I had a rule -- no sex with men who are on the rebound. They are on a mission: 1) Hey, I can now have it whenever and however I want it, 2) if it's available, do it, or, the worst, 3) I'll show the ex I've still got it. No matter which version it is, you can be assured that you aren't the star of the evening because of the external agenda.

Now, for YOU, Backwoods, you're in the love em/leave em position. While you are out having fun, just be sure you aren't misleading the lady that it anything but recreational. If that mutual understanding is reached, put on the raincoat and have fun.
