INSINCERE relationship situations

---

Look out for:
​ 
(this is not consent unless you talk about the arrangement and both agree to it wholeheartedly):

We are going out and doing stuff but we are not dating

I want you to be my friend but don't talk about how you feel or what you are going through, I just want you here for company, to listen to me talk, and to have sex

I don't want to know more about you or your experiences (this is not really a friend)

I want to go see other people and call you when I want to hang out with you

I want t stay at your house when I want to and have you cook for me, I want to use your stuff and take a shower at your house, but we are not in a relationship

Sleeping around and calling it "polyamory"

If one wants to be part of a healthy polyamorous relationship they need to be aware of the dynamics of the people involved.

"Sleeping" with someone (having sex) exposes you to all their STIs

"Sleeping" with someone who sleeps with someone else exposes you the all the STIs of them and all the people that they have "slept" with

Hurting you and then seeing if it is ok... saying that they are just trying BDSM (talking to you beforehand and getting an affirmative yes is essential)
