Is it bad to have casual sex after a breakup?

A female United States age 36-40, anonymous writes:

So my question may seem a little odd. More from curiosity than the need for advice. Basically I have had a series of bad relationships broke up with my long term bf. Met an amazing man. Moved in with him. Then he list his job and we lost our place and he moved 6 hours away. I'm reluctant to start a new relationship due to the fact I'm still getting over my last breakup from the man I was living with. I'm currently staying with a friend and her bf. He has a really attractive friend that comes around and we have actually had sex a couple of times. I have never been one to particupate in casual sex but for some reason I prefer it this way right now. We rarely really hang out. Especially not alone except when we hook up. When we do hang out alone we end up having sex right away and then one of us leaves. We text occasionally but nothing serious. And for some reason I'm perfectly ok with just having sex with him and going our separate ways. I don't quite understand how before I could never have done this. I guess my question is why have I changed so much? And is this type of relationship based purely on sex a bad thing?

Bad is a judgment call. It bothers some women, not others. It bothers some men, not others.

Personally I find it trashy. But that's just me.

Aunty Susie agony auntIt doesn't sound like anyone is getting hurt. I assume you are practicing 'safe sex'. Both are consenting adults. Enjoy yourself.

DoubleM agony auntUh, well, when I was about your age and from a man's point of view, it worked okay for me and apparently for the girls as well. As a much older man now, it still works and seems okay with the older women involved. To each, his (or her) own . . .
