If someone asked you to be a F.W.B, Would you? OR, Would that be a turn off to you? Seems like a common thing now. I'm curious to how people in general really think about this subject.

Its a turn off to me. ITs a way of saying upfront they want the privileges (sex, companionship) With no responsibility (commitment, loyalt), and thats not how I roll.
Its getting the milk for free, so to speak. Which is a turn off.

it would depend on the person....sometimes it works, other times it doesn't.

Seems contradictory to me. Friends don't treat each other like that and remain friends for long.

No, that's certainly not what I want. I'm much more content with an asexual relationship. It just makes things so much easier.

It would be a turn off to me. I have more self-respect for myself.

Friends first, I respect myself to much for FWB, I am not a sex toy, I am a lady.:heart:

I guess I'm not a lady....I have no plans to make a commitment. I've had FWB for several years now....nothing wrong with it..at our age, who cares anyway..We don't see each other often at all..his job has him traveling and I travel a lot too..But we have the same interests and are on the same page on most everything...I'm sure not ashamed of it..all my family have met him and everyone likes him.

Boy, I'm a little surprised at the answers. The people who are turned off to the concept are really turned off. Not sure I understand. I would think this type of thing would work well for a lot of folks.

Second thought, really a question. Do you guys think Pepper (my doggie) is using me for a good time?

I completely respect that. Good for you! It took me a long time to get over the notion that "good girls don't and bad girls do" even though I haven't been NEARLY as "bad" as I'd like to be!

ya know...I don't sleep around...but if I wanted to, I guess I still could..my life is my own. I don't have to answer to anyone anymore.. but I date very seldom. All my grandkids want to 'find' me someone and wonders why I don't want anyone for a long term basis. But I've been there, and now am pretty content with my life like it is.

awww viv you are a trollop just admit itlaugh laugh
Seriously ,what you do and with whom is your business,that does not make you any less of a lady then someone who does not like FWBs.
It just boils down to what works for you and what doesn't.
As for myself it doesn't work for me , but that doesn't make me better than you, just different.

The problem is most adults can't do it.

If you hump em...love must surely be involved.

I would guess that maybe 5% of the population has enough emotional control to do it. The rest of the crowd are just kidding themselves.
