Does it work? Do feelings get in the way after a while?
Where can I find one of these friends?

Yes
Almost never
Almost always
Don't bother

It works on paper. If the feeling deal is kept open and honest, there should not be any problem(s). As far as where to find one of these friends is another issue. I have been searching for some time now. You wouldn't happen to be a female interested in a "no strings attached/ let's see what happens" kind of guy would you?

Do not know where you can find one, but yes they do exist.
It is a way of having shall we say yourself pleasured without the hassle of commitments.
But, it must be an understanding from the get go.
A friend of mine had the arrangement many years ago. It lasted about 7 - 8 before she started seriously dating her husband. At that point she said they had a nice dinner and said their Just friends thing. The gentleman in question is the God Father of her middle daughters (Twins).
It takes a lot of maturity to enter into an arrangement like this and you have to understand when your friend is unavailable.

The only time 'friends with benifits' has worked for me is after we had already been in a relationship, but we decided to stay friends...he was definately a f*** buddy. It worked though because we already knew it wasnt going to work out as a relationship between us. Where to find one though I do not know.

Yes there is. But make sure you both understand that no feelings are involved so that noone gets hurt. And be sure not to do too much so neither of you get attached or fall for one another. where do you find one? I don't think there is a store for one lol. It just kinda happens.

yes it works, but you have to control your feelings about the other person. After all, its only supposed to be fun and games nothing serious. You can find a friend like this anywhere upon agreement. Good luck!

It works great but you have to control your feelings about them because you can easily become jealous if he or she is messing around with a guy or a girl . You just have to make friend with people and and trust them in your life to have them as friends with benefits .

yes there is and it does work, but feelings play a big factor. you can become to involved and turn it into a relationship with really awesome sex or it can go bad really quick. Friends like these normally aren't right in front of your face you have to do some hard looking

Lot of people say you both have to know no feelings are involved. How many of us have control over that?I could fall for someone real easy. The answerer above me makes sense.
