Fantasies are fun, exciting and usually harmless but some could lead to more trouble than pleasure. Here are a couple of fantasies you probably shouldn’t act on.
1. Threesomes: Threesomes are a common fantasy among both men and women. Voyeuristic partners are aroused by the idea of watching their partner with someone else; exhibitionist partners are thrilled by the idea of being watched. And some couples think a threesome is a harmless way to spice up their sex life. But before you bring a third person into your bedroom consider the long-term repercussions of acting on this fantasy, especially if you’re thinking of including one of your friends. How will you feel if your partner seems to enjoy the new person more than you? How will you feel the next time you see that friend? Is one night of pleasure worth risking both your relationship and your friendship? The idea of a threesome is usually more exciting than the actual threesome itself; stick to fantasizing about it and keep your sex life between you and your partner.
2. Craigslist Hookups: Sex with a stranger may be exciting but you’d be safer picking up someone at a bar than responding to a Craigslist personals post. Type ‘Craigslist Killer’ into any search engine to read all of the reasons you should stay away from Craigslist hookups; the website is a notorious magnet for sexual predators. If you must use the internet to hookup with strangers, use a site that screens its members.
