  • They "work" when everyone involved understands exactly what a friends with benefits is and what it isn't.

    A friends with benefits is a person you have sex with at your mutual convenience, but on a regular, on-going basis, for the sake of satisfying your sexual needs. It is NOT a stepping-stone towards a romantic relationship, it is NOT how you get a boyfriend, and the ONE RULE of having a friends with benefits is that, no matter how you feel, you will NOT expect your friends with benefits to have or develop romantic feelings towards you. friends with benefits is an ADVANCED adult relationship, suitable only for those who are emotionally mature and are capable of having casual sex without getting attached. It also requires that people are honest with themselves and their potential partners about their true intentions.

    If you are really looking for or wanting a romantic relationship with this person, then a friends with benefits is moving in the OPPOSITE direction - it will actually REDUCE the likelihood of ending up in a relationship. So, you need to figure out what you want before you get into either type of relationship.

    • I’d say just regular friends is what I want friends with benefits isn’t for me

    • Then you need to make sure you set clear boundaries and expectations, and maintain them. If you're going to be "just friends", you need to keep it JUST FRIENDS. No kissing, no touching, no making out, etc. Once you cross that line, you can't uncross it.
