| It won't work if you don't embrace the possibility of it ever growing into more from the very beginning. I think friends with benefits is really a phase that people are trying to turn into a permanent state and that's what kills it, but really most relationship starts in a friends with benefits manner. It's the phase in most relationships where you enjoy and respect each other not really knowing what tomorrow will bring. |

Posted by beautifulsoul74 In reality until you committ fully, thats simply what dating is. Being in limbo. The problem is people try say " oh we're not together, but I don't want you sleeping with anyone else." What?!! Oh, soooo true... I always try to sweeten the deal - free money-off vouchers (of their choice) for every encounter. :-P |

| In reality until you committ fully, thats simply what dating is. Being in limbo. Youre more than acquaintances but not officially together. Most people can tell if omething more is going on between you than just bring "friends." I look at it this way, if we're close and we're having sex then we're dating. The problem is people try say " oh we're not together, but I don't want you sleeping with anyone else." What?!! |

| FWB has been around for a long time I have several ladys who like it. They see no need to take the relationship futher so why should I. It even better if some of your lady friends or Bi sexual. |
| Usually if a guy really likes you, he won't treat you like a sex object. He'll actually DATE you and put in effort to be your boyfriend; not your FWB a.k.a. fuq buddy because lets be real here: usually the people are not truly friends, people just call it friends so that it doesn't look as sleazy as it is |
| fwb are the worse idea anyone can have. Usually one side would wish for a relationship. It can be hurtful and cause problems to both parties. I would advise anyone to just stay away. |

Been in 2. The first one lasted a year but i broke it off. there were many reasons but a big one is that he was confused as to what he wanted and it kinda messed with me. he kept saying that he was trying to make me his gf, and even tried to make it official one night, but then would take it back after coming to his senses. The 2nd one is now my bf. I started seeing him when I was with the other guy. My bf didn't want to be just FWB but I wasn't ready yet so he waited for me. I even asked him just last night why he stuck around if he wasn't getting what he wanted. He said he knew I would come around to see that it was him I loved. |

| Its not just, "Friends with Benefits" as the term implies. Its easy to miss the words, "And Risks" in the fine print within the fine print within the fine print at the end. |

Google me you stalkers =)
I think guys would be completely 100% ok with it IF things didn't always get complicated. If men could spend the rest of their lives getting all of their needs met WITHOUT the commitment & without the drama that comes from NOT having the commitment lol, I think they'd prefer FWB over commitment/marriage any day. Hell, it seems that alot of men only commit b/c that's the only way they can get all the "benefits" from the person who got them whipped. It's almost like they think, "Ok honey, in exchange for me freakin' finally commiting to you (sigh), you better give me some good ole benefits! You owe me!" |

treetrunk buddys is usually what causes the problems because to begin with there is nothing there but the sex, but friends with benefits, to me, can easily work aslong as neither want a relationship. I had a treetrunk buddy that turned into a FWB and I ended up falling for him, but that was because we met on a sexual level and then became friends, and I realised I really liked him. The other way round (friends first who sleep together basically because there horny and dont want to sleep around) I can easily deal with. The guy im currently seeing used to be a FWB. Then he decided he wanted to be with me properly so now were giving it a go (very slowly!) to see if we work as a couple, his idea not mine so I guess some guys end up wanting more. Then again he is a Cancer and in my experience they seem to have a harder job just doing the whole non commital thing.
