10 Reasons Why Your One-Night Stand Was Actually a Great Thing
“一夜限りの関係がどうしてすごく良かったのか10の理由”
1. 彼らのイメージが酷い現実に変わることがないから。
本来は数週間、数ヶ月かけて変わる可能性があることが見えずに記憶の中で美化しちゃう。
2. 2人がお互いにとってなんなのかを考える必要がないから。
"これは何か意味があるよね"ってめんどい。だってそれは"私たちはやったけど、今はもう話してない"ってだけ。
3. 相手のくずかもしれない友達に会う必要がないから
4. 寝 た だ け
ただただいろんな人と寝るのが好き。ゆっくり味わって、おいしくいただきます。最悪なセックスだったらそんなことしないけど。
5. 好きなものでデコレーションしまくってる部屋を持ってるか、他と比べても別に悪くない部屋を持ってると思っているから。
自分の部屋は最悪だと思ってるかもだけど、壁があるべき場所にシーツなんて必要ないと思ってる。
6. 帰る前に彼のものを盗んでまだ持ってる。
盗みを擁護するわけじゃないし、したことないけど、返してって言われないのわかってて服を借りてきた友達がいて、まだ持ってる。セクシャルおみやげね。ありがと！
7. 幸せな性ホルモンはストレスを減らして、長生きできる。
たとえ相手に恋してなくても、専門家が言うには、オキシトシンとエンドルフィンのおかげでまじで幸せになれるんだって。
8. セックスで十分運動したらその日ジムに行かなくていいから。
ジムに行きたくない日は十分運動してなくても運動したことにカウントしてる。
9. もし相手が気になってた人だったら、"この人どうなんだろう"ってもう悩まずに生きて行けるから。
気になる人とのセックスはどんなのだろうって想像することもなくなるの、なぜなら、もうあなたはそれを知ったし、2回戦するほどじゃないって知ってるから。
10. セックスが良くなくても、とりあえずもう二度と会わなくていいから！
何のプレッシャーも義務も、最悪なセックスのあとの気まずいコーヒーもなし。

相変わらず下衆い記事ばっかのCosmopolitan。中学の時から読んでる。5の意味がわかんない。
uri;)
1. Your image of them will never be tarnished with a brutal reality. If this was someone you were dating and you finally slept together, you'd probably have this glowing, fantastic image of them in your mind that would potentially be ruined a few weeks/months down the line when you realize they use their belly button as a place to put dip into and then dip chips into that hole. No, this is not my personal story but I'm sure it's someone's.
2. You don't have to wonder what you two are to each other. No "what does this all meeeean" headaches for you. Because what it meant was "we boned and now we do not speak."
3. You don't have to meet his potentially garbage friends. Meeting your soul mate and sleeping with them among candlelight and Band of Horses songs? So good. Having sex with a guy and never having to meet his buddies from his recreational kickball league who are all named Tyler? Priceless.
4. You got laaaaaid. Like, with another person! Are you aware of how tremendously kickass that is?! Relish in this. Savor it. Unless it was bad sex, in which case, I'm sorry.
5. You either got apartment decorating inspiration or realized that your place is really not that bad by comparison. You might think your room is crappy but at least you don't have a sheet where a wall should be, am I right?
6. You stole something of his before you left, so now you have that. I'm not advocating stealing, nor would I ever, but I do know friends who have taken home borrowed hoodies and T-shirts fully knowing he wouldn't ask for them back and now they have dope sexual souvenirs. Thank you, sex!
7. Happy sex hormones reduce stress and make you live longer. Even if you're not in love with the person, James Coan, Ph.D., professor of psychology at the University of Virginia in Charlottesville, says you still release oxytocin and endorphins, both of which make you really happy. So you'll feel really awesome for however long that lasts. It's like a free high that also came with orgasms. Win-win.
8. You probably don't have to go to the gym that day if the sex was active enough. And let's be honest, even if it was minorly active, I'm going to count it as exercise anyway because the gym is the worst.
9. If it's someone you have had your eye on, you can live without any more "what ifs" in your head. No more wondering what sex with Jeremy will be like, because now you know exactly what sex with Jeremy was like and it was not worthy of a second round. Peace, sucka!
10. Even if the sex wasn't great, you never have to see him again anyway! No pressure, no obligation, no awkward cup of coffee after he treated your vag like a Tilt-A-Whirl. Just you, alone, watching TV and smiling like a boss.
