Does sex ever stop feeling like a dirty nasty thing?

With the right person who is understanding, yes. Hang in there

In my experience, it takes a long time.

Try to take things very slowly when you do find the right person for you. There may be times when you have to stop, or you dissociate (done that countless times) and then feel super-guilty afterwards.

Yes it does get better and yes it does stop because you when this happens it's because your self-esteem goes up and when your self esteem goes higher, seeing yourself in a higher light helps you eventually be able to put all of these feelings of doubt of gettting better and you continue to heal and it does get better.

Yes and I do believes it does Stop!

Peace, Crew

It won't if you are doing it for the wrong reasons. If you love the person and they make you happy and your doing it because its what you want, and it will make you happy (as well as the other person, they can say no or yes too).

My ex would push me into doing things I did not want to, and it would all feel wrong, and it felt gross and like I wanted to cry or throw up, and I would hate when ever he touched me, whether it being from him try to hug me or hold my hand, to sex it all felt wrong, and it never felt comfortable.
