Here is another in agreement. It is good to have friends and it can be even better to have benefits so long as both parties can live with it.
Some times one side or the other wants more then the other can give and you can end up losing a friend which is never good.

I think a lot of us look for something more then a one nighter. The comfort of being with a friend who knows you well is much better.

So I am going to take a moment to sit back and enjoy the memories of the few I have been luck enough to consider FWB.

There you go
That's all and none of it tragic.

I've had a FWB relationship with a woman from my home state. I no longer live there but we have remained friends and we talk to each other a few times a week or text. I love her but we aren't suited for more than the sexual aspect and she knows this but we enjoy each other immensely when I am up north or she comes south.

Please, just call me diggy.

I had a regular FWB that lasted quite sometime, we pretty much followed your first post, more or less. At the present time I'm not totally sure whether or not I'm in one now, given we 'pledged' to be only with one another, but here's the kicker, my old regular FWB brought her too me and seems how we're on the outts, it has me thinking: are we really a couple or a fling

Friendship is a great foundation for any relationship. Including one with sex. Sometimes I feel, men the short shift. I love hanging out, talking, cuddling, etc. Making a connection is not always about fucking. There is definitely a place for that, but it's not the ONLY thing guys think about.

Great post! I agree and feel the same way. A friend that you afford the courtesies as you would a close friend. In deference to FWB, and due to the size of the corpus collosum ( the part of the brain between the right and left hemispheres), the genders have a biological reason for different approaches. Women can more easily use both hemispheres of the brain simultaneously, thereby having the ability to be logical even when emotional.

Men tend to use one side at a time, either logical thinking or for feeling. Men must achieve goals independently to feel good about themselves, to feel power, competence and accomplishment.

Women tend to share w/ others through their feelings and the quality of relationships to feel good about themselves. Most often men don't intuit the differences on what a friendship means to a woman and sometimes explaining to a man what type of courtesies you would expect could be taken wrong and misread your intentions.

Their are a lot of men that are very intuitive and have learned through long relationships what is expected.

You can see some of the difference in approaches in some of what men blog about and what women blog about.

It's not turning out well, I can see it now: Fuck me one more time, now piss off, only thing ya were good for is a fuck...

Happens, sorry too say, far too often.

I like having someone beside me and to live my life with and share the days together, but as stuff gets out of control and too dramatic to quickly, I can see the writing o the Wall.
