you'll never know Smile

And I'm assuming he enjoyed the sex just as much as you did? Explosive chemistry like that is rare - it might well have been just as unique and mind-blowing for him, and something he'd love to revisit. I'd start with a hello and see if it leads to some shared reminiscences - and who knows what else Wink

Ladies, you all sound like Bel Mooney from the Mail on Sunday. She makes me want to throw up as well. Stop being coy and give men the signals we want to see - a wink, a longing look, a squeeze of the left buttock. Let us know you're interested. Some may think you're a forward hussey but that's a risk worth taking. Personally, I'd think Christmas had come early.
