Nothing wrong with it if you can cope with a no strings attached game of racket ball as Richard and Monica had it in friends.

If you aren't over it, it's a bad scene.

It's a bad scene for the emotionally involved because usually they are bonded by all the intimacy and oxytocin, keep hoping for a change of heart, are doomed to be disappointed and end up feeling used.

Generally, sleeping with someone you care about when you know they don't feel the same way makes you feel bad about yourself.

From personal experience it's not a great idea. I have felt like I've been going through a break up for about a year. Because it's been so on and off. But I have never really got over the relationship ending. If you still have romantic feelings for him, I would really really urge you to stay away. You are only going to get your heart broken again.

You'll never meet Mr Right if you're still attached to Mr Wrong. All you're doing is opening up the wound and you're setting yourself up for all the heartache again.

Thank you .. I knew it deep down but am feeling very vulnerable at the moment. No excuse but... think it'll have to be NC from now on.
