alcohol and sex
| Sat, 11-04-2006 - 7:04pm |
Every now and then SO suggests something that I'm hesitant about, but after a few drinks, I'm a willing participant. I never regret doing these things, but it does take a few drinks to lose my inhibitions. I'm just curious whether there's anyone else who uses a few drinks to overcome their hesitancy to experiment or try something new.

Alcohol loosens the inhibitions, but you have to question why you NEED alcohol to be completely free with your SO? Also, are you later saying, well, I wouldn't have done that if I'd been sober?
Many people have a drink or two to relax, but if you have to drink to get loose, then maybe you need to try to figure out why......before you become dependent on alcohol to be able to allow yourself to enjoy experimentation.
Remember also, that experimentation is just that. You try something, even if you're hesitant.....and then you say "that was great"......or "never again"! If two people DON'T experiment occasionally, what a boring and dull sex life they will have.

Sure, I've done things during "drunk sex" that I might not have done sober. But, nothing that was regretful, if that makes any sense. I certainly don't drink to have sex, but it does seem to losen things up, like I tend to talk more.
I agree that if you need it, you need to look at why. But, I don't think that was what you were saying, was it?
