In these busy times, finding the physical space in your life to take care of your sexual wellness and wellbeing can be quite a challenge. Now the part-time romance has become the favoured form of low maintenance relationship, for those people who simply don’t have the time and certainly don’t have the desire for a full-blown relationship. Busy, independent young professionals are increasingly indulging in casual relationships which take up as little time and energy as possible whilst still meeting their needs.
Parttimelove.co.uk is a new website set up based around this concept. It was launched by journalist, blogger and relationship author Helen Croydon, based on the idea that people often want to find meaningful romance but don’t have time for all the obligations that usually go with it. So, if you’re looking for a partner to sleep with, have pleasant times with but avoid meeting the parents, this might be the one for you. On the website, there is a database of all members who have selected to opt in from other dating sites. It costs upwards of £20 for membership and users have a profile picture and a biography, the same as any other dating site. The only difference is that all those who are on the site understand that every member wants to retain their independence. Shift workers in the health profession find the site useful, as they are able to have a relationship that works around their irregular hours. Casual relationships understand that there are times when their new squeeze can’t see them, which is different to how things normally work in the dating world. Others who join have recently come out of long-term relationships so want to be clear that they are not looking for commitment, but without playing any games.
