Here’s some background info. Everyone I’m mentioning is a junior in high school (16-17 years old). I’ve known them since middle school, some even longer. The guy I’m going to talk about dated a girl in the group for three years, they broke up recently.
So right after that guy and girl broke up, he seemed kind of shaken up about it but she was already moving on to the guy she’d been lusting after for a while. The guy started turning to other girls in the friend group for affection and flings and all that. They all knew they were rebounds and nothing serious but it was a mutual understanding that everyone was just kinda having fun. He texted me recently and we chatted for a while. I saw him the next day and when we talked, it got pretty suggestive, and when we texted later he said (presented in a joking way, but I know he’s serious) that he wants to have sex with me, or whatever I was comfortable with (that part was nice). I don’t want to actually have sex, but I’m totally considering taking him up on just a casual little second-base thing sometime. I don’t have romantic feelings for him, but I think I’d enjoy it anyway, we’re both kind of the “whatever” type who would do this sort of thing just for fun. I’m debating whether I want to do it. I don’t think I’d regret it, and I’d kind of like the practice for a future relationship, if that makes sense. I think mostly what’s stopping me is how my friends would react, but I don’t really plan on telling them, and I guess if they’re real friends then they’ll respect my decisions.
I’ll just clarify this a little that neither of us wants to date, per se, it’d just be a casual hookup kinda thing. And you’re right, DuctTape, I really have nothing to lose and I get what’s going on so I might as well just go for it!
