Just wondering if sex with a friend automatically means you cannot be just friends anymore. For example if I sleep with a friend but was never in a relationship with that person and it happened only twice and it was almost 2 years ago is it disrespectful to your current SO if you still text and talk on the phone with said friend??? Can you still label that person as just a "friend" even after having had sex with them?

No, it is not disrespectful to your current girlfriend/boyfriend to remain friends with someone you have had a prior sexual relationship with.
Look, the key to a successful relationship is trust. So you set boundaries that help establish and assure trust. You don't say or do anything with other people that you wouldn't say or do in front of your SO. As long as whatever you are texting or talking to your old friend about is something you can say in front of your current SO there should be no problem.

Sure you can. Some people call their ex wives and ex husbands friends after they got a divorce. Not all past relationships have to be toxic.
Certainly not a friend. A former lover. Maybe touch base here and there but IMO, the relationship should change , as in be scaled back a lot , since you now are going to be in a relationship with someone else.
It depends. I slept with one of my good friends, and I still introduce my girlfriends to her. Nobody knows about our hookups except us; I've never mentioned our past to any of my gf's and she's never told her husband because frankly nobody needs to know.
