Why sex with your ex could be therapeutic!

True Life Experiences

by Tolulope Akinruli

The dynamics of intimacy and desire can be confounding, especially in the context of past relationships. Suddenly finding oneself drawn back to an ex-partner after a divorce, purely for sexual reasons, is a common yet complex phenomenon. Enyi, an auto dealer, found himself in such a situation, feeling amazed at the resurgence of sexual chemistry with his ex-wife, Pamela, years after their separation.

Enyi attributed his renewed interest in Pamela to her physical transformation and newfound sexual prowess, which reignited his desire for her. However, the sexologist consulted on the matter cautioned that while enjoyable, the resurgence of passion post-divorce is often temporary. The absence of previous conflicts and resentments during the divorce process can create an illusion of romantic idealism, enhancing the sexual experience.

He emphasized that successful long-term relationships require more than just physical attraction. Factors like personality, intelligence, humor, and kindness play crucial roles in sustaining a meaningful connection. Enyi’s fixation on the physical aspect of his relationship with Pamela may overlook deeper issues that led to their initial separation.

Enyi acknowledged the temporary nature of their revived intimacy but expressed contentment with the current state of affairs. He was not eager to rush into marriage again, even if their reunion resulted in another child. Despite enjoying the passionate encounters with Pamela, Enyi prioritized personal growth and stability over rekindling a formal partnership.
