Hi. Anyone ever been interested in the idea of a friend with benefits. No ties but lots of no-tie fun. Look forward to hearing others opinions

I see a few of you are viewing but noone made a comment. Come on, i'd love to hear your views on the subject and I'll give mine. Have a friend who engages in this kind of relationship (without the relationship) and loves it

I imagine it might be fun for a while, but ultimately not what I would consider ideal for me. I'd probably end up having feelings for her eventually which would throw a monkey wrench in the whole FWB philosophy.

I think it would be great! Who doesn't want a woman you can call anytime for a quick fling?

there is no real "friend" in FWB - so no friends do not use one another - not for sex, not for anything such a person is no real friend besides sexual intimacy without a personal emotional attachment is creepy y'all - srsly

Have a friend who engages in this kind of relationship (without the relationship) and loves it Alright, you asked for it. The concept of "friends with benefits" is the creation of some self-centered guy who thinks with his genitals.

thought about it it would be more like being an unpaid escort/gigolo,,,basically If I had a real friend, feelings would already be there that would make the 'no strings' part too much of a challenge if we ever got physical,,,

Personally I don't see the problem. If you both know what the deal is... and you both are satisfied. As Ive gotten older....sex is just sex ......when there is no " romantic" feeling behind it. My attitude may shock some but so what. I'm an adult.

Fwbs is actually kind of complicated because it involves the friendship first and foremost so you have the mutual respect and then the sex happens nsa when both are available or in the mood. It is hard not to fall in love with someone you already love as a friend. You know you have a friends with benes if no sex is happening and you still hang out together. Of course lots of people mistake fwb as almost anonymous nsa sex which that is not fwbs at all is ansa sex.....

No matter how you look at it...it's a farkt up concept and could only be the brainfart idea of a man.

If I had a FWB, I would become hopelessly emotionally attached to her.

I have never done this because I don't understand how you can sleep with someone and not have feelings for them. So the whole time you are having sex...are you thinking, oh my god I can't like you, just a fling? What if someone falls in love with the other person? You just keep going and keep having sex and never say how you really feel? I could not imagine...I guess this is why I don't do it!
