Every time I hook up with girls I feel empty after (wife, girlfriend)

[Hawk50]

I'm a late bloomer - 24, only hooked up with about 10 women, but each time afterwards I feel empty. Not guilty, not sad, not gross, just empty.

I feel there are so many better things I could have spent my time doing. Reading, hanging with my bros, spending time with family, watching football etc.

Why is this?

Dude, you are 24 and 10 already women already? Wow. I am guessing that you are having sex with them with no emotions.

You could do all these things with the women too.

It's called a quick fix. And it's not what you really want.

Ten people is not too bad for a guy. There are some that have triple that

so what is the problem? Either stop the behavior or don't ....obviously you like it the way that it is then.

some of these people act like they have no control over their own bodies. they are just acting on their own or something.

It's hard to just stop if you have a strong sex drive.

You feel empty? I used to revel in emotionless sex when I did want to have sex. It wasn't often but call a friend, have sex and do my own thing again.

"Hooked up". ??? You mean had sex? (That term is used for too many things these days...I wish you would simply say what you mean.) Casual sex? No-strings sex? One night stands? I am assuming that you are referencing of those meanings. Not sure why you would expect anything more than whatever you get from the moment. That's all it is...a moment.

Having a girlfriend or wife would be even worse!!!! Might as well forget about women and just read a book.

Not sure what to make of this thread.

Either be with a woman you care about, or do you're own thing.
