10 REASONS YOU SHOULD TAKE A BREAK FROM SEX

Sex can be incredible, but it can also be the giant,
panting, red elephant sitting at the dinner table.
Eliminating sex from the equation for a few months
after a breakdown (whether it be of a marriage or
otherwise) might be a good way to ease a bit of
pressure and spend a little more time getting to know
someone — which is especially great if that someone is
you.
Here are 10 sëxy reasons to take a break:

1. You’re worth far too much to sneak home in last
night’s clothes, wondering what that acrobatic
person’s last name was.

2. Imagine taking a little longer to get to know
someone before you drop your knickers and avoiding
that, “Gee, if I knew this last week, I would not have
slept with you,” feeling.

3. Contrary to popular belief, sëx with someone new
does not cure past heartaches. Better to give that heart
time to heal before you let someone else in your bed.

4. Yes, sëx is yummy but flirtations and sëxual tension
can be utterly delicious. Enjoy them a while!

5. You can wear your comfy cotton undies on dates
and your date will be none the wiser.

6. There is something to be said about totally selfish
self love. Take yourself on dates, wear sëxy
unmentionables (for your eyes only) and, at the end of
the evening, if you’re so inclined, get to know yourself
a little better.

7. STDs just love casual sëx.

8. You know that pile of clothes in your bedroom that
you keep meaning to pick up and wash? Yeah, you
don’t have to do that just yet.

9. Finding new ways to get excited and be intimate
with yourself or someone new can be incredible.

Cooking, dancing, painting, talking, exercising — the
possibilities are endless. Get to know your body, your
likes and dislikes, things that turn you on and off and
heighten your senses in other ways for a while.

10. When it does happen, it will be because you really,
really want it to. Now, that’s sexy.
