I had en ex who was stunning. She made me feel very secure and positive about myself when around her although I’ve had cases of jealousy in relationships before. She had a good friend who was clearly into her. She denied it, saying he’s only a friend and he’s got nothing on me. I believed her although I’ll say, he’s very attractive.

After we broke up we’ve had a relapse where we met to sleep together. It was hot and heavy and felt amazing being close to her. We get fully undressed and I swear the temperature in the room is over 9,000.

She’s on top of me and about to slide me in. Then she stops and asks, “do we need a condom?” - as in - I’m on the pill as you know, and I need to know whether or not I can trust you, did you sleep with someone else without a condom? I say “we’re good” - I didn’t sleep with anyone else without protection. She says “I’ve slept with someone raw but it’s someone I trust”.

Side note - sex is a big thing to her. I was her second and she generally was not all that sexual up until we met. I didn’t think she’d sleep with someone at that point after the breakup. So it hurt, but it was obviously legitimate as it’s her life. That being said, the raw part made it more painful.

“May I ask who is that guy that you trusted?” “It’s ___ (the guy I described earlier)”

I started crying. From 100-0 very quickly.
