What are ONS, FWB, KINK etc.? 8 Terms Explained.0. 1

ONS

That’s a one night stand, meaning you will see each other just once, have a coital intercourse and goodbye. But sometimes it’s the start of a long love story with chemistry and butterflies. When you come to an app for fun, no expectations, you sometimes get unexpected bonuses and much more.
 

FWB

Friends with benefits. “If you wanna be my lover, you gotta be my friend” – that was said by the iconic Spice Girls. Does it work for real? Well, it’s something like  the Spice Girls reunion: it can work on rare occasions. Good thing here, if you say yes to this, you will either find a new friend or have a great ONS if you won't manage the FWB setup.

PURE DATING — ANYTHING BUT BORING!

What are ONS, FWB, KINK etc.? 8 Terms Explained.1. 1

Poly

Okay, that one’s tricky! You may know that it refers to ethical non monogamy, but what does it really mean? It means that one wants (and does!) to have several relationships at a time, where everyone knows everything and there is an agreement between all the participants that everyone follows. Is it a fit for you? We don’t know, but do read our article.
 

Sexting

Just like texting but all you talk about is coitus-related. But do spice it up with some jokes!
 

BDSM

Bondage, Domination, Sadism and Masochism. That’s a specific type of relationship. It is not just about pain and power, a great part of the play is aftercare. And of course don’t practice it with someone you don’t know, haven’t discussed rules with or if just something seems off.

Here’s something you have to read, but we encourage you to learn more before you decide whether it’s okay for you.

What are ONS, FWB, KINK etc.? 8 Terms Explained.2. 1

Kink

That’s just something that turns you on. It can be feet or Mozzart! But if this makes you weirdly aroused – that’s a kink. Here is our cool quiz!
 

Enby

That means a non-binary person. Just a right way to tell or write it. 

Sooo here are some basics, but we will be back with more shortly. Do ask your questions and do enjoy dating with the Pure App!
