When it comes to casual sex, very clear and firm lines need to be drawn in the sand, and they need to remain there. There are not loopholes where casual sex is concerned, once you've crossed certain lines, you're no longer in the same realm, and you're moving into uncharted territory with someone that you may or may not wish to move that way with. There are several unwritten rules of casual sex, and SexSearch has got them all for you to take a look at, right here. What are these unwritten rules, anyhow? Well, you should stick to other single people, respect the person you're sleeping with, ask and answer the appropriate questions, keep it casual, avoid feelings, be yourself, stick to the boundaries, expect nothing, limit the amount of time you spend together, and be prepared for the fact that this is going to end at some point. If you're comfortable with all of that, then you're ready to keep reading.

Okay, maybe you're not looking for anything serious but that does not, by any means, give you carte blanche to behave in any kind of a way that could have a negative impact on the relationship of someone else. Be respectful of others as you embark on your no strings attached adventure, and stick to the candidates who are actually single. There's no reason to go after someone who is taken, and especially no reason to go after someone who is married and has a family. This should always be an unwritten rule of casual sex, and should apply to everyone. It's great to get out there and have a good time with no additional expectations. It's not necessary at all to do so at the expense of anyone else. So, having said this, we can move on and get into the rest of the unwritten rules of casual sex.

Of course you should respect the person that you're having casual sex with. You should like each other at the very least if you're going to be intimate, but that's really where it should end if it's going to continue to be casual sex, otherwise, you're moving towards something else, and you have a whole other load of things to consider. As mentioned, there are some very firm lines that need to be drawn in the sand where casual sex is concerned, and if you and your casual sex partner are both aware of what these lines are, and you both have genuine respect for each other, then there should be no issues with staying inside of the lines. The mutual respect that you have for one another should be the grounds enough for you to both follow the rules and from there, here are some more rules for having casual sex.

Yes, you will need to ask some potentially uncomfortable questions, and no, you shouldn't avoid doing so under any circumstances. It's incredibly important that you find out important things about your partner before deciding to get involved sexually, like; have you been tested, what exactly are you looking to see come out of this. Are you seeing other people? Are you okay if I do? Are you really cool with keeping this as simple as possible and will you be able to walk away when the time comes? Now, in return for the answers to these questions, you should be prepared to answer each of these questions for your potential partner as well. It's only fair, and chances are that they'd really like to know all of these answers as well. Once you've both asked and answered these questions for one another, if you're both on the same page, then you're ready to get busy and start having some fun.

Is your fling busy tonight? Then don't worry about it. You should never be too worried about what someone you're having casual sex with is up to, because at the end of the day, it's not any of your business. What you're doing is none of their business, either. Casual sex is meant to be kept as just that. Casual. It's like a sophisticated booty call, really. One where you don't have to be loser drunk on a Saturday night to initiate. It's one where you can be leaving work after a rough day and call someone up. You available? Cool. No one thinks it's weird that you called, or tries to read into the fact that you're busy. When you can get together at those times, it's a great physical release from whatever was kicking your butt at work that day. It's essentially meant to be a way for you to enjoy all of the physical benefits that go along with sex, without having to attach feelings to the deed. This is one of the unspoken rules of casual sex, for sure. It's meant to be kept casual, it's meant to be kept simple, light and airy. It's almost like a tool for stress relief or frustration relief. It's meant to be used as a way to release tension or have fun and it's never meant to be taken further than that. If it has been taken further then that, then that means someone has caught feelings. Which brings us to the next point.

This isn't the place for intimacy, sharing feelings, or expecting to be counselled at length because of how crappy your work week just was. Maybe that sounds harsh, but the minute you start introducing feelings into the mix, then you're no longer having casual sex, and you should strongly consider whether or not you think it's a good idea to stay in this situation. You're not supposed to be catching feelings with someone that you're having casual sex with. That's one of the unspoken rules of any casual sex agreement. Casual sex is two people who get together and have sex. They respect each other and are respectful of one another, but there are are no additional feelings involved, and there's nothing more to look forward to. Casual sex is meant to be an outlet that's a safe place to enjoy having sex without any of the complications that come along with having feelings or being in a relationship. If you've agreed on casual sex and things have moved into a territory where there are feelings involved, then it's time to either re-evaluate what you're both looking for, or move on. Both can't happen.

There are few circumstances where it's ever a good idea to do anything but, however when it comes to casual sex, even though the expectations of one another are far lower, you don't have to prove you're an emotional badass just because you're able to do this. It doesn't make you any more of a champ than the next male or female that your partner may have been with. this is supposed to be a breezy and cool situation, so keep it breezy and cool. Have a some fun with it, but don't take it too far out of hand, and don't behave like an ass. No matter what the situation is, you should still be treating your partner with respect, and if you feel the urge to make comparisons between yourself and anyone else that they may have had any kind of relationship with in the past or present, don't walk - RUN from that urge and move on as quickly as possible. You have nothing to prove here, so leave your ego at the door, and have a good time.

Sometimes we might think that there are exceptions to every rule, and that this also applies to casual sex. It really doesn't, though. As a matter of fact, casual sex is something that it probably applies to the least. It's great to have that connection and mutual respect happening with someone, and to experience pleasure, but don't let that cloud the rest of your judgement. Being lax on one detail leads to a lot of other exceptions being made along the way, and before you know it, you're headed in a completely different direction that you never intended to head in. Keep those lines in the sand clear, and make sure that you're sticking to them. When it comes to strict casual sex, there is no need to deviate from the plan. Stay inside of the lines, where it's safe. Deviating from the boundaries of casual sex never worked out well for anyone who wasn't looking to end up in a relationship.

It can never be said enough that having any kind of expectations when you walk into a casual sex relationship is simply a no-no. There is no reason on earth why you should be having expectations of any kind, or why you should expect anything from a person who has made it clear to you that they are not looking for a commitment. This is one of those things that you really need to remember, because in real life, you are not going to convince a person who's not interested in being with you on a full-time basis that they should be, by banging them. Be realistic, and if you've got actual feelings for the person that you're thinking about getting involved with, then you need to take a pass on this one. Move on, and do not get involved because there only two outcomes that are going to result from this - you are going to get hurt, and they are going to stop talking to you. The casual sex line is not the place to be shopping for a long-term relationship.

No matter how much fun the two of you may be having, it's definitely possible to have far too much of a good thing, so keep the amount of time you're spending together down to a healthy minimum. It's really for the best at the end of the day, it helps to maintain the premise of the the casual sex agreement, and in all honesty, a little bit of hot anticipation never hurt anyone. Make the time you do spend together as good as you can, keep the visits down to a reasonable amount, and you're sure to have little to no problems. You'll be able to keep living your normal, day to day life, and at the same time, you'll be able to enjoy the hot times you spend together with your casual sex partner. It's a win-win situation for both, and it also helps get you geared up to deal with the inevitable.

Even if it's not going to be going any further than this, it's important to make the most out of it and enjoy it. It's also important to remember that all good things must come to an end, including your time with this person. No one knows how your feelings may or may not change over the course of the time you spend with this person, but if you're following the unspoken rules of casual sex, then unless you've managed to develop some serious feelings for this person for the right reasons, you'll be ready to walk away and head off in your own direction when the time comes. Which, of course, is only a matter of time. It's never easy to walk away from anything, but be cool, move on, and look back on your time with this person as a fond memory. Nothing wrong with that.
