Can you be friends with benefits with an ex?

To be honest with you I don't know if I would want that I don't think that I would

One of the most beautiful things about friends with benefits. Yes it is brand new and there are no rules except for you can't say I love you miss you and I want you if one of those are said that you have to break up LOL and end it..

I've had friends with benefits as a matter of fact. I had 3 going at the same time.. all three started about the same time and ended at the same time..

. It took me 7 months to get my ex out of my house. Put her on the airplane and sent her back to Colorado where her mom lives.

Around the 12th month two separate times two different girls her friends had come over to my house and we started talking and they both asked me if I wanted to go out on a date I told them no I hated girls.. lol.

That 7 months kicked my ass and I didn't want to be around girls for a long time...

But joking with them after they asked me out and I said no I said not that you want to become friends with benefits and actually all three because the same thing happened again one of my friends around the 12th month too ask me if I wanted to go out I said no let her too I said not unless you want to become friends with benefits and all three said yes and I said okay LOL

Damn how was I going to pull this off but I did very well

In between the 15th and 16th month I heard that my ex was coming back to town and I had a chance to sell my house so I did I didn't even tell the three friends with benefits where I was moving to because I did not want my ex to find me. So my ex did not find me and I ended all three of my friends with benefits. But I would have never ever got back with my ex and she changed me it took me a long time to find myself again.

But one of the best parts about it was that you talk about it "your friends with benefits." .. you both agree upon it... and you both make it happen.. you are true friends you can say and do anything you want knowing that you are friend.

there is a special bond there as a matter of fact all three of those relationships were better than any relationship I've ever been in kinda of.. because of that Bond we had could actually be yourself say what you wanted to say without any repercussion because you know it's a joke or something smart ass but fun... And that bond that commitment that making love that f****** that making sure that girl is pleased before we leave and the next time happens was some of the best experiences...
But with an ex I don't think it would be that much fun because no matter what you say they're always going to have a comeback for it or they're going to say well remember this or remember that or the be some kind of emotion behind it instead of just a deep friendship.. . And happiness LOL

Not really. You just fall back into routines and half assed relationships

I mean if you wanna risk setting yourself up to get hurt even more when they find a new partner, otherwise it's a bad idea

Account · Accepted Answer

No. I do not even like them anymore. How can I sleep with someone I don't even like? I find that impossible to understand.

Finchie40 · Answer

If you both broke up on mutual terms and you are both on the same page with things , you can , but if there is any resentments or issues you are best not to at all

MrOracle · Answer

Technically you can, but most people won't do it well, especially if one still has romantic feelings for the other. Which is usually the case.

Billlewis · Answer

Sure. I've done that a couple of times, although usually by that time, you've pretty much had your fill of each other, so it probably wouldn't be an every day type of thing unless you're both horny as hell. But, yeah, I'd say so.

SugarSugarplum · Answer

Why would you want to do that? Let's say the right person comes along in two months and you're still weekend-boffing your ex. That's going to repulse them right away.

Friends with benefits doesn't exist, only sin exists. Why be evil in the sight of Jesus. We are all sinners, lets repent!

thatkawaiiemogirly · Answer

Ewww nooo!!! I can be friends with benefits with nobody period!

ClaircognizantEmpath · Answer

no, no, no and no... anyone who believes it is a benefit is a fool..

DopeTurtle · Answer

Is it possible? Of course it is. Is it a wise decision? Eh not really but it’s not my place to judge. I just wouldn’t recommend it

Tomisworthless · Answer

Sounds like a case of familiar dick. Whenever your horny you call upon a previous partner because of your shared history making sex less anxious with a new mate

ariadneR · Answer

Depends on the person, but personally I wouldn't.  Too much drama

Nifrayu · Answer

Of course you can. There's nothing stopping that from being possible.
