JUST LIKE GOLDILOCKS, WE’VE FOUND THE PERFECT MEDIUM: THE RELATIONSHIP SWEET SPOT THAT’S MORE THAN A ONE-NIGHT STAND BUT NOT ENOUGH TO HOLD A GOOD (BAD) GIRL DOWN
‘Why don’t we have both?’ has become the catch-cry of the Gen Y set. We want to travel but we want a career; buy a house but have avo on toast; look like Kayla Itsines but also live on mimosas. We’ve been looking for the secret ingredient to personal life balance – and we may just have found it. Introducing the several-night stand (or SNS), also known as the answer to the question, ‘How can I avoid the shitness of the one-night stand while still having some pretty awesome casual S-E-X?’
Even among those of us averse to getting serious (for the moment), some are still keen on something that mimics an actual relationship – without the admin. When we’re talking about ‘having it all’, we’re not referring to life. Well, we are – our sex life.
The SNS is a handy description given to the act of, er, spreading a one-night stand over a few nights. Several nights, if you will. It stops short of anything that could be considered dating. It’s like friends with benefits – except he’s not your friend. What a time to be alive.
