Friends with Benefits

[Glen Coco]

Do you think it can work without anyone getting attached?

Would you do it?

Would it work better if the friends were close or merely acquaintances?

Have you ever had a friend with benefits?

[Aiden]

I guess it could work for some people. Just depends how emotional they are I guess :)

[karter]

cant work with me

[GoldenMerc]

done it before, always ends in tears...

[wixard]

i think it can work really if you have no interest in the person

i've a friend, good looking guy and gets a lot of girls but i would NEVER be attracted to him or fancy him, ive known him since we were like 6! but every now and again we'll meet up and things may or may not happen

[Glen Coco]

Same same haha.
We started off not close, because of that we got closer. Now we constantly fight but we're still really close. Weird situation.

I have had friends with benefits, imo it's much better than sleeping with a random cause u trust this person and can have a laugh about it, never affected our relationship afterwards and neither of us got feelings. I wouldn't do it with someone i did have feelings for tho cause that would be a disaster, nor would i do it with someone sleeping with lots of other people on the side cause i don't want stds.
i can distinguish sex from love so I don't think sex alone would be enough to make me attached to someone.
mostly tho i ain't rly into it & can live without sexual release and would rather do it with someone im in a relationship with but I know it can work and if people want to then that's cool good for them

the only problem with fwb are people outside the relationship who need to have their word, it's not even a big deal but they make it out to be one

I've seen it end badly too many times

[-Moniquee.]

I have never done it, I guess it depends on the person.

[Kardan]

No, no, acquaintances, no.

I'm not really the sort of person that's into that sort of thing, so I can't really talk about it.

[Futz]

I guess it could work although I haven't had one so i'm not speaking from experience

I could imagine it working 'cause i'm friends with a girl who is quite attractive but I would never want to be anything more than friends 'cause she has such a horrible personality
she's ok to be around irl but she can just turn into such a pleb and some of the things she posts on fb and twitter just make me confused at how someone can come to some these conclusions

[Yawn]

messy as hell

[Eric]

no, i guess feelings can change

[FlyingJesus]

Done it before and most of the time it's been fine, the only problem is if the situation changes like one person wants more or something like that. If it doesn't affect the friendship then why not

[lawrawrrr]

It's the best - as long as you communicate properly, set boundaries and talk about it in a mature way and everything.


on phone xx

It's good while it lasts... But then your life turns into the plot of Swimfan

[Cassiieee]

Don't think I could do it.
