Sex with your best friend Will the relationship survive?

June 8 is Best Friends Day, a celebration that dates back to 1935, when the United States Congress decided to dedicate a day to close friends, a perfect time of year for outdoor activities. This festivity gained popularity with the advent of social networks, which provide an excellent excuse to thank all your friends with photos, dedications, and funny stories.

Beyond labeling them and thanking them for their valuable friendship , this celebration opens the opportunity for us from #TuSaludIntima to talk about the type of intimate relationships we develop throughout our lives, with those special people who can become sexually attracted, crossing the border of friendship and complicating or strengthening that relationship that united them.

So let's see what we put at risk with this type of relationship and if it is worth going ahead with that spark of desire that suddenly appears. Everything will depend on the course that both decide.

What kind of friends do you have?

If this is your case, today we want you to analyze and take into account some aspects that arise when we get involved sexually with our friends.

Much more than best friends

The best friends are those people with whom we usually have a deep friendship that supports distance, storms and silence. Whether we've known them our whole lives or they're a recent addition, they make tough times more bearable, make times fun and memorable, smooth out the rough edges of life, and make it interesting. One of those relationships that are definitely priceless.

Expectations! Try to move to the sexual plane not only for the desire of a night, but because there is a genuine interest in that person, because otherwise, you can hurt, confuse and entangle the relationship. The moment you cross that line there will be no turning back, you must have things clear and weigh what you have, what you hope to have and what you do not want to lose.

When these types of friendships cross the borders of friendship, you must take into account the two possible scenarios:

1. Good luck! This is someone who knows you very well and that can help you get along much easier. It may be the beginning of a beautiful relationship and that the love of your life has been by your side all this time without you realizing it.
   
   
2. That doesn't work! If you discover that it is not the person you want to be with, think that you may lose a valuable friendship, difficult to recover.

Think about the pros and cons of each of these scenarios and make your decision with no regrets.

Crush, Free, friends:

We're talking about occasional sex with that friend you don't know much, that you just met, your friend's friend, the one you know from university or the office. With whom you decide to have a relationship with less formal commitment than a courtship.

In this type of relationship the risks are different:

• Health! Since they do not have a single sexual partner, you expose yourself to contracting sexually transmitted diseases. Whereas using a condom is an indispensable basic condition in this type of relationship, although it does not fully protect you.
  
  
• If you fall in love: in these relationships there is a commitment not to involve feelings. The problem arises when one of the two falls in love and wants to have a commitment. And it is that it is normal for someone to discover qualities, tastes and affinities in the other that make love arise. Are you willing to face heartbreak, disappointment and separation?
  
  
• Infidelity: since they have no commitments, the option of going out with other people is open. So you must be prepared if one day you find him with another person, an unpleasant situation that can make you feel jealous, awaken a feeling of possession and emotional attachment.
  
  
• Living in secret: Such a relationship can be exciting at first, but the question arises if you feel comfortable hiding everything forever, if it is sustainable and convenient for you in the long term. If your belief system, your upbringing or your social environment approves this type of relationship and if that affects you emotionally or not.

For this and more it is convenient for you to think better before giving rein to this type of relationship. In our online store you will find a professional team willing to talk and accompany you to solve it in the #SexCoaching sessions .
