Friends with Benefits....smart idea?

Answer 1

Friends with benefits.....................................
Two friends who have a sexual realtionship without being emotionally involved. Typically two good friends who have casual sex without a monogomous relationship or any kind of commitment

Getting involved in emotional activities yet expecting emotions to not be involved.........
What you need to remember honey, is while you're using someone else, you're also allowing yourself to be used........
that's not a good place to be is it?

Answer 2

the consequences are greater than the benefits
More than half of all people will have an STD/STI at some point in their lifetime.
Although the majority of births to unwed mothers are NOT to teenagers, many older unwed mothers may have been pregnant as a teenager. Unwed teen births have long-term ramifications for not only individuals but communities. Regardless of the age of the mother, research indicates that unwed births are related to such things as welfare dependency, substance use, crime, poverty, chronic unemployment, and excessive high school dropout rates. Although these factors cannot be entirely explained by births to unwed mothers, being born into a single-parent household places a child at much greater risk of encountering these negative experiences.
So before you give benefits to some one undeserving under stand the possible out come

Answer 3

Only if you are 200% sure you will be able to handle the situation, because it's so easy to develop a crush or even fall in love with a friend with benefits...
Good luck.

Answer 5

I had friends on benefits and I was working. I dated a guy on the dole. Lovely bloke but hard on us both in the end. Sure, meet all kinds of different people and be friends, why not? Just remember, you don't have to subsidise or pay any debts that aren't yours to pay

Answer 6

Yeah - IF u can both handle the fact that either person can quite possibly sleep with someone else!! This EXACT thing has just happened to me....known him for two years..basically we were FWB / FB.... discovered last week he had been doing basically the same with some other girl as well!!! My feelings for him went far far deeper than he ever knew about, or any he felt for me. Basically don't do it if u can't handle someone else being with him/her when they aren't with u..I couldn't handle it. I fell for him, Big style. Now I'm the one whos hurt. End ov...

Answer 7

well i agree with wat USER TBONE said cuz when u think about it the STD'S and AIDS and children born its kinda sad. U can use all the protection u want but I think u should have one partner. how safe is it, and what happens if u fall for them or u find out they done it with 100 other people are u willing to give up yourself worth just for "it" well u do what u feel is right jus be careful

Answer 8

short term great. but long term this could leave you feeling used and abused. so long term not a smart idea.

Answer 9

No it just another way of getting laid, i personal don't just sleep with anyone including friends but that's just me, i prefer in a relationship

Answer 10

Consenting adults, in private? Fine by me.

I'd prefer if neither was in a serious relationship, but maybe I'm old-fashioned.
