I resonate with your comment. Not as a woman: as a man who isn’t young, I have been through many experiences. Unfortunately, my past includes being on both sides of this fence. I have had one experience where I was in a relationship “for the pussy”, and despite that being many years ago, it’s a great regret that follows me as I grow older.
Everything was consensual and not forced, however all I did in the end was hurt them, and hurt myself further through the realisation that my choices were to blame for a relationship that was empty beyond belief, with any mutual respect dwindling heavily over the time we were together.
Sex is nice, but it shouldn’t be the focus of any relationship. Living with regrets from a bad relationship isn’t something I wish for other people to experience, as it can be a horrible state of self-realisation as it’s not a trait of a good person (which I understand since). Respect what you truly and emotionally need deep down, and be comfortable with saying “no” to something that your heart tells you is a toxic thing to get into. Life is not long enough to be forcing dishonesty.
