Its great while it last. The biggest thing is most likely won't have a friend in the end. If you decide to do this just know that could be the outcome. Only because you should already have feelings for the person if its a real friend. I'm talking about a person you really know. Then the sex will be good and you will be into each other hard. It can work but you would have to keep everyone out of your business.

I did this when I was much younger and it was fun but I always found out someone always got hurt. And that someone was almost always the person who fell in love.

A lot of men can have sex without a connection but a lot of women can't and this is where the problems come from.

You have to find the women who can do this without feelings and when you do, you will most likely get hurt yourself.

It's a no win situation where everyone can get hurt. But it sure is fun when in the moment as long as both agree.

Look, you have to use common sense. You wouldn't do this with someone who is RELATIONSHIP MATERIAL

For example, the girl who is coming here tomorrow is not relationship material because

Because she has low self esteem
unemployed

BUT she has FWB qualities that is important like

Attractive
Pleasant
Has her own transportation


So you have to make sure they are npt relationshp

I've said it before but some things bear repeating. Grasshopper, I would rather walk into the spinning blades of a helicopter than be face to face with you in any social situation.

PS: If Assistant warrants a capital A, how come the words "stress" and "relief" don't warrant the same? And why is the "a" in "age" capitalized? Career counselors (even those who deal with unfortunate dropouts and ex-cons) should have some command of grammar in order to set an example.

Sex, in my opinion, is only for an exclusive relationship. I don't talk about it...if I am in a relationship, then, I would be in it all the way. I don't do anything halfway...and if I had sex with someone it would mean they were way more than friends.
Well said.

Since you've never had a "relationship" as you define it, you're hardly in a position to know the difference between "relationship material" and "skank".

As excruciating as it is to decipher your mangled grammar and as long as your nose grows, your description of this alleged FWB is painful at best. She has low self-esteem and is unemployed BUT she is attractive, pleasant and - most important - has her own transportation. The latter is of course a major plus for you as you don't even have to walk her to the bus stop.

Even if she exists (which I very much doubt) the money you pay her probably supplements her unemployment benefits and if she's "assisting" you then she probably has several other similar customers who, like you, are aging Grasshoppers who learn nothing and remain misogynistic outcasts. Sigh.

He misquoted the lyrics but, when you live a Walter Mitty existence, that's not an unusual faux pas.

Yeah, I know. I was thinking more about the music, which immediately came to mind when I read some of the words
