Why Sext An Ex?

The first thing you have to do is determine the real reason you want to sext your ex. You absolutely must be honest with yourself. Do you want to get back together? Maybe you just want to have a little fun and think she would go for it. Whatever the reason, you have to know what you are after and firmly stick to it. Not doing so can lead to trouble and drama for both of you. Not knowing the real reason you are sexting an ex is dangerous.

Is Alcohol Involved When you Sext an Ex?

When sexting an ex under any circumstance, drinking alcohol is a big no-no. With just a little alcohol in your system you can say things you never meant to. This can go two ways. You could tell you love her, miss, her, can’t live life without her when all you really want is a good time. You could also get mean and say rude, unpleasant things you don’t mean. Either way, you’ve made an ass out of yourself and probably not for the first time or you wouldn’t be broken up. [ People Share Their Shameful Drunk Dailing Stories ]

Are You Feeling Weak? Dont Sext An EX

Feeling depressed, down, or lonely is not a good time to be sexting an ex. You aren’t yourself and just need a bit of affirmation. Wait until you feel better and see if you still want to sext her. You may change your mind. Sexting an ex when you feel this way can get you in trouble. When you are more yourself you may not feel the same way but now you’ve started something she may not want to end. Don’t make any decisions about sexting an ex until you feel strong and confident.
