| | | Friends with Benefits - does this work for anyone? Friends, I come to you seeking the answer to an age old question - does "friends with benefits" ever work out? It never has for me - I have twice been in that situation but it seems like one person always wants more so ultimately feelings deepen and then everything blows up at 110 miles an hour. Is it just me?

| | Accckkkk! I replied and it went away.
I have this friend who thinks he's the most well adjusted guy in the world and when I told him I found Friends with Benefits to be a myth - he acted like I was messed up! So I knew that my friends here could enlighten me in a way that made me not want to smack them.

| | | I wouldnt say its a myth...but its definetly out there-hell as long as I went without sex I just couldnt see myself finding someone just to get busy with and gettin my rocks off and be like "hey thanks again...see ya at the game!" NOT ME! I have one friend whose got plenty of "friends" but 99.99% of my friends wont even touch that kind of thing...just not our style. And definetly NOT mine.
Oh ok I'll reveal: MAnny on Monday-Tim on Tuesday-Wilson on Wed-Tom on Thurs-Frank on Friday-Sam on Saturday-and Sully on Sunday!
SHEEIT thats just not me-friends with benefits if you can do it-I dont know I guess youre gifted to keep things seperated...

| | | Then back off. Don't get yourself hurt. It's not exactly a clever thing on the list to do if you know what will happen in the end. | |

| | | been in one too. i'll admit, i liked it, i really, reallly liked it. i told a girl friend i was in one, she got mad at me because SHE even said girls can't distinguish emotions from sex, i didn't believe her, then i felt weird cuz i was falling for my friend with bennies, started to think i was being a girl for a while, then i broke it off with her, i felt too guilty.

| | | oops correction...i didn't mean girlfriend, i meant my friend that is a girl. she's my best friend and i tell her everything. there's no way i'd have a bennie if i'm currently seeing someone. that's just wrong.
