The world of online dating can be very rewarding since it has given our generation the means to find casual sex hook ups online with no strings attached, but with the good unfortunately comes the bad. Hooking up online is not a fool proof game and it needs to be played with a bit of caution. If you play safe and follow a few simple rules you will have all the fun you want, and trust me its a lot of fun.

Don’t Hook Up With Your Friends

This rule should be quite obvious but Im gonna stress the point of how important this is. Hooking up with friends might seem like a good idea when you’re in the mood but the fact that you have a history with a person and you’re comfortable with them dosent mean its a good idea, quite the opposite actually. With the internet providing a great place to find a partner for a no strings attached sex hook up why would you need to take the risk and potentially ruin a friendship by complicating the relationship with sex.

Don’t Get Too Drunk Before Hooking Up

While booze and sexual hookups go together like spaghetti and meatballs or peanut butter and jam, like  with anything to much of something is always a bad thing. If its your first time participating in a casual sex hook up then a few drinks is probably a good idea, but to many drinks is a bad idea since hopefully you’re in for an experience that hopefully you will want to remember. If you end up drinking to much you dont want to trust that the person your meeting up with is gonna have your best interest in mind and not leave you sleeping on a park bench in central park. So have enough to get a bit of liquid courage but not so much that you’re going to end up going home with what you came with, nothing!

Safety First!

This should go with out saying but if you didn’t come prepared with a condom, then dont be an idiot and go get one. The beauty of a casual sex hook up is that when its over, its over. The last thing you want is a constant burning reminder of a poor decision you made in the heat of the moment, especially if you’re going to have to live with that for the rest of your life. This will also greatly complicate your future endeavors with hooking up online since you now have a metaphorical monkey on your back and you dont want to ruin all your opportunities for a good time as soon as you start hooking up.

Don’t Give More Info Then Is Necessary

There is always a bit of risk when it comes to hooking up with girls online, which does adds to the excitement of the experience. But there are some things you should keep to yourself just incase the person you’re hooking up with comes down with a case of the crazies and will use that info to make your life complicated. For example, dont mention where you work, the last thing you want is for a girl you hooked up with once to show up at your place of employment and ruin your professional reputation with one quick gesture of insanity. Also, Don’t be too quick to bring the person to where you live. I’ve made it a rule of mine to try and end up back at the other persons house since your address is a pretty big piece of information to give to someone your hoping to not have any real relationship with. that is also a piece of information they could do a lot of damage with if for some reason they had the prerogative to do so. Just keep your conversation vague and try to keep a lure of mystery about you, it worked for Don Draper.

Don’t Fall In Love

They say you don’t pick who you fall in love with, but do you really expect to find the person your gonna spend the rest of your days with on a sex hook up date. Odds are the person you’re hooking up with is not interested in anything serious. If they were they would probably be using a more mainstream dating site to find a casual date and build a relationship with and not on a site with the word sex being predominately features like SexSearch.com or SocialSex.com. If you were to profess your love to this person for some reason, then your odds of getting a positive response are slim to none and you’ll certainly scare them off and ruin any chance of hooking up casually with this person again in the future.

Don’t Get Addicted

I’ve been told many time in my life if you have too much of a good thing, something pleasant becomes unpleasant because you have too much of it. Now while most of you are thinking that theres no way you can have to much sex, I think it is possible. If you take away the chase then the reward is no longer as valuable. The fun of hooking up with someone is the anticipation of the act, its like having sex without foreplay. A lot of men I know might find no issue with that. I know there’s not one woman who would agreed, so take that into consideration fellas.

Hooking up online can be exciting and rewarding, if you play the game with a bit of caution. The small amount of risk involved adds to the experience by making you feel a bit dangerous, everyman must admit that he’s wanted to be James Bond at least once in his life, but even James Bond took precautions incase he found himself in a hairy situation. So make sure to play safe and have all your bases covered and have fun.
