So...you broke up! Done! Ended! No More! But, every now and then you catch yourself 'dippin-n-dabbin'! Can sleeping with an EX really be as dangerous to your psyche as they say?
Yes, if you and your ex are even remotely still connected to one another emotionally the only thing being intimate does is make those feelings seem more intense. So then you find yourself wondering if there is a way to still work things out with one another when in reality there is nothing there. Being intimate with your ex just hits a nerve, sort of like stubbing your toe. You know your toe is there but once you hit it, it begins to hurt. Now you have to be careful not to hit it again because the pain will just come rushing back
so it begs the question, are 'true emotions' really that controllable? if so, doesn't that completely nullify the whole notion of love and all it's intangibles being an uncontrollable, irrational emotion??? is it REALLY possible to put one's feelings aside? or is it something we say just to play the part???
While you might not be able to control your emotions, you do have the ability to control your reaction to those emotions. So if you can't be with the one you love, love the one your with. Even if its only temporary (a minute or an hour depending on your stamina) :-)

If both parties can agree to keep it physical and eliminate emotions, it can be some real good 'dippin-n-dabbin'
If one or both people cant agree to keep emotions under wrap then it is a downward spiral where somebody will get hurt
