when you are jus "friends with benefits" doesnt it bother you that you guys arent offically together.. as in "bf and gf"? _unsure.gif

sometimes if your feelings are that strong and you feel you can't be more than friends it is hard .. but if you just wanna see people it's perfectly fine to do as you please without strings attached =]
LiNHy POO
i wouldnt... im a jealous person.... soo yehh and feelings might get involed... and one or the other is gonna end up getting hurt... too risky for me!!!

I don't think it's worth it. Someone's gonna end up liking the other person but when the other person doesn't feel the same, it sucks.

i guess it depends on how strong you feel about the person...if you love them and want to be with them and its the closest thing you can get..then its worth it

well if your friends with benefits, AND THEN YOU ALREADY HAVE A BOYFRIEND...that`s not a good thing. _dry.gif

who would you choose? what? depends on the person? i hear that too much... stubborn.gif

i want friends w/ benefits...MUAH! cus they can buy me toys when im sad. WOOT!

Mini, you're a dork. happy.gif

Anyway, I wouldn't go for friends with benefits. My emotional side is way bigger than my sexual side. And besides, my emotional side feeds into my sexual side. I'm hornier with people I like than with people I don't like.. happy.gif

yeah, it bothered me. See there is this long complicated story...me and this guy named brandon were together for like 5 years, well his bestfriend tolbert liked me, and always hit on me, and secretly I always liked it and kinda liked him. Well, I was always a jerk to him tho, so when me and brandon broke up I immediately noticed how much I liked him. So we started hanging out more and we became friends with benefits becuz he was scared that I would hurt him. Well it sucked becuz that meant we were both free to like other ppl and crap, and I hated that...finally last week he asked me to go out with him and just be his gf becuz he doesnt like the just for fun thing either. Trust me...its much better when you are in a relationship, or atleast to me.

huh.gif huh?? i`m just using an example. when you have friends with benefits and then you already have a boyfriend, IT`S HORRIBLE. say you end up liking the FWB, but you already got a boyfriend. what are you going to do about that? fall in love with the FWB or stick with your first choice? i don`t want to end up in that situation...so i limit my relationships to a minimum. happy.gif

that happens too much in the movies and it MAY mislead some couples in love.
Darkpekkle
uhm. i guess it's ok if you just want to fool around with no strings attached.
but i wouldn't do it though. i would rather have a real relationship... doing certain things with people who aren't my boyfriend just seems weird to me and very icky. you'll never see the friend in the same way again.
Squeegie
im a guy and i dont like it.....it makes her feel used...if she likes you and you dont like her dont use her and say lets be "FWB's"...screw that...dont hurt her more than she needs to be....if you like her back go out with her..stop being slow about it
faithin_felix
um...yea, that is sad. but are you in benefit right now? hmmmm.....i think i was in that situation before too.

Spidey2 the movie can relate to this thread happy.gif
xoterezza
hmm..not a good idea. Sooner or later one of the people will develop feelings and only wind up getting hurt in the end.

he_makes_me_happy
Umm........I've tried that whole thing and it doesn't work for me 'cause I end up getting feelings for the guy. It's way too complicated, but if you can do it, more power to you! LOL.

what i mean by friends with benefits.. is that.. I guess.. you both like each other.. but you guys arent together.. you know what i mean?
cleec
I think it's good but you just gotta be sure that you guy friend won't make it weird between the two of you...I mean if you are close why not just have fun with your friendship
haejung012
it depends... usually friends with benefits ends up with someone having feelings... it's not bad if it's both people, but usually it's just one person and that's not worth it.
babygurl_xtacy
couldnt friends with benefits also mean.. u both like each other.. but.. not together?
NawtyLilAznChic

i used to be in a relationship like this but he asked me out...but when we were just friends we had talked about going out but we decided not to because it might ruin our friendship...and things kept going along and we kept getting closer and closer and we were at sixflags and we kissed and we made a mutual effort and we are going out now!

but when we were friends and we would like hang out together and sleep in the same bed and stuff it was really weird...like i thought there was more but there wasn't...i was really confuzzeled!

that's NOT what friends with benefits is.. that's people having a crush on each other, friends with benefits is friends who have a physically romantic relationship and not an emotionally romantic relationship, so in regards to that question:
heck no. i have a really good friend that is an AMAZING kisser, so umm yeah. it doesn't bother either one of us that we're just friends, plus plus plus. mmm.

It all depends on the person. I had fwb before but they were all ex boyfriend's.. but I still had feelings for a few of them. I mean it was pretty okay DURiNG the time.. but once they got girlfriends or I told them how I really felt & they didn't feel the same......that part sucked. And if you're gonna be fwb with someone you like, I suggest you DONT do it. It ends up hurting you a hell of a lot more.
Caitlin
I dont think its worth it.. someone will get hurt maybe & your friendship will be wayy different.
faithin_felix
friends with benefits, i didn't know what it meant either until now, lol.

I don't think I trust anyone enough to be FWB. There's too much stuff going around for that. I mean if you're in a one-on-one situation, at least you can be sure of who (s)he is knockin' boots with, but FWB is Waaaaaaay too open-ended.

people might get hurt that way- so it might feel totally weird
