Casual dating has opened the doors for playful daters to have fun, and sexually experiment with other singles.
Everyday there are more, and more people who embrace this adventurous lifestyle where the main ground rule is to not fall in love for your occasional lover.
Very often attraction leads to something that goes beyond a physical relationship, and some people end up having feelings for his/her sex partner.
In fact, a recent study by the dating site Match.com revealed that single men are three times more likely to use a one-night stand as an excuse to start a new relationship.
Does this mean that by getting involved in a casual relationship, you cannot let your emotions flow? Is not casual dating about experimenting at all?
Hooking up with strangers, the perfect excuse to experiment with your emotions
There is a distinction between emotions, and feelings. Hook-ups precisely are about immersing yourself in the pleasures of flesh at different levels, and this implies to travel to a place where you positively play with emotions.
In a romantic relationship, what people expect is to create a meaningful connection; in a casual one, singles seek to connecting at a physical level, to experiment with their five senses.
Being compatible with your temporary lover is a must, even that either of you expect to go further in the relationship.
In fact, according to the Match.com study, millennial singles are 48% more likely to head the sheets with someone right away to see if there is a clear connection.
This is why not everybody is meant to be part of a casual relationship, even that some believe they are ready to have casual sex with someone they do not know, just because they can innocent flirt with him/her.
The only thing you have to say to yourself before getting in bed with a stranger is that your purpose is to explore sex with all yours senses, but never let your feelings get in the middle!
