I’ve been in your shoes, and I know how tempting it can be to call up an ex when you’re single and craving intimacy. It’s like your brain is telling you, “Hey, here’s an easy solution!” But as convenient as it might seem, there’s always a catch. Reconnecting with an ex, even for just physical reasons, can sometimes bring more complications than it’s worth.
The familiarity is probably what’s drawing you back. It’s not just about the sex—it’s about the comfort of being with someone who already knows you and your body. That’s a hard thing to find with someone new. But at the same time, you have to consider the baggage that comes with it. He might misinterpret your intentions or use the opportunity to try and manipulate you, especially if he has a history of lying.
You’ve done the hard work of moving on emotionally, and that’s something to be proud of. Going back to him, even temporarily, might feel like a step backward. Plus, there’s always the risk of opening old wounds or creating new ones. You’ve got to ask yourself if the short-term satisfaction is worth the potential long-term stress.
If you’re not comfortable with a random stranger, that’s totally valid. But maybe there’s a middle ground—someone new who you feel safe and comfortable with. It could be a way to satisfy your needs without the complications of revisiting the past. At the end of the day, you deserve to feel good about your choices, both in the moment and afterward.
