Do guys miss sex with their exes?

If they're over her emotionally? I'm worried my boyfriend still thinks about or has sexually thought about his ex-girlfriend who he was with and had sex with 3 years ago. We've been together more than twice as long (13 months) and we haven't had sex because I'm staying a virgin for a while. He hasn't pressured me to do anything and he respects my boundaries, but I'm worried that he misses getting anything and thinks about his past and most recent experiences which were only with her. He says he moved on from her a long time ago, but do guys still do this regardless?

  • Yes, we do. We miss it, and we think about it from time to time. However, men are able to compartmentalize sex and relatioships fairly well. We can still love a woman and still miss something about having sex with another GF. It doesn't mean he is not committed to you. It's just how we work.

  • He doesn't miss sex _with his ex_.

    He probably misses _sex_.

    Unless his drive is reeeeally low. Are you doing anything else, or nothing?

    • I hope that's how he thinks about it! I just assumed that if he missed sex, he must also miss it together with her. Maybe not. We get into passionate making out a lot, but nothing below the waist.

    • I'd be missing below the waist. A lot.

  • If he says he moved on, then he moved on.

    He probably does miss the sexual encounters with his girlfriend, but he doesn't miss his "girlfriend": He misses the "memories". That is an important distinction.

    If this guy wanted to get back with his ex, he would have broken up with you long ago. He loves you. He is emotionally bound to you, and you ONLY.

    Emotions and sexuality are two distinct things for us guys. Like Guppy said, we compartmentalize well, and separate love from sex in our minds.

  • Yes. Not miss it like -'it was the best ever and I wish I had that again' but every girl has differences and you have the memory and the experience and sometimes you crave that experience.

    I have some very fond memories of girls in the past. It doesn't mean I want them back or wish I was with them - but they are fond memories of a VERY good time. :-)

  • yes, I even think back to the times I've had sex with my old girl friends.

  • I miss my ex because she would literally do ANYTHING.

  • If it was good sex, yeah I still think about it sometimes. Maybe she did a position that I really liked all the time or something about her technique or w/e. It doesn't make me want to go back to her. Just fun to think about it.
