Friends with benefits?

Friends with benefits?


Are there people out there that can really hold true to that phrase? Is there a time limit to where the friend wants more than just benefits?

I've had a few female friends with benefits before and they always want more after a while. I am always honest with my intentions and what I want in the "relationship". I understand that if you are spending time with a person then after while you become attached. I'm just looking for a woman that will hold true to the "friends with benefits" concept. If you are out there then please feel free to drop me a line.

Have faith, we're out there and looking for the same thing you are I'm a fan of the longterm FWB, and am going on my longest stretch of almost two years with one friend and 9 months with the other. It's obviously not something that will last forever, eventually you move on and become friends without the benefits. But for these types of relationships to work there really is no such thing as trying to turn it into something more. That would just mess up a perfect thing

I've also found that if you're clear from the beginning what it is you're looking for and both people are on the same page and willing to communicate openly, it is possible to maintain a longterm FWB without worry. I put what NSA means to me in my profile and always refer potential friends to that list to see if we really are looking for the same thing. Good luck to you, keep looking

I know you must be honest from the beginning and make sure both people are on the same page. Thats exactly what I do every time. I don't think it matters anymore if I'm straight up honest with them. Do women think they can really change my mind and get me to commit to a relationship?

I feel bad sometimes cause I can tell when a woman is becoming attached. Let me say why I only want a friend with benefits. I play professional sports and I travel out of the country for 7-9 months out of the year. Its difficult for me to have a girlfriend so I don't want to put a woman through that either. I would love to have a girlfriend right now but i travel way too much. I explain this reason when I get involved but it seems to go in one ear and out the other. Sometimes i get girls that understand my situation and everything is ok. I just don't want any feeling to be hurt.

Like I said before, if you ladies are out there then please drop me a line.
