Thanks to No Strings Attached Ireland, finding sexy partners for nsa dating and no strings attached hookups is easy and straightforward. However, finding a potential partner is only half the battle. Is it realistic to expect to be able to maintain a relationship, or relationships, that is based purely on sex and doesn’t involve commitment, exclusiveness or romance? Well the good news is that is most definitely is.

Unfortunately, a lot of no strings arrangements don’t last very long as feeling or emotions on one side intervene or there are no defined boundaries agreed and one party can have different expectations than their partner. However, the good news is that you can inject some longevity into your nsa relationships by following some of rules for nsa dating:

1. Respect your NSA Partner – like any form of relationship mutual respect is required. Although, romance or commitment may not be required this does not excuse any form of manipulation, rudeness, cruelty, etc. Treat your partner or potential partner as you would like to be treated and be respectful. On the other hand if someone is not treating you with the respect you deserve then do not tolerate it – there are plenty of potential partners available to you and life is too short for dealing with jerks / bitches.
2. Be Honest and Clear – Always be honest about your nsa expectations and desires and have a clear and precise discussion about what you both expect, what is / isn’t acceptable, boundaries etc. It is best to discuss this at the start of the nsa relationship and discuss it often to ensure you are both still on the same pages and both are getting what they want.
3. Have Lots of Fun – the main reason for an nsa relationship is lot and lots of fun. Don’t forget it. You do not have to worry about commitment, romance, long-term planning etc. Focus on having fun and getting the most pleasure from the NSA relationship.  Enjoy it for what it is.
4. Always Play Safe – Given the nature of the relationship safe sex is a must. Always take personal responsibility for your own protection and never compromise – an unwanted pregnancy or an STI is the last outcome anyone wants from an NSA relationship.
5. Be Careful of Getting Emotionally Involved – Typically speaking no strings dating and emotions don’t mix well. You shouldn’t get involved in an nsa relationship with someone you already have feelings for and if you are in an nsa relationship and start developing feelings for your partner then you need to tread very carefully. While a regular relationship can develop out of an nsa relationship, it will only ever work where there are mutual feelings. If feeling develop on one side only it can spell disaster for the nsa relationship or indeed any type of relationship between the two.

By taking the above rules on board you can ensure your nsa relationship is fun for all involved and does not run its course before you wish it to. Above all else, always use your intuition and gut instinct or for further information you can read “the most common problems that will ruin you nsa relationship” or if you already find the fun has gone from your nsa relationship “when to call time on your nsa relationship”.
