people can...but if ur also friends and having sex some one if they are "Normal" is gonna end up feeling something more than friendship for the other...some one just gets hurt...the emotonally challanged dont get like that... and the ones that are scared of commiment find the whole FWB thing easier to get out of

well no, most can't

again, you're lookin for someone to tell you go for it..im not that someone

I've tried to have that kind of relationship before, on more than one occasion. It hasn't worked for me. Maybe it works for some people? But I wouldn't advise it.

i agree...i'm not some one to tell some one to go for something like that...

It is possible, but like others have said, one of the parties usually falls in love and gets hurt. Just not worth it.

If it is not consensual, it is feeling wrong for the WRONG reasons. In other words, both people have to want no strings. It sometimes works best to be polysexual when both people are already involved romantically with others and participate as couples - with everyone knowing and consenting.

I don't condone lying, cheating, or deception.

And, like others have said, FWB (in people who are monogamous) usually benefits only the partner with fears of intimacy and commitment. Its a cop out.

If you are looking to live on the edge and make your sex feel a little "taboo", there are other ways to spice it up, rather than playing with someone's emotional health.

Of course, to each his own. If both parties really think they can do FWB and escape unscathed, more power to them. Just don't whine on the forums after the trainwreck occurs.

FWB's typically don't pan out in the end is what everyone is saying. Of course that is if you are thinking the end result should fall into a category... like you BOTH fall in love and stay together forever? Hmm seems like the FWB thing is out hte door then.

Here's the thing, it can work... but only until someone takes the situation and wants more from it. see?

Just ask for Benifits maybe friends later.

I can only speak for myself. It is not what I want so I choose not to just have friends with benefits.
Been down that road.
just my opinion.
