Hmmm. did i encounter a similar discussion before? i guess i did. the difference of that is the person really did experience that. and she was really nice, the guy must have been lucky just to treat her as a friend. but she got curious because she's been treated like a girlfriend already..for me, i don't mind but i don't think it will happened to me

i dont really agree with it, because someome will always end getting emotional involve one way or the other. my thing why not just be together as a couple but each of their own, i dont judge anyone for it

You can never say never...I had always been against the friends with benefits thing because in my opinion you are either a couple or you are not...That is until I met my husband. He is a few years younger than me and he came into my life at a time when I didn’t think I was ready for a relationship but the attraction was so great that we ended up in one of those ‘friends with benefits’ situations for quite a while until I gave in when he mentioned the ‘L’ word! (LOL) and here we are with a mortgage and a kid! I believe that people should do what is right for them and sometimes friendship is all folks can share and that is okay because my belief is that everyone has the right to live as they see fit as long as it doesn’t hurt anyone else. The important thing is that both parties are on the same page and one is not expecting more than what the other is able to give.

Hello, these kinds of relationships sometimes can be good. If one gets too involved and the other one doesn't it can become complicated.I had one then he moved away to go to college and he kept in touch with me. I met my b/f that I have now when my friend was away in college.He knew I wouldn't cheat on my b/f and he also knew I wouldn't let him cheat if he had a g/f since that is what messed up my marriage.He and I can stay friends but it won't be the same as it was.
