So hows the idea of dating someone who is "poly" or in an open relationship feel?? like I need an excedrin and a vacation to escape the inevitable drama.... |

Is it just you and him and nobody else?? would he come over on your
time or are you at his beckon call?? it never would work for me it's difficult enough to find some one tall AND attractive let alone work out the details of "friends" with benifits.. find a B.O.B (battery operated boyfriend) |

If ya think about all the stuff being posted.. felling cheap feeling used getting emotionally attached feeling awkward bad ending These can happen and often do in ANY relationship. So, really whats the difference. Different strokes for different folks. |

How awkward is this really? Sex is amazing don't get me wrong, just imagine meeting someone for one thing and not wanting more. Especially if you're talking them, hence the friends part. Don't know where the benefits come in, personally I think people who can pull that off flawlessly, still baffles me. I can get behind being friends but having sex with them would make me feel cheap; like I was just a piece of meat to them. If I am going to have sex; there has to be romance involved. If a guy is a friend; then there is no romance between us. I guess for some; as long as they get sex; it doesn't matter whether there are romantic feelings. I can't have sex with someone I don't feel some kind of connection with. With FWB I always picture two robots doing it. There's something inhuman attached to it. Yep; I agree. May as well just have a one night stand as its pretty meaningless sex. What do you consider to be meaningless sex? If it were people who were actually friends, why would it be meaningless? |

my FWB with my ex is painful for me,
but I do not want to give it up. I am still in some type of love with her, as much as you can be with someone who cheats and lies. I do not want to be in a relationship with her as that just don't work. FWB works great for the most part, other then a few feelings it kicks up here and there. I see her she fills that void for me and I take care of her needs and we go on with our lives. since she is already with someone else I have no hopes of reconnection and am fine with that. She knows I am looking for my special someone and that I do not believe in being with more then 1 women at a time. So It will end when I find someone or she finds someone she can't do this to. It is very messed up but I don't want it to change. But then again like I said I still have unwanted love for her so... I have no idea what my point is. ^^ was just discussing this on the phone with her so yeah sorry kinda of upset lol. |

It's been my experience that emotions and attachments form, regardless of your intentions of "sex without strings". It might be possible, but it hasn't worked out that way for me. |

Have you ever had a FWB relationship? I tried to. It was hard to continue the sex without saying how I felt. Apparently that's bad in FWB. |

Guess if ya couldn't say how you felt then ya went really friends. Can't base everyone's FWB as robotic, unhuman, unemotional, nonconnected and awkward cause yours was a bad experience. It's just not for you. Next! |

I didn't think it was anything more than what porn stars get paid to do. Not saying people who do that are tawdry, I don't know what else to compare it to. I don't have sex with my friends either. I can't make an act of love with a guy without some romantic passion behind it. |
