Promiscuity: Psychology of Self-Soothing with Sex (oh, and relationships)

https://youtu.be/LhA8HGz_VqY?si=ktw1qj9_dhlJ99ib

I'm not against casual sex, but I'm more aware of the consequences of it now that I've been pretty much doing the single life on and off for about 4 years since my last long term relationship ended. I see it hurt the people around me and I can see how it can hurt me. I see people around me who are promiscuous seemingly empowered by it, but I can see how it is making a lasting impact on them that will have negative consequences in their psychology, belief systems, relationships, mental health, spiritual fulfillment, etc etc. It doesn't have to be all negative, but it can be if you lack self-awareness. There is a life consequence. Every decision in your life has a price.
