I´ve read several where Jack sleeps with other people, but never Ennis. I guess this is logical in regard to canon, but it would be...different (good or bad different I don´t know) to read about Ennis trying it out and interesting to read about how that would impact him.
I´ve read a story (I think it was Divergent Dreams) where Ennis makes out with a man he´s met in a bar, but he is clearly drunk and upset and breaks it off before it goes any further.

Well, at last I found a story that has Ennis sleeping with another man besides Jack (but it´s one of those hush hush stories, so I won´t mention the title). It was interesting to read, but very emotional for me. I don´t think I wanna read about that again. Once is enough. :(

A hush-hush story? No such thing on this forum, Buffy. We don't have any restrictions on what stories can be discussed here.
And in original answer to your question, there are a number of stories that feature Ennis having a relationship with another man, almost all of them are stories that go past the original ending, i.e. after Jack's death.
My series of stories now called Greenlea Tales
Marge_Innavera's story "A Gift of Exile"
Tom Forster's "Ennis, A Sequel"
those are three off the top of my head.

Sienata's "The Ranch Hand".
But the story's unfinished and likely to remain so. In fact, I think Sienna ran out of steam partly or completely from describing the fic's Ennis doing the deed with someone else than Jack.
A pity, because I liked the gritty, tough and unromantic tone and premise, and would have liked to see her take the story further to where its harsh and emotionally closed-off Ennis discovers there's not just the need to have casual sex now and then with other guys - but there's actually becoming emotionally invested and falling in love with another man.

ok, good to know. I used to post on DC and they have a lot of rules about what fics to discuss or not. The fic I read was called "Green Eyes" and has Ennis sleeping with another man. There were no emotions involved though, only sex. I think a reason I didn´t like it was that it felt so out of character. If I´m gonna be able to read about Ennis in bed with someone other than Jack, I really need a long build-up before it happens.
I rarely read post-Jack stories, so I guess that´s why I haven´t encountered it before. Makes sense that it happens in stories that deals with Ennis after Jack´s death, though.

Now that you mention it....I think I´ve actually have read that fic. He got the hots for Jack but goes off to meet other men to blow of the steam.
I didn´t remember that fic at all until now, thanks for pointing it out.
