Sleeping with Other People (2015) (original) (raw)
Years after impulsively losing their virginity to each other in college, Lainey and Jake meet at a support group in New York ("What�s a nice girl like you doing at a sex addicts meeting?"). A spark resurfaces, but they�ve walked this road before. Abject failures in romance who lead lives of serial infidelity and self-sabotage, they agree to a platonic friendship to mutually support their recovery�and what�s more supportive than teaching your friend proper self-stimulation? Can love bloom while you're sleeping with other people?
