When most people think about having a fuck buddy they generally think about fleeting hook ups that have no staying power. This may be true for many people, but many others have medium-term relationships with their fuck buddies. If you find yourself in this situation you may be wondering the best way to approach it. You want to do things with the other person, but you also don’t want to deviate from the fuck buddy agreement – that this is a no strings attached relationship. So what can you do? Here are my top tips for when you have a regular fuck buddy.
Be honest about the nature of the relationship
When you first hook up it is obvious to both parties that you are just hooking up. There is no expectation of anything more and that is how things stay for a while. As times change feelings can change and unless you manage this expectation it can take you both to a place that neither of you want to be. The best way to manage this is by being honest about it. Have a conversation about how you feel. Check in with your fuck buddy to reassure her/him that you still are treating this as a no strings relationship and that you continue to have no expectation of anything outside of that. This is the best way to keep things on track.
Focus on the sex
Remember why you got into the relationship in the first place, you did so for the sex and nothing more. By keeping that in mind it can keep you on track. Remember also that the other person agreed to this, so by sticking to it you are honouring the agreement. The best way to make sure that this is the case is to make sure that whenever you meet up you have sex. If you start meeting a lot and not having sex it sends the wrong message, so avoid this at all costs. I am not saying that you cannot do other things, but doing too many of those things sans sex will quickly alter the agreement between the two of you which can end in disaster.
Sleep with someone else
The ultimate way to ensure that things remain in the fuck buddy zone is to sleep with someone else. This is more likely to keep your fuck buddy interested as it shows that you are attractive to other people, and it also reminds you both that this is an open relationship. If they are not okay with you sleeping with someone else it means they have already moved outside of the agreement.
So those are my top three tips! Remember the golden rule: have fun!
