no, personally i don't believe it works, one member of the friendship ends up emotionally invested eventually

Complete bullshit. Either you have someone you frequently hook up with and fuck, or you have a BF/GF, or you have a friend. The whole "FWB" garbage is just that. Say you have a fuck buddy and be done with it, because most of the time, you're not hanging out and doing tons of "friend" stuff with your so-called "FWB." You just get together and fuck. Period.

I have had people in the past (never when I was dating like I am now) where (with guy or girl) we would get together just for the sex and that's all it was. never got weird. maybe that is not the way it should have been, but it was and it never got weird or no one was hurt.

i think it can work, but only if both people are on the same page from the start.

i have a friend that doesn't live close so when we do get to hang out we can have dinner, drive around, hang out... and also fuck if she's in the mood lol

Definitely a thing, had quite a few. No one got attached, it was just what it was - two friends having sex. But, usually for me it would only be like during nights out or if we were both going to something. We would rarely ask to meet up just for that. Plus, they're all still really good friends now

Most people can't handle it. They get attached too easily. But it definitely a thing.

I feel I would get attached as well because I have only gone as far as Tonguing so having to finger, and getting a hj/bj and then sex might be too overwhelming.

I had a fwb for a pretty long time but after a while I wanted more but he didn't so it ended.

I agree with Elijah. I read the other replies, and though I never had a fwb, for my thinking I will be worried about other feelings developing, and if it doesn't change into a love relationship then it will ruin the friendship.

I had one before meeting my gf, we both agreed it was only for sex and both had never had any problem with it, when I started dating my gf we stopped, now two years later we are still friends.

I'm demisexual so I would be the last person to be caught in a friends with benefits situation. I'm sure there's people out there that would be able to handle the situation without developing feelings.

It can work but it's sorta difficult. I have one such friends and for us it works fine.

As I see it, it can work well for a time. But after a while FWB morphs into EWB (Enemy Without Benefits).

For some people it probably works, but not for the most people, i guess. So it may work for a short time, but no one should rely on it longterms.

Yes. Most of the time, it's a slippery slope into a ditch. The parties need to be mature enough to do it. When I did it, I was very naive and I already had feelings for the guy, which was really bad. It's all about maturity and being sensible.

It's been so long. I have had a gf for over 2 years. And she was my first. But before her I had several friends who would blow me or i would go down on. Never got awkward. But then We never had sex or went past oral so maybe that matters idk.

I have friends that I hang out with and do stuff with who I have casual, no strings sex with and it doesnt get awkward.

Everything isnt for everybody, so to each his own.

No-Its a good way to ruin a
friendship. Romantic feelings
might arise.

I don't think it's appropriate to have an FWB. I think for me personally, it would make me feel like dirty.

I think it can work for some people. I have done stuff with some boys i consider friends. But its not that easy and I find I dont hang out with them so much as friends anymore. Its probably easier to have a f-buddy that you dont have feelings for, or a one night stand, than doing stuff with a friend because I do have feelings (of friendship) for my friends.
