Coronavirus lockdowns have meant a long, potentially indefinite dry spell for many singles around the world. Two months in, the sexlessness has become so dire that Dutch officials are actually encouraging singles to select a quarantine sex buddy with whom to ride it out.

From the people who brought you “skin hunger” comes its antidote: a quarantine frick buddy. Updated guidance from the Dutch National Institute for Public Health and the Environment (RIVM) suggests single people strike up a friends-with-benefits arrangement for the duration of the lockdown, the BBC reported.

As in any successful friends-with-benefits relationship, clear communication and boundaries are key, with the RIVM suggesting quarantine sex partners discuss a plan to limit the chance of spreading the virus. “For example, meet with the same person to have physical or sexual contact (for example, a cuddle buddy or ‘sex buddy’), provided you are free of illness,” said the new RIVM guidelines. “Make good arrangements with this person about how many other people you both see. The more people you see, the greater the chance of (spreading) the coronavirus.”
