Nowadays anything can happen, even between you and your very close friend. things can happen unexpectedly or unconsciously. We make friends sometimes to others because of the benefits, i admit that but i don't leave them behind as if i just used them in a very selfish way. I admit that i used them but i would never leave them hanging. As a form of gratitude i show them that since the very first time i made friends with them i see to it i stick to the concept that we are friends. Friends help each other and that is what i do in return but with a limit. I can help them as far as i can but beyond that i think i cant risk things anymore. have you ever encounter this situation?? were you ever bothered by your conscious about it??

I have never really been through that set up and I wish I would never be. It is hard to be involved in such situation because in the long run, the women always suffers. And as a woman, I want to have stable relationship and not something that would last only for a particular moment.

Oh so you only make friends because of benefits? what kind of benefits? I think that you will have a lot of benefits if you have friends, like you have someone to share you happiness, someone to talk when you have some problems or just want to go out and hang with and many more. But it seems to me that you've abuse something from them or they're the one abuse you? well, anyways, i haven't encountered things like that with my friends. We are true friends. We never think about benefiting in a bad way.

I still havent experienced that situation having friends with benefit maybe because I was brought up from a very conservative family but i think nowadays its quite normal for people already to do such thing without any commitment. Unlike before where people were really so conservative, present generation have already changed maybe due to all the influences people are exposed to especially in movies. :)

So you mean to say that you became friends with someon to (ab)use that person for your own good? No I never did that. It would not even come pop up in my mind for 1 second. I also would never be friends with someone just because of some benefit(s). Why not? Because I don't like to do something back in return because of that reason. Because I feel quilty and I know I abuse that person. I think I would feel sick whole day abusing someone, knowing I am and not really like that person at all. Perhaps I can learn from you? How do you find those people you can abuse and even play you are liking them as a friend?
