FriendFinder-X puts a more playful spin on traditional hookup sites

Rather than pure nudity, you’ll find skin plus humour, along with likely the widest, most diverse collection of members. The site is inherently uplifting, and has a refreshingly fun-loving, down-to-earth vibe. Members are clearly there to enjoy themselves, emotions don’t cloud the waters, and you really feel like an equal the moment you log on. If you’re in need of something completely drama-free, this is the place to start.

Get It On

To browse sexual classifieds in a safe, spam-free environment, head straight over to GetItON. The hookup site bypasses the Facebook-type social network layout seen on competitor sites and instead focuses on actually matching you with other casual sex seekers. The site lets you easily showcase your preferences, from lifestyle to sexuality, in a controlled, transparent manner. And in case you’re a little uncertain of what you want, sexual preferences are gathered via a short survey, that allows you to rank sexual activities on a scale ranging from hard no’s to must-haves.

3. Get Chatting

If you find communicating online the hardest part, you’re probably overthinking it. Seeing as you’re seeking an arrangement that is attachment-free, there’s no need to give too much thought or concern to the outcome of your chats, emails, winks, etc.

How you choose to communicate should really take up no more space than a single thought. If you’re attracted, simply act. Dating websites’ winks are flirty, but they just extend the length of the online communication stage and should be used only if you don’t have time to send a quick message. For the best results, simply send a message at the www.besthookupwebsites.org/escort/glendale-1 magic-number length of 2-3 sentences. For bonus points, sign your message with something that describes yourself, rather than your name for an easy way to casually start building up anticipation.

Then, most importantly, get offline as soon as possible. Do so by limiting your back and forth messages to 2-3 rounds and reserve the more suggestive, flirty lines to when you actually have her number.

4. Go “Dating”

Once you have her contact information, focus on arranging a rendezvous (or “date”). You don’t have to share your life story or sell yourself too much at this point. Simply show common courtesy, and focus on your goal: physical interaction.

When deciding where and when to meet, continue to keep it casual. Lock down a potential date to meet that’s sooner rather than later – as in, within the next few days – but don’t get stuck on the details. Best case scenario, you can arrange what to do and where to meet when the upcoming date arrives. The less you plan, the less the entire situation can be over-thought. Our tip: think of a few fun date ideas, but most of all, keep it light and fun.

The best casual encounters will always be those in which you can actually be yourself. To replicate that from an online meeting, try to go with the flow to eliminate any pressure, prejudgements, or consequences, and simply focus on enjoying your time with a like-minded partner.

Your profile is not your blog, so don’t tarnish it with unnecessary, or worse yet, negative information. Also, don’t get too serious, and don’t give too much away up front. Instead use your profile to evoke genuine interest in others. Once you’ve done so successfully, your profile does a lot of the initial flirting (or winking) for you.
