5 Unexpected Benefits Of Having A Fuckbuddy

Fuckbuddies.

When you hear this word, what comes to mind? Growing up in a society that values traditional relationships and believes that you should only be having sex inside one, chances are they aren’t good things. Or at least you’re conflicted. But having a fuckbuddy at least once in your life can actually be beneficial to you. 

Here are five reasons you need to get a fuckbuddy right now and have a positive experience. 

  1. Gives You Time For Focusing On Yourself Whether you just got out of a long-term relationship, or want to take the time to focus on you and your goals, that doesn’t mean you also have to give up sex. You’re not limited to only having sex with people you’re in a relationship with, and having a designated fuckbuddy can be easier than hooking up with different people all the time. While that’s also okay, so long as you’re taking the necessary safety precautions, that could get tiresome for people. Not everyone wants to spend time thirsting over people and trying to hook up with everything in sight, and a fuckbuddy lets you have a reliable partner to have sex with while also giving you time to be with yourself. 

    A fuckbuddy relationship doesn’t involve any commitments or exclusivity, and you’re free to be your own person while also having someone nearby that you like and enjoy having sex with. Those two things don’t automatically equal a relationship, and you don’t have to date everyone you feel this way about since there are so many factors involved in a relationship. 

  2. Helps You Decide What You’re Looking For In Terms Of RelationshipsExperimenting with fuckbuddy relationships with different people can give you a glimpse of what’s out there, and what you’d like to avoid. Also, every person comes with their own set of dealbreakers, and the people you make your fuckbuddy can show you what yours are. Fuckbuddy relationships are especially beneficial for serial monogamers, or people who’ve only had a few relationships, but all were long-term. Seeing what works and what doesn’t in a casual relationship will only show you what you need for a long-term, serious relationship. 

  3. Prepares You For A New RelationshipJust as you deal with different fuckbuddies, you’re developing skills for your next relationship. Communication is just as important in a fuckbuddy relationship as a traditional one, and sometimes require more out of you than a regular relationship. You have to be self-disciplined if you don’t want to catch feelings for your fuckbuddy, and shows you how to give your partners healthy space

  4. It’s Sexually EmpoweringPerhaps you’ve steered away from casual sex and fuckbuddy relationships because of the societal perceptions surrounding it. Being able to control your sex life with someone you’re not in a monogamaus, traditional relationship with will bring you a new view of sexuality and offers the opportunity to get to know yourself better sexually. For instance, have you ever had a partner that wasn’t down for a kink of yours or never wanted to try new things in bed? Having a fuckbuddy can open up the door for exploration when it comes to sex, and you can end up 

  5. Can Be Implemented Into Your RelationshipFor some people, open or polyamorous relationships work better for them than being traditional and monogamous. An example of where having a fuckbuddy could be beneficial for two people in a relationship, known as each other’s primary partners, is in long-distance relationships. Everyone gets horny, and more so when your partner is far away from you and you haven’t been able to see them for a while. Instead of cheating or fighting the urge, you can both create a situation where fuckbuddies come into play. Obviously, this situation would vary from relationship to relationship, but with real, in-depth conversation, an arrangement could be made.
