I didn't really get the poll
Friends with Benefits supposedly means to be physically active with a person thats only a friend. I find it wrong in many ways, and I highly doubt most people can keep it all at a friend level. Eventually one person is going to move on and the other is going to feel bad because they fell for the other person. |

eh i don't really care, but in a way no because someone will get attached eventually and then mess things up and then the friendship will be lost. and someone will move on and then blah.

Unless you can guarantee that you will never develop feelings for that person it's a bad idea.

Unless you can guarantee that you will never develop feelings for that person it's a bad idea. I agree but nothing is guaranteed (besides death but let's not be morbid) so I think it's always a bad idea...but that doesn't mean that it always has a terrible outcome. That's how the relationship with me and my significant other started...we've been together for more than a year. |

It's kind of weird to become physically attracted to your friend...to me it is.

Anytime you get into something physical with someone, SOMEBODY's going to get attached.
It might be fun at the time, but someone's gonna be hurt. |

I don't think that FWB is a good idea. Eventually one of the people involved is going to mistake their physical activities for love/attraction and start to like the other person, and the other person won't since the point of FWB is to not like them. You will just end up getting hurt.

if you don't want anything serious, then go for it.
if you're not a type of person to be playing around, then don't. simple as that. it's called intuition. |

Well...it doesn't ALWAYS have a bad ending like Chii said. But 90% of the time it does, so you have to be careful if you're going to play around with FWB.
But then again, that's sort of how me and my bf got together. We weren't quite what you'd call FWB...but we held hands and essentially did everything that a couple would do minus kissing. And we got together because things just seemed too weird. |

Friends with benefits. It's an option. Some think its wrong, some think its alright.
Who ever gets attached knew the risk when they started. |

like someone said,
it can work for some people. but it just wont ever work for me because i would feel weird when someone asks me "is that your boyfriend?" "oh no, we're just friends with benefits" so i guess it pretty much depends on if you really want to have benefits with that person. :) so i say, maybe so/who cares =] |

i think you should seperate your friends and your lovers. if you go to bed with your friend, its pretty much not just a 'friend' anymore... |

Anytime you get into something physical with someone, SOMEBODY's going to get attached. It might be fun at the time, but someone's gonna be hurt. Agreed. I've tried it a few times and it just doesn't work. Someones feelings develope into more and thrn it just gets messy. |

at least one person ends up liking the other, and wants more, or a real relationship, but that one doesnt feel the same cause they have commitment issues, and then the other person ends up getting hurt. I hope that made sense

No I find it a bit immature. Eventually the relationship is going to go downhill because eventually someones going to fall for the other more than just being a friend.
Perhaps search around for other similar topics ![]() http://www.createblog.com/forums/index.php...s+with+benefits |

Any "benefits" should be kept between two people who actually love each other. There is not love in a sexual relationship and it actually hurts people the most when they breakup. This is because they feel like they have given up a huge part of themselves.
So, I wouldnt recommend a "friends with benefits" type of relationship. ♥ ALEX

![]() female friend let my ex grope her in my computer class. He had this sick-perverted "I'm getting some" smirk on his face and she was just laughing away doing nothing not even saying anything about his hands being all over her breasts. I was so bothered I looked away while it happened. Didn't say anything to them about it until I went online. But once I was able to talk to them in private, man did I lecture them out. We talked about it the next day as well and I sure-darn hope they felt so ashamed they wouldn't even think about doing it in front of my eyes at least. My female friend's behavior disgusted me the most. Guys.. Some are like that in general but it is only because she put'd herself out like a sex doll they treat her like my ex did. I wonder sometimes whether she likes looking like a hot whore giving out freebies during school hours. I hope she grows out of it soon. I don't blame her for wanting to be attractive and wanted but even the innocent need to feel attractive has its limits. By the way, FWB doesn't get my approval. /mom-ish rant |

Two topics merged. :P
QUOTE(suddenly she) Unless you mean business partners, and then I'm completely sorry I took that the wrong way? LOL. XD I've never done this before and never wanted to. I much prefer the feeling of being in a meaningful relationship to the idea of this alternative - for me, the physical part of a relationship is empty and not enjoyable without strong feelings backing it. |

I said yes because say you were both single. Just because you both were single doesn't mean you have to be lonely. No strings attached, one night stands whenver, no feelings.

I guess if it doesn't bother either person and they just want some "action," whatever. It really depends.
I had a make-out session with one of my friends. Yeah, alright, so we both wanted some "action," but gosh, did I feel "whore-ible" afterwards. (That was TOO TEMPTING, haha.) Never again. I don't even think I want to see him ever again because it will be so incredibly awkward for me. I don't even like him. I think that was my thing, the fact that it didn't mean anything. So yeah. But if you're comfortable with it, whatever. |

Friends with benefits aren't that great.
Aren't they supposed to be like...just normal friends? No actual liking towards each other, anyway? xD Haha. This year I kinda had something like that. It wasn't like...extreme or anything. Just after lunch we'd be like, "AWW. BOYFRIEND. I LOVE YOU." then a kiss on the cheek. xD It was more of a pretend thing than friends with benefits. |

Heres a simile...... Friends with benefits are like 2 pieces of paper and super glue.... If super glue the 2 pieces of paper together and try to take them apart.... what happens? The paper rips and one piece takes some of the other. Basically FWB's take away part of each other prior to marriage thus leaving their future husband/wife deprived b/c of stupid mistakes made in the past.
