And you certainly seem to be mature enuf for it Koolman. If you can find someone who feels the same, go with it. There are a lot of career women out there who have no desire to do the whole "dating thing" either.

I LOVED my FWB thing, however right now letting go of it due to the emotional attachment..I MISS IT! It was so uninhibited (sp)!!!

*pouting*

Question for those of you who've had/are in FWB situations:

How did it start? Did you talk about the boundaries of your "relationship" before things got sexual? Or did you have a random hookup and then talk about it later?

Well Frank, mine started like this .... and every other time in the past. We were attracted to each other from the start. We made it known. Said straight out we would love to hook up, but weren't looking for the relationship, and there you have it. Sometimes we discussed it before hand altogether and sometimes we just had to get it out of our system first, then we discussed what would work and not work.

My FWB mostly just started out as casual one night stands. A couple were aqquiantances where we just got to know each other and talked very openly and decided to go with it cause we simply agreed with each other that we found each other attractive and wanted to have sex. Please bear in mind tho, there was ALWAYS respect. I treated all my FWB as tho they were special to me, cause they were. We just happened to know the boundaries. Hell, i had one FWB that didn't really even particularly care for me and vice versa, but we just both agreed we were hot for each other and so now and then, we got together for sex :) .

I don't think that's quite the same thing as being 'friends with benefits', I call that a relationship. Just because you aren't living with someone, doesn't mean that it isn't valid.

I've got a friend in this situation, her boyfriend has commitments as a full-time carer so they literally can't live together for the foreseeable future. That used to really stress her out, but I think now she's come round to the idea that she prefers having her own space; she's got her own house done up just the way she wants it, and she can just enjoy his company when they do get to see each other. Sounds ideal to me, I think living with someone else can be really damn hard work!

I HAVE QUESTIONS ABOUT FWB'S.

DO FWB'S PERFORM ORAL?
DO YOU KISS THEM?
IS THERE ALOT OF FOREPLAY PERFORMED?

OR IS IT MORE OF A NUT AND GO?

REALLY, I HAVE NO IDEA, AND I'LL PROBABLY NEVER HAVE A FWB, SO I WAS JUST CURIOUS.

Yea i wanna knwo what a FWB is as i have never heard of that before

Phoenix, that reminds me of the country song...Live close by, visit often.

KT Oslin, I think.

FWB is a Friend With Benefits.

You're friends who have sex with each other on occasion, but you're not in a romantic relationship.

I like that, Cari - live close by, visit often - yup, I think that could work for me :)
