Since its so hard for most guys to find FWB or FB, I would think it would actually make sense to find a regular reasonably priced escort to see regularly so that a guy can take his time to find a woman. Or are most other guys already doing this? For me the hormones kind of compeled me to get into a relationship before I was ready becuase I was not willing to be involentarily celibate for long periods. All you hear is women complaining about men wanting sex so its clear that much fewer women want a FWB or FB type thing and I dont know too many guys that like using their right hand for over a year trying to ferret out his ideal match.

Some of them are left-handed.

Most women do not want to settle for being a FWB or FB.

Most men of power who understand what the game is really about have this, yes. And they have mistresses, once in a "relationship" given the fickleness of women and BS problems that inhibit intimacy. Not sure why the question is even being asked: uh, "yes." Don't hesitate.

That's why the OP is suggesting a solution for a guy to hold out longer in his search to find one.

Isn't it obvious, OP? Do you really need to ask us?

I know a guy who does something like.that, he knows a girl who goes to his place every so often and takes care of him and he pays her, he seems ok with that arrangement so I guess it can work for the right people.

It may work but then it may make it harder to ever be satisfied with one woman since you always have one on the back burner.

Ask yourself if the woman you really want would be okay with a man who pays for sex. Perhaps she would be, but really evaluate it honestly. Realistically, would it be consistent for such a woman to want a man who has done this?

Perhaps you think she will never know...but the attitudes which leads to these choices will be known, and experiences can forever alter us.

Most women don't like involuntary celibacy either, but they also may not see sex as a casual thing to share with just anyone, hence not wanting FWB or FB situations. Cultivating some self-control and patience is something that benefits you when you finally do find a relationship. When the focus is on what you are getting, your pleasure, and your needs, to the point of making sex a transaction, then that selfishness will carry into your relationship and likely cause problems.

I think there is a line between patience and just wasting time you cant get back sitting around masterbating to porn. Where is that dry spell line, 4 months, 6 months a year, 2 years. People that met their soul mate in high school or early 20's might have a harder time understanding.
