That Ex-Plains It
I think I finally figured it out. Why is it that it bothered me so much with the whole ex-thing?
if it wasn’t the sex then I must have cared a little. Or maybe I wanted to care more. And that way it just wouldn’t be cheap sex. If it was great sex, then that would be okay too. That would be another story because I would know it was just lust and I could understand that too. But now I guess I don’t even understand myself either. I guess I just want people to give a damn and that right there is my freaking problem.
While it’s true that I just want people to give a damn, I don’t think that was necessarily my issue here. Yeah, I probably wanted him to care a little more. I mean, who doesn’t want to feel special or like they matter more than they probably do. I think I figured it out when I said that maybe I wanted to care more. And that’s just it. I didn’t really care that much either. And so, even though the sex wasn’t so great, at least not after a couple of times, I probably just wanted the cheap easy sex too.
I realize that makes me look awful in a way, but in another way not. I mean, I guess it’s the same thing I was accusing him of, which was that he just wanted to get laid. Well, it’s not like that was such a bad thing in it of itself. I want to get laid too and for anybody else who wants to get laid, well there’s nothing wrong with that. It bothered me that that is all he wanted from me yes, but when I think of it some more, that’s really all I wanted from him. And then I struggled to reconcile that in my mind. I wanted to want more from the whole thing because then I might feel more important somehow.
But when I really look inside myself, I see that agreeing to meet up with my ex was because I kind of knew or hoped he would be an easy lay. And then when it wasn’t as good anymore, then maybe that’s when I just plain got bored. Or maybe it wasn’t as good anymore because I was bored. And maybe it pissed me off that it wasn’t boring for him so he was kind of having more fun than I was. Hmmm…
All the while, what I really liked about him was that he was new (albeit someone I’d been with before, it had been so long that he might as well have been new) and different and then certainly easy. He was also the only other one really available at the time. In other words, I had nothing else going on (a man other than Lex that is), so I might as well have sex with him. And in many ways it was all pretty shallow on my part. I admit it, sometimes I just want to get physical.
Nonetheless, I was looking for easy sex from someone whom I found to be very attractive and that’s what my ex was offering, but ultimately that stopped being stimulating pretty quickly. It’s not easy for me to be comfortable with people and I am definitely very picky when choosing a sexual partner, therefore I probably make things much harder for myself than I should. Not that I’m saying I should just sleep with others indiscriminately, but since I’m looking for some easy naughty new sex, then I have to let go of my inhibitions better so that I can get more of what I want without having to look to people from my past who will probably ultimately fall short of the fantasy anyway.
Now since I’m confessing, well I have to say I didn’t really like the shape of his penis either. See he’s uncircumcised, which on it’s own is not a problem for me, but the fact that I couldn’t bring his foreskin down far enough to really see the shape of his head always annoyed me. Of course then I began to compare to Lex’s shape, which is absolutely beautiful, so certainly that was another “point” against the ex. And again that’s shallow of me, but I can’t help it if I like to a certain shape. I would like to be able to just pick any hot guy off the street and just get the sex I want and have him then just leave me alone after that or at least not be annoying (as they invariably are), but I can’t tell just from seeing a hot guy if he’s going to have the right size, shape or know how to use it. I just never know for sure if I’m really going to want the guy until he drops his pants. Sometimes I just want to get laid right and have a good orgasm. Is that too much to ask for?
