Definition - What does Hundred-Mile Rule mean?

The hundred mile rule is a relationship agreement that permits otherwise monogamous couples to seek out other sexual or intimate experiences when they are more than 100 miles apart from each other.

Kinkly explains Hundred-Mile Rule

Choosing an encounter that's far away from home can reduce the likelihood that sexual relationships become more intimate. It can also prevent awkward public encounters with sexual partners.
