Just wondering if anyone else out there has or is in a FWB relationship?
Quote by c50t
I haven't. I've been in some relationships that began as friendships, but there was always a romantic element. Maybe it's me. I can't imagine having a play partner without some sort of romance element. My heart and my penis are attached somehow.
Please, don't make me turn in my man card.
I'm going out to ride my motorcycle or start the grill now.

Too funny!
I'm with c50t except that it's my heart and my vagina that are attached. I'd be lying if I didn't admit to having wished that weren't the case sometimes. I think life would be more fun and certainly more carefree otherwise but c'est la vie. Thank God for alcohol! CHEERS!!!!![]()

Actually Jack, the first poster on the thread asked what FWB meant, then changed his post. Just saying.

I think you need to shut up before I shut you up the hard way. Just sayin.

I guess I don't quite comprehend the subtle differences some place between fuckbuddies and FWBs. Buddy=someone you pal around with, hang out, etc. because you like their company FWBs=someone whose company you enjoy and share interests, spend time with, etc. So, you like them both, you have sex with both, but it's not a 24/7 commitment with either. I guess if you're going on vacation, you might ask an FWB to feed your fish while you're away, but wouldn't trust them to a fuckbuddy?

The Fuck Buddy
First of all, let me simply say that in my humble and skewed opinion, fuck buddies are magical.
A fuck buddy can be a casual acquaintance through a friend, family member, work, school, etc. It’s someone who you know well enough that you can trust they wont’ be riddled in STDs but aren’t particularly close to. They usually have some flaw which prevents further developing a relationship, such as being ugly with the lights on, socially retarded, weird and foreign instead of exotic, or is just an asshole. Or you both simply aren’t looking for anything special.
Sex is usually mutually understood to mean nothing beyond that. Any interactions are almost guaranteed to end with bumping uglies. A fuck buddy is a good person to experiment with, as their opinion doesn’t really matter.
The Friend With Benefits
This is altogether a much more stickier situation and way less simple than the fuck buddy. A friend with benefits is usually someone, obviously, who you have an established friendship with. There’s a previous history of caring and concern, but there’s something preventing a full blown relationship between the two of you. It’s a lot more difficult to keep sex simple and emotion-free and it requires a lot more self awareness and control to maintain successfully.
A friend with benefits is a risky endeavor as it has the potential to end friendships altogether and sets the foundation for heartbreak if things start to get out of hand. Undertake with caution.
