How Bad Sex is Like.. Getting a Sunburn

It’s happened to the best of us (Am I talking about bad sex or getting sunburnt? Yes, I’m talking about both). Fortunately, we trucked on through and got by. We learned our lesson (hopefully) and know now to avoid this situation next time.

You didn’t think this through. It seemed like a great idea to lie in the sun all day with only an SPF 15 tanning oil on, but now you know the meaning of regret. Not all things that seem like a good idea at first truly are.

Everything hurts. You let yourself down carefully on the bed and really can’t slide around, or bend, or scratch, or…well, do much of anything. Please don’t touch.

You’re self-conscious. Yes, I look like a lobster right now. Yes, I’m sweating profusely and getting hot and cold flashes. Yes, I’m not very happy with my body at the moment. Every time you look in the mirror, you get reminded of your actions.

Aloe is the only thing that matters to you. You really don’t want to be around anyone in this moment. Unless you’re just going to lather me up, please don’t bother with anything else.

You thought summertime freedom was for things like this. You were excited for summer beach days, flings, hookups.. but sometimes the daydreams are better than reality.

You’re friend just has to tell you “I told you so.” When you see them and they know what happened, they can’t help but get that sly smile on their face, knowing they warned you how this would all turn out. You don’t want to hear it.
