Dallas Bragg discusses finding satisfying sex while sober. He argues against rushing or giving up when early attempts disappoint, instead treating each unsatisfying encounter as data that helps you figure out what actually works for you.
We want a fulfilling sex life now. And that doesn't allow for, you know, stumbling, right?
Like, I wanted to find a fulfilling sex life.
And some of the places that I looked were not it, right?
Like, some of the things that I tried, just like, it's like, fuck, this isn't, this isn't it. And as opposed to like despairing, like, no, like, this means that it's just not out there. That's right. Like, okay, this thing is not it. This is not the, this is not the new thing for me. What else is there?
That's exactly right. Exactly right. You have to keep pushing on. You have to keep experimenting. It's actually, actually such an opportunity for you to have a clean slate and to rediscover and reclaim who you are sexually through this process, isn't it?
