Lol no not sex for free, having sex for money is an incentive or "string attached," my question is how to say you want to stay friends but enjoy the physical benefits. Not everyone is seeking a happily ever after, but even those people that are not don't want to feel disrespected. I get how just wanting a physical relationship can be viewed as something "pigs" do but I don't see it that way. We as humans have urges per say, it's inevitable it's programmed into our brains. But why should have to boil down to love or emotions to acquire or satisfy those urges?

Look I get the point you are trying to make, but I'm not getting into the topic of religion.

My late wife and I refrained from sexual intercourse until after we had our wedding.

Perhaps we Melmacians are the only ones who can learn to control our urges.

Yes, it is something that can be learned.

Im regards to being seen as a "pig" that is your judgement, I haven't seen anyone on the thread make that assumption.

Then you say "I dont want a relationship . I just want sex." But you can't make someone say yes. And if you manipulate the situation then there will be drama.

But to me, it sounds like you are trying to justify past actions which made a female upset because you tried to be "nice".

I know no one said pig, it's just people who prefer no strings attached get a bad rep, and I'm not talking about manipulate I would want a partner that shares the same perspective. If my partner wants emotions I'm not gonna try to convince her otherwise.

Hi so I'm a full time student & employee and well the dating game is tough. I would like to know what's the polite and successful way to tell a girl that you just want a platonic and physical relationship.

That is so easy.

Hello, I'm (a) Dick. I want to use your body
for my own needs and do not wish to have any
kind of future with you..just the sex.

Oh, you said 'polite' and 'successful.'

Carry on..

simple...

i want what i want from you, if that is ok, and i will give you what you want, as long as that is ok with me.

as long as we both together equally agree.

two people's wants, ain't that hard to satisfy, when they just say it like it is, without all the tiptoeing around the emotions...

most just bypassing all those who are sensitive to their own feelings, but totally unsensitive to all others.

smiles...

happy new year.

She would always say if you don't want your sisters treated that way don't do it to other, I'm a huge believer in karma. I'm not looking for a way to manipulate women. I just want to know how to explain to a girl what I want with out making her feel belittled or portraying myself as douch bag. I want a friendship but a friendship that engages in the physical act of sex. I don't want to fall in love cause I'm quite certain I would give up my dreams for the girl. Becoming a DR is important too me, more then falling in love right now.

Thanking you for replying without a vindictive attitude. I'm not trying to be a "playa" I don't believe in polygamy but I do think people can have a healthy relationship without involving the desire to seek lifelong or long term commitment.

chapo753, what exactly are you wanting?

As a single person, are you wanting a relationship that does not involve sexual intercourse ... thus conforming to your profile description?

You can have a relationship involving plenty of physical affection without indulging in sexual intercourse.

According to this thread's title, platonic relationships are the subject of this thread, and platonic relationships do not have sexual intercourse involved with them.

I think it's a common term when someone's says "we have a physical relationship," they mean sexual intercourse or some form of sexual activity. Yes if you want to get down to the details what I posted says the way you described. I just don't underestimate people and think the understand the corn term physical relationship. The reason I added platonic cause is time permits i would like to be able to say "hey I'm free this weekend let me buy you dinner," I just dislike the term friends with benefits.

In your opening post, you say that you want a platonic relationship, and there is no sexual intercourse in a platonic relationship.

As I explained all ready, I failed to proof read. My title wanted the word physical before relationship.

Either you want a platonic relationship, which doesn't include sexual intercourse (because platonic relationships never include sexual intercourse), or you want a non-platonic relationship that includes sexual intercourse.

If it is the latter, then you are wanting to take the path that I once took ... and lived to regret it.

each experience to create wisdom for that one them self, for what good is the hearsay of others...

for what does it factually matter to any who say's to another what it felt like to walk 9 miles in the snow to school as their own personal plight...

all must "feel" their own pains and success's to make it all REAL, versus hearsay from another, to become wise each it self.

for wisdom for each can be not transferred by the tellings of the personal experience of each.

happy new years to all!
