Sex after break up

[Stephejkb]

Interested to know this. My partner and I have had a separation for a few weeks due to many stresses coming between us. We still live together and we are hoping to work things out. How does this work with sex while we are in the “working things out” period? Should I still initiate sex after a week or so? Xx

Why are you waiting a week??

If you can separate sex as transactional, then go for it.

If you’re going to attach misty eyed sentiment to it and see it as “making love” then don’t.

Even typing making love, makes me want to be violently sick!

Well yeh we usually have very close intimate sex but I’m not sure if I will push things too quick if I initiate it xx

We are not the type to have sex while we are in a bad place if that makes sense xx

Sex not in a stable relationship messes with your head imo...
