How to avoid falling for a nightstand

Intrigued by the idea of having a one-night stand? You might want to play safe, by going into the whole thing with the mindset of just having fun without getting great sex and raging emotions all mixed up.

Here are some preventive measures that might help you keep your one-night stand a casual one-time affair and not a long-term thingee overnight.

It’s not the best way to get hooked 

If you want a long-term relationship then getting involved with your hookup for the night might not be the best way to go about it. Consider dating if you’re aiming for love and butterflies, but if it’s casual sex you want, then a one-night stand it is

Keep things light and simple

Flirt, laugh over drinks, dance to the music together, but don’t digress to serious talks like getting to know each other better. It’s a one-time thing so get it out of your head that you’d have future interactions with each other.

Don’t exchange contact

No giving out contact information and yes, no spending the night together in each other’s arms; that’s a whole lot of intimacy in a casual lay. If you happen to have any extra feel for that person aside from the thrill of the night ahead, then skip the one night stand experience so you don’t have to deal with the aftermath of those feelings later on.
