If you’re just getting out of a relationship, there are a lot of things you’re going to have to adjust to. Depending on how long said relationship lasted you might have to go through a longer adjustment period than you would have had to otherwise. It’s common for men and women alike to decide to go on the rebound after a breakup, but sometimes this ends in disaster. There’s nothing wrong with wanting to score some hookups to get you feeling better about yourself, but if you’ve been out of the game for a while it’s going to be a little tough to get right back into it. Fortunately for you, this is an adjustment that’s pretty easy to make as long as you know what to expect.
Only One Expectation
If you’re recently out of a serious relationship, you’ll be used to thinking about a ton of expectations when it comes to the other sex. This isn’t the case anymore, particularly if you’re just looking to shack up. There’s only one expectation you need to worry about and that’s the mutual expectation that both you and the lady you end up going home with are going to put out. Every other kind of expectation belongs to committed dating, which isn’t your concern any more. This means you can relax and stop worrying about what your hookup date is going to expect you to do, because the only thing she’s going to expect is the only thing you’re going to feel like doing.
More than One Partner
The other awesome part about hookup dating is that you’re not restricted to seeing one person. You can see as many ladies as you want, provided they’re equally as interested in you. Now, this doesn’t mean that as soon as you’re on the market they’re going to be lining up to try and get into your pants, because chances are pretty good that that’s not going to happen. It does mean that if you’re fortunate enough to find more than one woman who’s interested in hooking up with you that you can do them all without having to feel guilty. Yeah, it’ll be easier to juggle multiple hookups than it will multiple girlfriends, but it can still end up being a mess if you’re not careful. Instead of going crazy and banging every woman you come across, limit it to two or three. You’ll still be living the dream but it won’t be out of control.
No Strings
The absolute best part of hookup dating is the fact that there are zero strings attached. The ladies you’re going to get together with are only going to be out for the same thing you’re interested in, and that’s sex. This can take a lot of pressure off you and make it far more enjoyable. No strings attached in your hookups means you can just take some time to chill and enjoy being a single man. Just be aware, however, that if you start hooking up with the same woman over and over, emotions might come into play. If that happens you’re going to be running the risk of commitment, which is what you want to avoid.
