What is your honest opinion about random hook ups?

If you're for it or don't really care, how would one find or get hook ups? I keep tossing this idea around and still unsure about it. I know there's apps but I don't feel like paying $15 a week for possibility.

  • Yea, if you're not looking to be in a relationship at the moment, but you are missing and needing some physical contact with a person or people, then random hook ups are often the best choice.

    If you have any friends who might serve as a friends with benefits situation, then I'd definitely explore that too. I've had both, and each did well for what I needed from each type. I hooked up with a couple of my friends on and off for a few years, and that was useful since I might not want to continually go out and find someone each time I craved some form of physical and sexual closeness.

    On the other hand, there were times when I didn't really have the friend or familiar hookup option, and especially when I began exploring more of my sexuality, I didn't feel comfortable trying to get my guy friends to also want to explore ourselves. In those situations, I totally relied on random, but carefully chosen, hookups. Sometimes I'd be at a party, not really even focused on finding someone to hookup with, when I'd be approached by someone interested in hooking up with me or asking for a friend of theirs if I might be interested. That actually happened several times, and it was nice when the other person's friend basically did all the work, even telling me things about their fiend, my future hookup that would appeal to me, like, 'she loves giving blowjobs and she'll for sure give you one tonight.' Of course, getting in her car later on, making out, then as getting a semi-blank stare when I ask if she'd prefer giving me head in the car or at my place. LOL

    • Thank you. That is very informative. I would think of any friend that might want to fulfill the need but I don't know many single women. Lol

  • Apparently it’s easy, girls are as lonely as guys if not more so at times and the internet makes it like door dash. I was never into it after like 23 and didn’t have those apps. I was just getting drunk and hooking up. But now I would probably never do that unless I was really hammered. It’s too dangerous in my mind. Too much to lose at this point. Health, finances, pride maybe but alcohol makes people do crazy things.

  • It all depends on your personal outlook on things. I've had hookups in college and to be be fair it wasn't like it was unheard of in that environment.

    It ultimately gets the job done which is takes care physically of urges and needs.

    There are good experiences and bad experiences just like in anything else.

    • Thank you. It's good to hear of personal experience.

    • No worries. Happy to help

  • I think its cheap. I think people who hookup are impatient and dont want to put effort into commitment or a relationship so they settle for the quickest lay. I think its dangerous and risky especially in terms of STDs. I think a majority of people will continue to settle for hookups out of impatience and desperation

    • That's my main reason of why I haven't even tried. Lol. Yet at times my mind goes there. Honestly I searched apps, but never opened one. I keep saying to wait until I'm officially thinking I'm ready for a relationship again.

    • If you’re gonna give in, at least both get tested first and not fck anyone else that same week

    • That's a smart idea.

  • Im confused because im a virgin but really attracted to this guy, willing to let him take it. But i feel like due to the lack of experience that I will get too attached to random hookups so may not be for me

  • I'm neutral towards it. I've done it. Sometimes you just need to feel physical touch in that manner and then move on. Sometimes it's what you need after a bad breakup.

    I see it like this: if you feel you need a pick-me-up and you're not hurting anyone for it, do it. If the very idea turns you off, then don't do it. Simple

  • if i hook up with someone it's someone i know irl and not from an app

    • So more of a friend?

  • I would never do it.. but its not my place to judge other people. As long as the people involved are legal age and agree to it then I dont care.

  • If it works for both people, go for it. Some people are against them. I respect that. But their few shouldn't dictate what all men and women do with each other.

  • I think women should have an active sexual relationship with as many men as they w.

  • It ruins people's ability to pair bond and often leads to them having many failed relationships in life because they can never become very emotionally attached to someone and can't truly be in love with someone.

  • Not for me. Too casual.

  • I have to at least like the guy first, so random is unlikely to work for me.

    • Makes sense. Sounds more like friends with benefits.

  • I agree with them

  • Waste of time and energy.

  • I wouldn't do it with just a girl i met out of nowhere, BUT, if a girl i knew for a long time, wanted to hook up, and or do it more and more, I'd at least consider it

  • They're not for everyone

  • Not my thing. Potentially disgusting as most people aren’t clean.

  • It's okay, sometimes you just need sex and only just sex.

    It's fairly healthy as well for men as it will improve well being and satisfy some needs.
