I was explaining to her yesterday that when you are in a friends with Benefits situation you don't talk about negative things to each other like

stressful job
family drama
Financial problems


You pretty much hook up to relax with each other and have fun with each other and save the negative conversation for people like your family. So she then says...."Well that means it's a Fake relationship"

DUH!!!-LOL What else did she think Friends with benefits was? Then she says....."So basically he is just a penis with eyes?

YUP! Anyone Agree or Disagree?

Don't like them. But yes some people I knew in the past did this.

I disagree. What you are talking about is a bootie call. Friends with Benefits means just that: you are friends, with the added benefit of having sex with each other.

FWB just means that you don't want a romantic relationship with each other, i.e. going out on dates, celebrating anniversaries, etc.

Neither one is wrong, but if you want Friends with Benefits then you need to expect to actually be a friend.

Then she's just a wet, warm hole where you get to stick it in. You should just call her "Bennie" - short for "Benefits." You don't get to call her a friend at that point.

TV, you have a weird definition of friends.

You are just talking about a booty call or hookup.

Friends with benefits implies you are actually friends.
