it's not necessarily playing with people's emotions. yes, it can be, and some people do treat friends with benefits badly, but it can be perfectly fine.
I think it's just lazy.You get all the perks of a sexual relationship without all the responsibility. And yeah that SOUNDS great and all, but I think after a while it becomes unhealthy. Someone will end up getting hurt.
It happened to my best friend. She was fuck buddies with some guy and was hurt when she found out about the 8 other girls. That's a problem, emotions are inevitable.
And plus, what happens when you WANT to tie sex and emotions again? After being fuck buddies for long enough sex might just not mean as much anymore. And that will suck because sex is a big part of a relationship (lack of, or abundance of sex really).
Lets say that a few months or weeks ago, i got out of a bad break up.
I wouldn't want another boyfriend for a looooooong time
But, just because i don't have boyfriend, doesn't mean I dont want to have someone i can kiss, etc.
But if i'm not emotionally ready, it would make everything MUCH more complicated then just having like a fuck buddy. Maybe eventually, that person and I could evolve into something better.
but if youre not emotionally ready, and you are physically ready, you gotta do what you gotta do.
i dont think this is bad!
My bestfriend and i are like this!
for the 2 or more hours that he is over we are more than bestfriends but once he leaves we go back to being bestfriends,
that IS a relationship basically... My boyfriend is my best friend when he is away and when he is with me... but when he is with me he is also more than that. THAT is a relationship
that IS a relationship basically... My boyfriend is my best friend when he is away and when he is with me... but when he is with me he is also more than that. THAT is a relationship
I guess I think it's always based on the person and situation. Sometimes both people will know what they're signed up for sometimes something different will happen, it just always depends
I don't see much of a problem with it as long as both people agree to a set of rules they come up with and they break it off if they become emotionally attached (assuming that's something they don't want)
FRIENDS WITH BENEFITS FTW!!!!!!!!!!!
hahaha I think we could be great...friends.
;)
Hey Now! ;)
haha I'm just saying.. ;)
Oh my... :P
-slaps your hands- No, bad.
You guys need to lighten up and learn to live a little...lol.
Relationships between people should be treated as more special than that.
i think it's because most people are afraid of commitment. not being together really gives you a lot less responsibly and..obligations.
"Hey, I don't like you like that, but let's have sex. And then when we see each other in public, we'll just be friends."

"Okay!"
ethics based on what?
Why does friends with benefits violate those?
here's what i dont get: if you like them enough 2 make out and stuff, why dont u like them enough 2 go out with them?
Good Question
I mean, I'd love to fuck a pornstar, but I wouldn't want to go out with one...
You can't just play with people's emotions like that. Sure, it's fun but eventually one of you will want more.

sex doesn't have to be about emotions, it can be just for fun

well, it's a risk. any kind of relationship is.
I'm talking about personally reconnecting them. It would be an inner-self struggle.
No, It messes up the Friendship. One person always gets hurt in the end.
I voted this up to make it 69.
Not to mention, with anything even slightly sexual, your soul and your emotions are involved much more than anyone wants to admit, or even realizes.
But don't you think that titles are just a bit immature? I mean, if you like eachother, you like eachother. Yay.
Well, I'm just put it out there, my ignorant little young thought-
That's whorey.
But they are. They are based on many things. Which ethics are we talking about?

Oh, oops. I thought you said "unacceptable." Sorry, had too much faith in the common person's ethics.
General ethics in how to behave in society.

But thats the thing! he is YOUR boyfriend. this Kid is JUST a Best friend.. My best friend

Humans have built in ethics that don't have to be based on anything.
