I don’t like casual dating. I tried it for a while and it didn’t really take with me. To me, there is nothing casual about sex, intimacy, and sharing yourself with another person. I also felt like…what’s the point? So I have several people to have lunch and go to the movies with, who I don’t know that well, but we get to have sex after? I mean, I’d much rather go to lunch with my long-time friends who I have a lot to talk about with, and use my vibrator at the end of the day. What is a “casual” relationship? It’s not quite a relationship but it’s not quite a friendship. If you ask me, it’s the worst of both worlds. I’m someone who likes to be all in and if I can’t be, I’m all out. For the record, I have been fine with being alone. I was single for a long time. If you struggle to be alone, I think you should learn to do that rather than fill the void with casual dating. That’s just my opinion. Here is why I hated casual dating.
I wear my heart on my sleeve
If I like someone, I say it. If someone does something I find endearing, lovable, adorable, or sexy, I say it. I don’t like to filter myself. If I want to compliment someone or tell them how I’m feeling, that’s what I want to do—even if it “is too early” for something like that.
