Being new into the puberty years, people are always looking for casual relationships to help them satisfy their needs. However, most of them get them wrong, and the persons involved are often not on the same page. This results in quite unnecessary drama being created, and you can run into a lot of problems. 

So, first off, you need to know what casual dating is. It’s essentially dating without the intention of marrying the other person. However, there are some other things you need to know to keep your experience good. Let’s see. 

1. Make Sure Everyone Knows The Score 

For avoiding to run into any disagreements at a later point in your relationship, make sure that both of you are on the same page since the very start of the relationship. Keep both of you properly involved in what you guys what in between you. Let your intentions be crystal clear, so the other person might not develop any expectations. 

2. Never Compromise Over Your Respect 

Even if it’s just a temporary thing, casual dating still involved two people being in a relationship. And whenever you are in a relationship, you need to have an element of respect between you two. You should be treated the same way as if you were another human being and not anything below that. The same applies to you treating the other person as well. 

3. Don’t Overwhelm Yourself 

This essentially means that since you’re not looking to get involved in a very serious relationship where you have to make commitments, you can get involved in more than one relationship at a single time, however you please. However, make sure not to overcrowd yourself as at the end of the day, you bring along the baggage of the person you’re spending time around with. 

4. Don’t Ever Be Possessive 

Just as we discussed the last point, keep in mind that this applies to the other person as well. He or she can also be involved in other relationships just as you can be. So, never try to be possessive about the person or let the other person feel it for you. If you feel so, it might be time to shut it down real quick as this is a no-go when it comes to casual dating. 

5. Play With Your Rules 

The main aim of casual dating is to have fun while you’re in it. While regular relationships require you to invest much time, care for the other, and be able to compromise, nothing that sort applies to a casual relationship. Hence you’re free to do anything and not feel bound by anything. 

6. Be Able To End It Maturely 

Just as you knew exactly what you were getting into when you started the relationship in the first place, you should also be very clear that it would have to be ended whenever on of your two wants to. While it could be you to decide that, but it could also be your partner. So be ready if the other person does it, and manage it like a grownup, as it was always supposed to come to an end.
