Quick background, I'm in college and got out of a 2-year relationship last December. I broke it off and have no feelings for her or desire to get back together. 

I've been on a dry spell ever since though and I want to hook up with someone to channel some of the pent up sexual energy. I can't seem to do it though because every time the opportunity presents itself I end up approaching the situation like I was trying to get this girl to date me. I end up always ending up just flirting because I can't seem to decouple wanting to date someone and wanting to hook up with them and the methods by which I approach both.

Has anyone else experienced or overcome this? Any help would be appreciated.

I got out of a relationship and can't seem to decouple the idea of hooking up and dating.

I have no desire to date, but can't seem to hook up without developing feelings.
