What are the Do's and DONTs in your opinion?

I'm just trying to understand what is normal, since it's a situation where there is no strings attach, but sometimes it leads to a relationship at the end.

I was reading stories about it. I'm curious

Line it up in order if you have to

Do:

1. Communicate needs and expectations

2. Set boundaries

3. Use protection

Don't:

1. Catch feelings without letting your FWB know so that again, boundaries can be set in stone and the relationship can continue smoothly with necessary adjustments

2. Not use protection

3. Fuck without having tested clean from STD's

*PS: Don't talk to me about whoever else you're fucking. I don't wanna know about that shit.*

Follow the acronym HARP:

Honesty = Both of you need to be honest about what you want out of the situation.

Agreement = Boundaries need to be established from the get go and once they're set, don't cross them.

Remember = Remember they're not your boyfriend/girlfriend and they don't owe you anything beyond what you both agreed on.

Protection = Always use protection.
This is new to me
