"I've had A LOT of casual sex and I regret it...." True Reddit Confessions (AskReddit)

A female Reddit user talks about having a lot of casual sex (like a lot a lot), and realizes that they regret it. It left them feelign gross. She writes to the r/sex community asking for advise. She says: "I think people are free to do what they want and it is fine for people to have casual sex if that is what they want and it makes them happy. However, I have had a lot of casual sex due to unhealthy reasons. If it is unhealthy for you emotionally or anything, that is a problem. It was a problem for me. It wasn't for my pleasure. It was because I didn't want to feel alone and it was to fill an emptiness inside of me. None of them really meant anything to me. I had sex with a lot of garbage people. My ex knew I had a lot of casual sex in the past and was "fine" with it. However, he called me a slut when he ended it even though I didn't sleep with anyone else. He wasn't great. He berated me a lot in a lot of things and I just put up with it. Monday I had sex with this guy I used to hook up with to help with my sadness of him leaving and I just feel gross. I wasted all my sexual energy and time. Idk why today it is really hitting me. I just feel used even though it was my choice. How do I cope with the sadness and disappointment in myself?" Listen to the advise she recieves from Reddit users.
