Sex Tiebreaker?

In the new movie "This Means War" starring the always lovely Reese Witherspoon, a woman is torn between two ridiculously hot men. While this doesn't happen to all of us everyday, I know quite a few gals who have been dating a couple guys at the same time and didn't want to choose, but felt weird about dating them both seriously. (especially when they had no clue the other one existed) Back in my single days, I definitely was in this predicament. Two great (sort of ) guys who make you laugh and make you want to rip their clothes off. It's hard to pick when you honestly have feelings for two people simultaneously. I don't know if you can be in love with two people at the same time, but I do know you can definitely be in lust, that's for sure. In the rom-com Reese decides to break the tie between her two men by having a "sex tie-breaker." I think this is hilarious and wonder if other girls out there have done this- chosen between two men by who's better in bed. Before you judge, this isn't a totally superficial way to pick a partner. Sexual chemistry is very important. You just have to have other stuff in common as well. In my opinion, you can learn to like football and Jack Johnson, but you can't easily fix mismatched sexual chemistry. You either have it or you don't. So forget about going with the guy who's the "right choice." Go with the one that at the end of the day, you want to spend the night AND the next morning with. The combination of having amazing sex and still wanting to share your Cheerios together the next morning is what makes a relationship work for more than just the first 6 months when neither of you leave the bedroom unless it's to shower or get more Gatorade. I'm just saying, sex tiebreakers might not be so bad after all. Because once you sleep with someone, you start to think about all the good (if it's good) reasons to be with them, or the bad (if it's bad) reasons to leave.
