Friends with Benefits


Question Posted Tuesday December 5 2006, 12:49 am

OK so I'm 19/ female and I'm single. I really don't want a relationship right now.. i want to kind of explore my options. I was wondering or interested in finding out about friends with benefits.. has anyone had this experience? And also what guy(s) should i ask? Should I ask a best friend, an aquantice, or even my ex? I was thinking of asking my ex.. how do I go about asking him?

honestly, i think this is a lousy idea. im sorry but it is. and yeah i have been there, and one of my good friends has been doing this more than once, and really it creates no satisfaction in the end. because when you do things, you should want it to be with someone you really like/love and they share the feeling. someone you actually want for them, not just for whatever you two can do in bed. so im sorry if i seem harsh about this...but thats just what i think. xoxohelpachick

firsly, i seriously recomend against doing it with your ex, friends with benifits is risky enough, and becoming friends with your ex is hard enough without it.

friends with benifits is risky, because in almost all cases, one of the two becomes more emoitionaly attached than the other. if you do want to do it, idealy ask a close friend, but not a best friend. your best friend probably already has a thing for you, but has learned to live with just being your friend, friends with benifits would throw that out the window.

an aquintance could also work, if you can do that, because the issue here would be for you, not the guy. and you arent risking as much

experience = amazing, bff, no commitments

who to ask = a guy you can trust, so i/e your best friend.

how = talk about a 1/2 step, or not ready yet, or getting to "know you better"

make sure you trust him.

thats it.
