Really, doesn't it sound ideal to have sex with someone you care about without having to deal with all the obligations or emotional turmoil that can accompany a more committed relationship? While it goes without saying that having more sex is one of the advantages, there are other advantages and disadvantages that you might want to take into account

When you're in FWB mode, there's no need to stress about sounding overly eager or debating whether to call them or wait for them to call. According to sex therapist Dr. Ian Kerner, "theoretically, the friends-with-benefits situation allows you both to relax" It's a simple arrangement; you two are just friends having sex. Rape Sex Movies

Your priceless friendship is put in jeopardy in an FWB situation. Sex has a propensity to muddle your feelings, according to Kerner, even when we have no intention of letting it get messy. It's partly physiological because hormones released during sex cause you and your partner to bond emotionally, and it's partly psychological because we've been socialized to associate sex with romantic love through media like movies and television.

If they don't share your sentiments, it will put a great deal of strain on your friendship. This puts you in a position where you're much more likely to become emotionally involved, even when you don't intend to. You are not required to speak with their family or even call them if you don't want to. When a relationship isn't what you want, it may be because you want to concentrate on your career, you know you're moving to a new city, or you just want to be single, says Kerner.

It may seem like the best option at the time to be able to have unrestricted sex with someone you know and feel comfortable around. Your FWB is not the best choice for a date to go to a friend's wedding. Your FWB is not the best choice if you're looking for someone to cry on when you've had a bad day. Your FWB is not the ideal companion if you want to curl up on the couch.

 Friends with benefits shouldn't be overly relied upon by definition, according to Kerner. Otherwise, it enters the "relationship" zone. You must be extremely restrained in your interactions with your FWB in order to strike the right balance on this sometimes-difficult tightrope. Since there is nothing stopping you from looking for a long-term partner while having sex with your current significant other, it appeals to women who are single.

If it is obvious that this is what you are doing, Kerner claims that the rules of friends with benefits state that there are actually no restrictions. That implies that neither of you is required to even let the other know if you see someone else. While you continue to find yours, you are left to continue looking for other partners, FWBs, or whatever.

Your wandering eye will likely be examining any available potential lovers in addition to your other options. That implies that once they find someone they want to be committed to, you'll lose your FWB. According to Kerner, depending on how long an FWB relationship lasts, this can be a significant blow to the ego. Even if you try to convince yourself that it's just sex with a friend, there are still egos involved.

Even if you don't want your FWB to be a long-term relationship, you might find yourself wondering what the other person has that you don't. That won't boost your self-assurance. Having sex with a friend can feel much less risky emotionally if you've been hurt in love. According to Kerner, having sex with a friend occasionally gives you the freedom to act in ways you might not be able to with a more intimate partner. With them, you might feel more at ease and be able to experiment with different sex scenarios that you might otherwise be too nervous to try. Want more on XHUB.TV
