jumpoff

Where something begins

A jumpoff is slang for a casual sexual partner—someone you hook up with but don't date seriously.

The term implies convenience without commitment: She's not my girlfriend, just a jumpoff.

In hip-hop culture especially, it distinguishes between romantic partners and those kept around purely for sex.
