To text a one night stand?

I had a one night stand 2 weeks ago. When I say one night stand, it was a one night stand however he has messaged me periodically the past 6 years basically 'what are you upto' texts that go nowhere. We have also seen each other at gathering etc but nothing ever happened.

Anyway, 2 weeks ago, he messaged me, I said come over and we had sex. It was great, I really enjoyed it. However, I haven't heard from him since and I haven't contacted him either, which is not a problem and to be expected for one night stands. But I find myself tonight really itching to text him, just offering a repeat basically.

Will this come across as desperate? I'm scared that he might reject me? I'm on the larger side (5ft 3 in, 15 stone) , my friends tell me that he wouldn't have slept with me if he had a problem with my weight but I know better.

By messaging him I am in no way hoping for a relationship, I am definetely not looking for that. Just another genuinely amazing shag.

WIBU to message him? And if not...what do I message?

You're an adult. You can do as you want.

Notimeforaname · 06/10/2021 19:38

Just text him the same thing...'what are you up to'

Matrons · 06/10/2021 19:39

Yes go for it. Life is short and good sex rare.
I'd just send a short msg like "i've been thinking about you this evening 😉" and see if he replies.

You have nothing to lose.

Text him. If you are sure you want nothing more than sex, what have you got to lose?

Frazzledmummy123 · 06/10/2021 19:43

I don't think you would be being unreasonable or look desparate as it sounds like you are both on the same page for what you want from it when you meet.

I would send a general "how are you?" or "what are you up to?" message and take it from there.

Sparklesocks · 06/10/2021 19:45

If you’re only interested in a casual thing then I wouldn’t worry about appearing desperate or what he might think etc because it’s not like you’re invested. Nothing to lose by texting him.

Chickoletta · 06/10/2021 19:46

As PPs have said, what have you got to lose here? Send a cheeky text and see how he responds.

itistragic · 06/10/2021 19:46

See I feel like rather than a general how are you, what you upto etc I need to be more direct. At least that way he can decline if not interested rather than replying out of politeness.

Text him. And have sex. Wear something makes you feel confident. And enjoy it! Own it. He's lucky to be handling that booty! Wink

@itistragic

A cheeky text saying what?
Do you have any in jokes?
Calvinlookingforhobbes · 06/10/2021 19:51

“Hey, how’s your evening going?”

Calvinlookingforhobbes · 06/10/2021 19:52

Then when he replies suggest he could always come over if he is bored/stressed etc

itistragic · 06/10/2021 19:52

What about, 'hey, I've been thinking of the other night loads 😉 would you be up for a repeat sometime?'

OP posts:
itistragic · 06/10/2021 19:53

OP posts:
itistragic · 06/10/2021 19:57

I want to have sex with you. Do you want to have sex with me. Yes or no answer only.

freudien · 06/10/2021 19:58

@Calvinlookingforhobbes

Do exactly what @Calvinlookingforhobbes is saying "how's your evening going" then he replies "you could always come over if you're boredWink" That's it
freudien · 06/10/2021 19:59

Ooh a potential FWB situation, how exciting. You’ve got to go for it! Many moons ago I had one of those and when I sent or received one of those texts it was so exciting 😂

itistragic · 06/10/2021 20:05

Right I'm just about to message 'hey, I've been thinking of the other night loads 😉 would you be up for a repeat sometime?' Is that highly embarassing?

He might well like an Are you up for it, message, but I would not like that term, it sounds cheapo.. Just be a bit seductive, and see what happens, and if he is free. for some fun.

Myusernameisnotmyusernameno · 06/10/2021 20:07

I'd say I was just thinking how fun the other night was and wondering if you fancy a repeat

DollyPartBaked · 06/10/2021 20:08

I mean i would just say 'thinking about the other night Wink - want to meet up again?'

Basically I'd drop the 'loads'. Don't fluff his ego too much Grin

@Myusernameisnotmyusernameno

Perfect, that's what I'm going with. Scared incase he didn't think the other night was much fun but nothing ventured etc.
