\"What-Exactly-Is-A-Hook-Up\"<\/a>Throughout the ages a \u201chook up\u201d has been called numerous things and has changed considerably. The idea is the same, it means getting together with someone in a sexual fashion for a night of pleasure. The key definition of a hook up<\/span> is that you have relations with them, the rest is completely left open to the person who is involved in the hook up<\/a>. There is no clear definition of a hook up. To some it can mean having sexual intercourse, for others it can be any sexual encounter, but a hook up is something that is supposed to be positive, like \u201cscoring\u201d, it is a conquest for those who are looking to be with someone.<\/p>\n

A hook up can be with someone you know, or have never met before. When someone asks you \u201cdid you hook up?\u201d<\/i>, they mean did you connect with the person. When you say no, everyone understands that you did not make an impression, or have any relations with the other person. If you say, \u201cyes, I did hook up\u201d<\/i> that can mean just about anything to both persons. So if someone says that they hooked up<\/strong> it would be a mistake to think that they had sexual intercourse which is usually the mistake most people make in the interpretation. <\/p>\n

When you see that person in the bar or club, or even the grocery store that you find attractive, intriguing, or just someone you would like to meet, the goal is then to hook up with them, or get to know them in some fashion. The first step to a hook up<\/a> is having the courage to approach them. It is impossible to hook up with someone if you don\u2019t attempt to meet them, talk to them, or connect with them in some fashion. The long term goal of a hook up can vary. There are some times when a hook up is something that someone desires to be a one time thing, such as \u201cwe hooked up last night after the bar\u201d, while other times there is a more long term goal desired, such as hooking up to hang out for a while.

A hook up is always a sexual thing. You don\u2019t hook up to have a deep conversation, talk about politics <\/a> or to debate historical significance of events. A hook up is purely sexual and gratifying<\/strong>. It is also a phrase that is used by younger individuals versus those over 40. You don\u2019t hear many senior citizens talking about their latest hook ups. That is not to say that they don\u2019t engage in hook ups, they just don\u2019t talk about it in that manner. So, is a hook up something that is derogatory, or degrading to the person that you have an encounter with? The answer to that question is not necessarily. Just because someone is telling their friends that you \u201chooked up\u201d with them, it may be a way that they are actually keeping your actions secret. Such a broad term, it can hide the true meaning of what you engaged in.
