So dating apps ....

Most of them give you an option that says “ looking for something casual “

What is your understanding of casual in terms of relationships ....

Not clothing

Jeans and a T-shirt replies will be unappreciated to all the comedians

To me it means no labels dating, fun , a little play if the connections right

I think some see it completely differently ,

Is it their euphemism for NSA sex, FB/FWB or a hook-up rather than dating as such.

No it’s not all about NSA sex for me but the commitment they require is not what I see as casual

I may just be getting it all wrong just wanted other opinions

What the ladies want I would say is definetly not casual. You may go on dates, have sex, you could even go through problems with each other but you're not looking at commitment and can break off anytime. Casual, for me, would be an FWB.

You don't want introducing to mum you mean?

I think the number of people who genuinely want casual is tiny, personally.

I see it as a fwb found the perfect one on pof but sadly he wanted more as time went on! That's why I find here better think expectations are different x

I often think casual is code for ' I'll just dump you with no further thought when I'm fed up with you. And then I'm not an arse cos it was just casual '

Bluntly put but if you’re both aware it can finish at any point surely that’s the casual no commitment aspect

Bit pessimistic, I took it as I’ll turn up for a date in my jammies at mcdonalds.

I always took it to basically mean no commitment and that you'll probably be one of many.

Casual dating is different to fwb for me. As in I want to go on actual dates as well. And what makes it casual is that I know it isn’t leading anywhere realtionshippy. Only works if everyone is really honest about expectations at the outset.

I’ve had some great short term flings.

Fun but with no expectations of anything more. Both free to see other people if that's what is agreed.

Casual on a dating site to me is less than FWB - one night stands or booty calls, not monogamous, just scratching an itch.

It's all open to interpretation though, so I always made sure to be explicit about my expectations in my profile when I used those sites, then brought it up again in the first messages exchanged. Pointless wasting time if we're not on the same page.

When you say perfectly clear.... is saying it enough or do I need a written document with a space to sign as an agreement ?

Everything was said in the beginning
