I go out alot and when I do I tend to hook up with guy friends or friends of friends, casually. I've realized that I have never not felt bad or guilty at some point about any of my hook ups.
I may not feel bad about all of them now but I've definetly felt bad at somepoint. I even feel bad about hook ups I've had with boyfriends.
I don't know what to do about this.I don't feel slutty, because I know I'm not, but I do feel badly.
Should I stop hooking up with people? Try as I might that's never too easy for me. What do I do?

I'm pretty green myself, so I don't really know what that type of guilt feels like, but I do know what guilt itself is like. I'm sorry about the regret you may have, and although it may be hard, I think you should try to cut back on the amount of hook-ups you have. You may not be able to do it all at once, but the less you do it, the better. Soon you might even be able to have only sexual sort of relationships with just long-term boyfriends! Don't limit yourself from having a good time though. Keep partyin hard, just try not to give in to those types of people!! xox [ distinguishable's advice column | Ask distinguishable A Question ]
amanda63913 answered Saturday June 18 2005, 11:09 pm: my advice to you would be to stop hooking up with people.it gives u a bad reputation and you can end up pregnant or with std's. and second, i am not intending to be rude, but maybe one of your problems is that you flatter youself way too much.you think you are so hot that hooking up with guys just comes with the package!!the guy is not doing that with you because he "loves" you, its just that you are pretty and if you keep giving guys the impression that you are a slut, then thats what they are going to take you as.and they will make it even harder for you to fight that temptation.that bad feelings you have is your instinct!you know that you are doing wrong but u are not strong enough to fight it!the only way to get over this feeling is if you have someone in your heart that will forgive you and help you turn away from sin! Jesus Christ.
hope i could help
much love [ amanda63913's advice column | Ask amanda63913 A Question ]

Razhie answered Saturday June 18 2005, 8:59 pm: Although I think it's great you've identified that you don't seem to happy with your casual hook ups I think you have some more serious soul searching to do.
What exactly do you feel badly about? Is it just other people possible perceptions of your behavior or is there something you want you feel you aren't getting from these casual encounters.
My personal advice would be to stop hooking up with people for a little while. Set yourself a goal, like no hook-ups for 2 months. It might help shead some light on what your feelings really are and what it is you really want. [ Razhie's advice column | Ask Razhie A Question ]
