I'd wait it out a bit personally and consider length of time as Christina asked. Like if you go weeks and start seeking out risky partners, seedy locations, etc.

I doubt that I would start seeking out risky partners. I actually did quite well with this guy Joe, with whom I did not have sex due to lack of protection, because he is very safe to me. He is a former colleague and we have been emailing back and forth for years, and he is clearly non-abusive, gentle, nice, etc. I am not super attracted to him - that is another thing. But I did well with him in terms of getting an (almost
) partner who is not an asshole, so I want to give myself credit for making progress in that department. If I keep making progress like this, maybe by age 80 I will be with the right guy!
