Have You Ever Had a One-Night Stand?
The infamous one-night stand takes the concept of casual sex to the extreme. There are serious risks to consider when having sex with someone you don't know too well, like STIs and regret, but there can be something exciting and enjoyable about no-strings-attached sex.
Since even a serial monogamist might have had a one-night stand once in her life, I'm curious — have you?
Group Therapy: I Left Jewelry at the House of a One Night Stand!
A couple of months ago I had a one night stand with an older bachelor. It was after a crazy night of drinking and when I woke up, all I wanted to do was get out of his disgusting apartment as quickly as possible. I couldn't find the ring I was wearing and mentioned it to him, but left without it.
Group Therapy: Was This a One-Night Stand?
I recently went to a bar to celebrate a co-worker's birthday. While I was there, I met someone unaffiliated with work. We spoke all night over drinks and then before the bar closed, he kissed me and then proposed three options: one) his place, two) my place, and three) dinner sometime next week.
Love It or Leave It: The Overnighter Set
If you're single and dating, being prepared for the unexpected is key, which is why the Hanky Panky Justine Case Overnighter Set ($38) could come in quite handy. It comes complete with lacy black thong and a Benefit cosmetics kit that includes foundation, lip shine, eye cream, and cheek stain — you know, so you can look your best at all times!
Is this something you'd carry with you for those impromptu one night stands, or is this a total waste of money and space in your purse?
Dear Poll: Have You Ever Actually Had a One-Night Stand?
One-night stands are tricky territory, especially when considering STIs. There are some who truly do enjoy a casual sex encounter, but for many, keeping sex casual is extremely difficult. I know both men and women who had greater expectations from hookupz than just a one-night stand, which left them feeling disappointed and dissatisfied.
Do Tell: Do STI Rates Make You Reconsider One Night Stands?
Although most of you say you've never had a one night stand, 48 percent of you admitted to doing it at least once. Sure, one night stands have a negative stigma attached to them, but if you're safe and smart about it, I say to each her own. But as we all know, STIs are on the rise and condoms won't necessarily protect you 100 percent.
Dear Poll: Have You Ever Had a Wedding Hookup?
For single guys and gals, weddings have a reputation for matchmaking — even if that match is sometimes for just one night. After all, you're surrounded by friends, love is in the air, and booze and bad dancing are plentiful. It's no wonder that for some wedding guests, the night ends with a little bit of making out or hooking up with a fellow wedding goer.
You Asked: One Night Stand
Dear Sugar,
I recently had a one night stand for the first time. I met him while interviewing roommates for my new apartment. It didn't work out as roomies, but he invited me to a friend's party a few weeks after our initial meeting.
Women Aren't Into Casual Sex?
Many men have an ability to be spontaneous when it comes to sex. They're free of their emotions and can have one-night stands without even so much as batting an eye. Ever since the sexual revolution of the sixties, women have tried to do the same, but according to an article in Science Daily, new research published by the journal Human Nature indicates that women's negative emotions get in the way of a satisfying casual-sex encounter.
You Asked: Is It Too Late to Be Friends?
Dear Sugar,
I could really use some advice. I met this cute guy in one of my classes first semester of law school. We hung out for the first time a couple of weeks ago and had sex.
