Couple looking for a unicorn, what does it mean?

There are more and more ways of relating to each other. It is very easy to get lost among the new terms and partners that exist nowadays. The new trend is unicorn people. Especially in online applications and portals especially dedicated to meeting new people. These are usually bisexual people, who want and are willing to have sex with already formed partners.

The term used to refer to this type of person is related to the mythological animal. A magical being, extraordinarily beautiful and very difficult to find. More or less like what it takes for couples to find the perfect person for what they are looking for.

Existing types of couples

Broadly speaking, in a more familiar way, there are different types of partners. Although in the end everyone lives and pursues the relationship they want. As long as there is consent and desire on all sides, regardless of the orientation and gender identity of the partners.

Open couples: are those in which there is a physical and emotional bond and relationship but which, at the same time, enjoy having sex and physical pleasure with other people.  

Polyamory: A concept that contemplates the possibility of loving and desiring more than one person at a time. Having relationships with more than one person at a time is possible. Especially if you expand your personal ties and boundaries.

Triples or throuple: Related to the previous concept. A throuple is a relationship in which three people interact. There are feelings, interaction and physical experience between all of them.

Monogamy: The most classic and well-known of all. This is because it has been the most common and accepted for years. A couple of two people. In it, there are only feelings and sexual relations between the two of them.

The latter are the ones who “normally” look for unicorn people due to their characteristics. 

Unicorn sex – what is it?

The unicorn person, within a couple, is often bisexual. Their main goal is to spice up and experiment with sexual relations with both partners at the same time. It is neither emotionally nor sentimentally involved. It is, as they say, just sex.

A way to broaden horizons and explore sexuality and desire. Where the rules and limits are usually set and established by the couple. While the unicorn person simply adapts.

So when problems arise, such as jealousy or anything else, physical relations with the unicorn person in this case can be cut off. It is assumed that since there are no emotional or sentimental ties, it is simpler.

Regarding the different sexual orientations, the most popular are usually bisexual unicorn women for straight monogamous couples. But the main objective when looking for this type of person is usually to fulfil fantasies. That is why these figures are also used in different types of relationships and with all kinds of sexual orientations and gender identities.

How to make unicorn sex work?

For those who want it, unicorn sex is quite serious. That is to say, it is not usually pure lust for the sake of trying it anyway. This is the reason why that word is used to give it its name. A term that has been mentioned before: unicorn. Something unique and hard to find.

So in order to get it, it is important to take several things into account:

Communication: dialogue and sincerity

Be openly honest with oneself, with one’s partner and the unicorn’s counterpart. About what one wants to try, rules within the relationship and what are the limits of each one. This is the basis for everything to work. Beforehand, within the couple, to confirm that everyone involved is in agreement. During the search and the encounter and afterwards. To observe how each partner has felt, if expectations have been met, and if it is really what he/she wants.

Understanding and trust

Indispensable when sharing one’s own body and that of the person one loves with an external partner. Be clear about what it is, desire and enjoy it. This is to avoid jealousy, insecurities and discomfort. That is why a couple is more likely to seek unicorn sex when they have been together for a long time. Even married. 

In short, what is the best way to enjoy unicorn sex?

In the end it boils down to a couple looking for another person to experiment with to some extent. Such couples can also be referred to as “unicorn hunters” and it is usually not easy. 

This is a new trend that can be clearly observed in different famous dating apps. But also among some of the ads in the “dating” category on Skokka. More and more women are daring to go deeper into their sexuality and their relationship.

But the most important thing to remember is that, in the end, everyone involved is a person. You need to be clear and explicit about what you want and feel at any given moment. This is the ideal way to see if you are compatible with your partner or with the unicorn. It’s not just about morbidity or a single fantasy. It is about sharing pleasure and interacting in a respectful and free way. When people fell comfortable they set the steps and boundaries needed.

Although unicorn women seem to be the most desired in this sphere, it is important to get rid of objectification and sexualisation. To highlight the desires and feelings of each one in order to fully enjoy this type of practice and for it to really work.
