friends with benefits?

It seems to me that the both of you are more than friends with benefits.  If you guys are not together as a couple, than neither one of you should be jealous of the other, unless there are more feelings involved.  \n\nSit down and have a serious talk with him.  See exactly where things stand with you.  If he doesn't want more than, just being friends.  I would suggest to take the benefits away or let him go...  Life is too short to waist every minute on someone who is not willing to talk about the future....

Friend you just hang out. Friend with benefits means you are having sex, but see other people.  Lover is you are just having sex with that one person.

I think eventually one of the "friends" is going to develop stronger feelings if they haven't already and are just acting like they don't.  It is hard to be intimate with someone without romantic attachments....maybe not at first but in the end.

Yes, Freinds with Benefits is a relationship, but not in the sense of sexually committed.  Freinds with Benefits are freinds who, along with playing golf, bowling, shopping, talking politics, religion and gossip, also relieve each others sexual tensions, partake in sexual experimentation, all without the exclusivity of a monogamous relationship.

I think friends with benefits is a good thing. Alot of people are afraid of committments these days. As long as everyone knows the rules then there should be no hurt feelings. If one person has stronger feelings than the other than that should be discussed so that no one gets hurt. i have had many fwb relationships over the years and have never lost a friend because of it when you both know the scoop. But there are also peolpe who are my friends who i would never sleep with because i would lose that friendship. Everyone concerned has to know the rules. We all have needs and sometimes need that itch scratched.

friends with benefits is simple. it's when 2 people are on a strictly friend relationship, but are able to make out (sometimes even have intercourse) without any sticky feelings attached. it's a bad way to accidentally get emotionally tied up with a guy (or girl) when they may not feel anything other then friendly feelings. it's a dangerous game and sometimes people take it the wrong way. either your friend with benefits or the people around you who see you and you friend together.

Seems doubtful that he will reciprocate the feelings based on what you mentioned so far. There comes the cliche statement "why buy the cow if you can get the milk for free". If he doesnt seem like he is interested in a future with you, he probably isn't. There are lots of men out there, GOOD ONES at that. Do not settle for someone like this that you started out as "friends with benefits". It will not turn out good- trust me, i've been there a few times in the past myself because us women tend to associate sex with love- remove the sex and see if there is something more between you.

Well he's using you...  Are you using him the same way?  If you've staked your heart in this guy, you might want to start moving on.  If you're having as much fun as he is though, just go with it.  A person's past CAN turn another person off of dating them.  That doesn't mean you can't be friends.  Or friends with benefits.  Seems like your guy wants to be friends with benefits.  Make sure you know and are clear about what you want and expect with him.  If you are both on the same page, great.  If not, you might need to work out a new arrangement...

Sounds like he wants a friend with benefits.  He's probably messing around on you.

I don't know how old you are, but you sound young. Friends with benefits are ok as long as you agree to stick with the terms. You know he doesn't feel the same way you do, so stop hooking up and step back for a while. Besides, he's hooking up with other girls and that puts you more at risk of catching something (even if you use a condom). Use your head instead of your heart on this one. Don't hook up anymore.

Okay you are in a BAD SITUATION and you need to set boundries.\n\nFirst of all, this guy does not believe you are friends with benefits, he believes you will eventually become more than that and is waiting for it to happen. If you go to vegas without him and hook up with some random guy he will be crushed because he wants more from the relationship.\n\nYou need to break up with him immediatly if you don't want to be involved with him. "Friends with benefits" is both retarded and volitie and one or both of the participants will wind up hurt in the long run because all it does is put off the inevitable break up. You need to break up with him and be firm in not getting back together. \n\nI can tell you, without a doubt he wants this relationship to be more and you need to break it off with him if you don't. Do not just go to vegas without him and hook up with another guy because it is totally wrong. You must tell him the truth even if it hurts him now because it will hurt much more later.\n\nBe an adult.

you're friends with benefits, and that's okay. the emotional stuff will come later or maybe not come at all.  have fun as long as you're careful. if you enjoy each other's company then that's a plus. the only disadvantage is if either one of you wants to get serious, and if one of you finds someone else.

if you're having sex then it's more than friends...if not then you are just friends.

Never ever waste your time on ANYONE who just wants to be friends. The only time you hear this is when you're looking for more than just a friend. If you want a friend, hey thats cool make use of this situation. However, if you're looking for more than that, don't waste your time because you'll just sit there watching the person you desire hooking up with everyone except you!

If you're friends are calling you a prude, then they aren't your friends.  A friend respects your morals and choices, even if they don't share the same ones.  Don't have sex to please your friends, you'll regret it later.  Stick to what you believe.

It's possible as long as neither one of you want a sexual relationship. Could build a stronger bond or could make things really difficult. I say you should go with how you really feel about it. A lot of people couldn't be friends after something like that, but if the both of you are mature about it, then I say go for it. Good luck.
