If your friend wanted to engage in a one night stand with you, how would you react?

[Gedaria]

I can see this as a situation I've experienced, she was married and children.
We were really good friends, I was giving her a lift home, she grabbed hold of my arm and nearly in tears..
I went to a cafe with her and have a chat.
The story she told me I was nearly in tears.
I said sex would not change anything only make it more complicated..
Admittedly it was difficult not to give into her. We ended up at my house. We kissed, but managed to get her to go to bed , thankfully step daughter came in which made things a little easier.

[TeeBar]

The most important thing is to figure out , "Why now?"
If they are coming off of a traumatic experience or event, it could be rebound sex, which usually turns out later to be full of regret and humiliation.
If it is a true case of exploding horniness that can no longer be suppressed and you are agreeable, then "Let the show begin!".

[Rei02]

There is no formula, in the end depends on whether you feel some kind of attraction towards him/her, or not, and in your perspective about intimating with someone in a sexual way: is it a big deal or is it just meh?

[araeyahlove]

having sex with someone you care about can unlock feelings that might not have been there before. especially a close friend just be careful you might catch yourself a soul tie

[Anonymous]

"Sorry but I'm not in mood for sex"
However my female friend didn't ask, she grabbed my dick as we both were drunk and there was point of no return. She needed what I had and It was one time thing, a favor for a friend I know since years.
I was a little bit afraid that our friendship ends or she starts to think we are couple, but this wasn't the case. After some time everything normalized. Few months later she coupled me with my current partner.
Of course there are people who play a time long your friend just to get you as partner, but those people don't hesitate too long. Someone who knows you since years and you did a lot of things together prefers to be your friend than a lover.

I've already done it with a few friends. Most of them friends with benefits. The sex was pretty good and with all of my partners both of us felt comfortable. But we were friends. There wasn't love attachment. So with each we would end things after a few fucks or whatever. Still on good terms with all of them. Id say maybe I've had sex with 1 casual friend and dry humping to orgasm 1 best friend (just underwear). Then with my very best friend I spooned her on Thanksgiving night and we slept together without sex. 🤷🏾‍♂️

[MrCalypso]

Depends on the type of relationship. Very close female friends no. I suppose a normal friend yes.

I can't tell you how many times I have had sex with many of my female friends. Its been a lot, other than very close friendships, I only decline ones I know there will be issues with etc. But for the most part I have a great fuck buddy radar and have never had issues with any friend I've had sex with ( most multiple times) and I've probably had sex with 30 friends out of the 60 or so I've had sex with.

[AdithyaR]

Absolutely not. I'm very particular about stuff like that and I'm not into one night stands cause I can't do it without any romantic feelings and emotional connection involved. And my close friends are not the ones who I'm gonna have those feelings for, so..

[JackofSpades]

I personally don't see much if a difference between a girlfriend and an friends with benefits but I might just be weird that way.

Assuming I felt the same way I'd probably take her up on it.

Assuming I didn't I'd try to turn her down as politely as possible and try to stay friends.

[Dweezil]

I am a straight guy. But when I was like 14 and saw some nice looking dicks in the high school locker room I wondered how it would feel to suck another guys dick. Haven't done it yet.

I did have what I thought was a one nighter with a girl I knew from the neighborhood. Big mistake. She caught feelings for me. Still feel bad about that.

I have had a couple more one nighters since. I have always been straight forward with them. We might Fuck a couple times but without catching feelings.

[doctord00m]

I think you're misunderstanding the term. "One night stand" means to have sex with a stranger, ie, someone that you met that same night, with the intention of never seeing him or her again. So even having sex the same night and then continuing the relationship as a boyfriend girlfriend, would also not meet the criteria.

[AFellowWeeb]

First of all, i dont believe in people being ''best friends'', close friends, maybe, second, i dont see myself being close to a girl at that point, and being ''best friends'' with, so, this means it had to be a guy, and since im not into that type of swords fight, its a hard pass for me

[Agape93]

I’ll just laugh lol we had sex what, two weeks ago?

[Elsa143]

NO ! I will warn him by saying "don't talk to me like that again" and avoid this topic. If I sense some hidden motives again, I will remove him from my best buddy list or ghost him. Because I was focused on genuine friendship and he was viewing me as an answer to satisfy his inner demons need.
Men are more superficial and sex hungry that's why more incels saying yes. We girls got self respect, loyalty and morals.

[r_r_g]

It's tricky. Unlike many (women) out there, I'd only ever be friends with opposite sex IF I found them sexually attractive enough. Not necessarily super hot, but sexy enough.
So, in that sense - yes, by all means. That's the whole point of friendship as far as I go.

[EaterPeter]

As a guy I woukd like it. Depends on which one of my friend. It's going to turn into something more than you bargain for. Save the heart ache to one of you at least. If it happens in the heat of the moments it happens. Please don't go in knowingly. You might regret it one way or other. I would say go for it. You are going to regret it either way so why not. Sorry double minded.

[genericname85]

if i thought she was attractive, i may probably say yes. cause in my experience, once someone catches feelings, the "friendship" is ruined either way, so might as well have all the fun and not just the depressing bits.

[CriticalDiscourse]

I'd say no, that my friendship doesn't automatically mean that they have sexual access to me. And we probably wouldn't be friends anymore.

[volleyball_bigirl]

Depends on the friend but I've done it and it usually is fun as long as you have some serious talking before and after.

[guesswhoseback]

If a guy has a girl referring to him “as her best friend” (who isn’t his wife/girlfriend) then he’s got reevaluate his ball size and move the f*ck on.

Straight men never refer to women as “best friends” when it’s platonic and there is a reason for it.

[Dongtai]

I have a friend I want to have one night stand with but I’m afraid to ask her. I don’t want to hurt her feelings.

[FeralChihuahua]

He’s my best friend for a reason. Hard pass and I would probably stop talking to them

[FriendlyEnigma]

Everything feels like it's coming at me 100 mph right now, and i only have shreds of family left. My friends are really all i have, i don't wanna risk losing any of the people who care about me. Plus hookup culture is a joke

[menina]

I would freak out for sure and I would decline it. I don't do one night stands and I'm pretty sure this situation would ruin our friendship.

[pervertedjester]

Might take me a day or two to sort out the emotions involved with that offer before I answered. I've done it a few times and we are all still friends, just depends on the strength of the hearts and minds of those involved.

[loveslongnails]

That's already happened to me in my college days. No big deal. I didn't figure I'd be in touch with hardly any of my college friends anyway, so we did it.

[DanaeAdam5]

Decline. I'm not attracted like that to my best friend and if she suggested it again I would have to end our friendship

[19magic]

I've had friends come on to me and I've rejected them and it made the friendship a bit awkward for awhile and then it went almost back to normal but everyone respected me enough not to ask twice otherwise I'd have gotten really angry

[WesBrewer]

I would laugh at them and say they should know me well enough that I would say no to them.

[art84]

If I had best friend who was a girl and she confessed wanting a one night stand, I would be surprised. I think the only way I would go through it if she was ok with it. It could lead to a relationship down the line depending what happens.

[naraku]

I would have a chat to her and try to find out why she thinks it's a good idea considering thing's could go south after.

I'm probably likely to decline no matter though.

[KiPanther]

I honestly would as long as it’s just the one night and if we both have the capability to move on afterwards and still be friends

[Daniel3035]

If I found her attractive sure. To me female friends are also kinda friends with benefits if she's down I'm down we both need sex it's healthy so yolo.

[justaspacerockthing]

considering my best friend is my ex,, who i have feelings for still,,, i'd say no. i want to do things with him- but that seems too risky for me right now. we'd have to talk,, but maybe other arrangements could be made ;)

[politegent]

Like moving from the back seat now your up front next to that person. Back seat.. talk a lot.. front seat talk and touch now. If your ready it works.. if not.. talking slows way down.

[RawIronhide]

I'd feel hurt. You mean you just want to fuck me and forget about taking the relationship seriously or advancing to the next step? So you just want to use my body for a night? ouch

[I-have-a-biscuit]

Well my best friend is my girlfriend so to end it at one night stand it'll be sad 😂

[SomeGuyCalledTom]

Sure, I've wanted to sleep with most of my female friends at one point or another.

[summiter]

If I was not in a committed relationship with another girl at the time I probably would. I would make sure we talked about birth control first and discussed the fact that sex would change our friendship.

[gangster123]

It’s wrong... then we don’t say him or her friend anymore..

[allaboutyou2]

I have done it before, certain friends can keep it just casual, you have to pick and choose, it could ruin the friendship.

[Twalli]

Decline politely, but not end the friendship. If I wasn't dating anyone I would be willing to try a relationship with her.

[Sweetener_]

Shocked that he had the audacity to ask that question.

[yourusual15yrold]

well tbh I'd ask myself whether I like them like that or find them attractive in any sorta way. considering they're my best friend or at least a very close friend I wouldn't wanna jeopardize our friendship so I would suggest you talk it out with them and do what's best.

[Rippersavage]

No I wouldn't, I would never hook-up with a friend (male or female)

[Iron_Man]

I don’t have female friends they are either my girlfriend or not

[crmoore]

Generally speaking, I'd decline it, but in a respectful way. But depending on certain circumstances, I might accept it. Like if she was really in need of some affection or something like that.

[BlondeGoneWild]

I already have with a lot of my friends. I’d be down for it

[Paul09]

I would be curious, I might want to. But it would never be that easy. No strings attached! Yeah right.

[Clarke498]

More than that? Yes!
Just that? No i don't think so. Would hurt being teased with that and not being able to keep it.

[CurlyGirl42]

my best friend knows how I feel about being seen as a sex object. So they would definitely lose some points in how high I see them as a friend.

[Jwags]

It depends who it was. If a female, maybe if we had a long discussion about the expectations ahead of time

[jirwin7979]

i would ask her if she was sure and if she said yes than take my time with her and make sure it was the best she had

[ItsTheNephilim]

No best friend here. But if any friend of mine makes such a confession to me, they're out.

[IAMNativeson87]

For me, it likely could not happen. Most friends are guys and those who aren't, I just dont perceive them in that manner. Kinda like doing it with my sister...🤢🤮

[HawkPerception]

If I'm single, and I'm attracted to my friend, I don't see why not. Especially if she initiated.

Right now I'm in a relatiomship, so I'd never.

[Torari]

I have no hot female friends, only aquatances, because if a girl is hot I want more or nothing.

But if I had a hot female friend, sure. Sex is sex.

[clampfan101]

Say no and try to still be friends. If they kept bringing it up, I’d have to let them go.

[AmeerX]

I don't want to take advantage of her. If she wants it to be a long term thing then I am fine

[ND4SPD31]

I couldn’t help it if she was a female friend and I found her attractive and she wanted to have sex with me, I’d probably give in. But if it was as good as I was anticipating, I’d probably want more.

[Synikal]

Had female friends who offered. Done it. No complaints on my end as it happened more than once. I do recommend setting rules beforehand.

[HATR3D]

Nope, from the sounds of it he or she has been thinking about it for a while meaning he or she didn't value you as a friend

[SavageGirl101]

I would drop them cause they just ruined the whole friendship 💀

[CubaPirate]

I'd like to say respectfully decline. But if she was really hot it would be hard not to succumb to temptation
