Going tangental to a similar thread...what type of situations or environments do Friend With Benefits (FWB) usually occur?

 

I would guess it usually happens when the woman really likes/loves the man and he doesn't really reciprocate emotionally. Ergo, she is good enough to have sexual relations with but not good enough to get emotionally involved with.

 

I mean it would be extremely difficult for FWB to occur when the man likes the woman but she doesn't like him back, innit? In that case she most likely puts him in the friends zone.

 

What say you? :p

oooorrrr...... they both like each other, but maybe a mutual friend is interested in either party... and then they continue to be friends and a kiss , then a this, then a that.... then you happen to run into each other later- both single AND you both still like each other but live an hour away.... are in slightly different places........ maybe one feels intimidated by the other- so will not ask that person ask (but if they had, the other would have loved to!).....

 

i think slightly missed or misunderstood cues/ differences in location, place in life, even social/economic/racial/religious stature play apart.......

 

-just a thought though.

I say that as long as the 'exclusivity' hasn't been 'established' it remained a FWB relationship..

From what I can gather, a friends with benefits relationship requires both parties to be attracted to each other. In essence though only the woman needs to be attracted to the man but I digress.

 

Somehow they end up having sex. I've never got this far so I don't know it happens.

 

For some reason one or both parties does not want to have a relationship with the other person. Instead of them moving on to the dating phase or going their separate ways, they keep having sex.

 

So from what I see, the sex happens first, then question of "what are we" comes up. Or the question might not come up and the relationship may drift one way or another. No matter what the sex has to happen first.

quite, but we're all aware that women are much more selective about whom they sleep with

Sometimes people are physically attracted to one another but there's no real connection... making a FWB situation a possibility if they're the type that go for that kind of thing.

Hm... I'm not feeling tons of chemistry here, Isolde. I'm sure you aren't either. Where do you want to meet?

Yup, that's why I was confused on how the sex actually happens.

Heh you edited your post to replace chemistry with connection.

 

So a woman can have sex with a guy she doesn't have a connection with? I guess the next question, what is a connection. I'm guessing that if she had a connection with the guy but there was no attraction, the sex would not happen?

So true! The but is one of the most attractive features, and two attractive buts make for a great FWB arrangement.

I had a women offer me a FWB relationship and her reason was she didn't want a serious relationship, and usually took care of herself with toys, but wanted the real thing every now and then. She would let me know when she wanted me by telling me she wanted a dinner date ( code words for, "I want you" ). I declined because a FWB was not what I was looking for.:eek:
