"Hey y’all! It’s been ages since I actually posted (or feels like it has?) How’s everybody been? So I’ve been having a bit of a rough time the past month or so, and I’ve seem to have noticed a bit of a shift mentally in myself. As I used to love being casual with guys, and be the “fun girl” Now, not sure if it’s because I’ve got no testosterone in my body so my libido is like 0 or whatever. Mind u, I can still really really enjoy sex (tho lately it has been with connection and not just .. mindless sex) and love it in the moment, but the before… like when I’m alone. I just can’t seem to crave it. Can anybody relate? Also For some personal reasons, I had to sort of recover and isolate myself for the past 10 days at home after going to the hospital, so I’m Not sure if I’m going though a bit of a low grade depression phase or whatever.. But either way, I feel so disassociated with my older self (and I’m sort of badly judging myself for it) and it’s freaking me out! Anyway, sending big kisses to all of you " Welcome back, you have been missed. Do but don't judge yourself, if that makes sense. Look back, reflect, improve if you want to. | |||

X And yes I don’t know why my mind automatically goes there and thinks that way. I don’t regret it, it just feels so strange if I sit down with it. Particularly when I had my crazy binge year like more than a year ago. | |||

"Yay your back! I think mst of us have down moments, I go off sex for months!! Don't over think it or force something that isn't there, just be you. " Yay trying to pop back here and there I’m glad tho I’m not alone feeling like this and that it happens a lot, and that it can be just a spell/phase I’m still having some good sex, but it’s just with one individual (tho we agreed no feelings from start) and I don’t seem to need it elsewhere. But even if I didn’t have it, I don’t think I’d want it | |||

"My sex drive can be very up and down, I had a Mirena coil fitted that played havoc with my moods and I was very low and lost it for months. It’s gone now and I’m slowly getting back to normal but low mood and hormones are definitely linked to sex drive. It sounds like you’ve got a bit of internal conflict going on between different versions of your self, I hope you can manage to be kind to yourself and accept them all so you can find some peace in it all. You say you’re judging yourself but at the top of your post you used the word ‘fun’ for yourself, which is quite a positive word so I wonder what the conflict is that you’ve got going on there? Priorities change in life and that’s ok. Sending love x" I guess maybe I’m going through a bit of an internal conflict and it’s freaking me out a bit at the thought process I’m having in my own head? I did have fun, back then.. cos it was fun. Would I particularly find it appealing now? Mmm maybe not. But I wonder if it’s the sex drive being so low making me think this way. I’ve certainly came to the realisation, that the sex I’ve been having lately was more of a meaning for me to connect with the guy, rather than the actual need of having sex. | |||

"Hi and great to see you back. An old fb of mine has really been through the mill mentally, judging herself on how she had sex with so many guys whilst in the moment of casual meets. She was meeting a guy or two a week and living it at the time but then had a time out and developed the hibbie jibbies about it. I said to her you enjoyed what you was doing back then so just treat it as a past experience, don’t dwell on the past because at the time it was harmless fun. Must be awful to let the mind play it’s tricks...stay strong, life’s to short to dwell on. J " Thanks for the welcome back! That’s how I’m feeling too. I swear it’s very similar to that story. | |||

" The meets were fun and what happens back in the moment is how you were feeling at that time. If your views have changed then so be it, draw a line under that particular period and enjoy who you are and how your enjoying your sex lifestyle now. Please don’t let the mind get carried away....just shout out FUCK IT and laugh when the demons come | |||

"It's just 'life'. I've never known anyone that's permanently happy, content, on a constant buzz and always feeling positive - I'd worry if someone was. It's totally natural to have ebbs and flows when it comes to sex and any craving or desire for it. Bodies need a break both physically and mentally every now and then. It's perfectly healthy to have downtime and take a break, and to change your perspective as and when you choose. Nothing wrong with wanting something different either temporarily or permanently. And definitely nothing wrong with taking a break from here. Jeez - the longest I've had was years! A" Yes I totally understand life is full of ups and downs , but personally speaking without going much into details, this year is very positive as I’ve had a lot of good things happen to me. I guess it’s just been emotionally tough | |||

It's a case of going from one extreme state to another, a bit like sub drop or a huge hangover after a cracking night out. Things can also build up without realising even when things seem great and the smallest trigger can bring all of the negatives out at once. Nice to see you back but don't ever feel bad for taking 'you time' and prioritising yourself over anything and anyone else. A | |||

"I cannot relate much to all the things you mentioned, other than the connection/intimacy aspect of sex. I know now more than ever before that if I am not comfortable going out for drinks/movie/or just chill with a woman without the expectation of sex (every single time), than I don't think I want to have sex with that woman. Especially when meeting someone from fab, there is always that expectation of SEX...but meaningless sex becomes boring very quick...we are human beings, at some point we just want a bit more, something more meaningful...an actual connection with another human being. Hope you are well...and it's good to see you again " Hey M! I totally get where u are coming from, I guess as it’s fab there’s this huge expectation of sex and performing and being a certain way, maybe? And yes meaningless sex becomes boring very quick. That’s why I think a good connection beats that, or at least that’s how I find myself at the moment. Connecting and then sex (if it happens) will be amazing x | |||

While tough, it also sounds perfectly "normal" and relatable to me - you may one day feel like you used to again or not, but either way it's all good. We're beings that evolve, and need/want different things at different times in our lives. No right or wrong path! | |||
