I have FWB currently and He’s also my Best Friend… it’s Less Complicated that a Relationship for Me at Least

[WA****]

I would kill to have a friend with benefits. I would kill to have a long-term relationship. I would kill for some affection right now. But friends with benefit sounds really good.

I have a real problem with the term FWB. No one has been willing to put any effort into the main word “friends”. A the benefit aspect it based on convenience. There’s no quality time spent, there is little to no connection or intimacy. I don’t feel valued, I don’t feel I’m a priority, I’m not getting back what I’m putting in. Subconsciously I people please ie: giving someone priority like answering messages, sending pictures and videos upon request, being available or making availability for people. I take more consideration for others because that’s who I am. I never want to hurt anyone or put anyone through similar situations I’ve been through. FWB for me has a NSA concept it lacks depth, emotions, connection. I have much more value to be convent moment of release. There’s a real lack of communication, honesty, and respect in the FWB dynamic.

@Musclemommy88 that's a term y'all created and could very well mean what you decide it means ultimately its beneficial when it's convenient to you, had a couple but I relocated. Take it however y'all like but I've always been a friend and always provided for that friend if I didn't have it I had no problem saying it maybe this new generation term of FWB means something different now, like Cash if thats the case may as well call an escort

Many people just want the benefit without the friends

Here's what you can do that's guaranteed to solve your problems: place an ad in the local rag that reads; "If you like piña coladas & gettin' caught in the rain. If you're not into yoga; if you have half a brain. If you like makin' love at midnight in the dunes on the cape. Then I'm the love that you've looked for, write to me and escape." Guaranteed to work every time, dude. And don't worry about her—let's just say she was well taken care of !-)

If I may comment from the woman's point of view... apologies if this is not welcome. Also it may not agree with everyone. Everyone is different and unique.

I'm solo poly. If you're not familiar basically it means I am single but like to be involved in more than one connection.
I am also demisexual, meaning I like my brain engaged before I decide if you're attractive.

You would need to get the attention of those who are open to it for themselves.

That unfortunately that narrows the field of opportunities a lot.
Then take into consideration you need to basically one up everyone else's attempts for her attention.
Which means don't just say nice kitties or anything sexual.
If she's genuinely interested it will come around in time. Patient but if a irrestible bold and funny line comes to mind USE IT and own it even if it fails. Joke about the fail.
Most importantly engage in a full back and forth convo.

😁😁😁😁😁😁 yes please

[sh****]

That is a hard question. I'd talk to the wife and state wishes and concerns and needs if she can't then keep searching.

Because woman have all the options in the world. They would rather choose someone single than taken. For many reasons. Though us taken guys are usually the ones without drama.

[sa****]

I think if both partners agree and have boundaries it can work for all parties. I dont believe in sleeping with women behind her back let her know you want physical sex and you need it as a human being. Let the world be your oyster...lol

[Go****]

Location location location more and more sites have incorporated couples looking for men and vice versa. I like xdating or doublelist.

[Go****]

I'm not married btw ...I am constantly being asked if I have friends willing to join... which is odd cuz most ladies can't handle me by myself.... lol

Love to have a fwb

[ch****]

I want a fwb but every time I try it something happens and sh*t gets wired

[Se****]

Yesss

[lu****]

Longisland.. you could be describing my own life to a tee.. lol wish I had an answer for that one other than women often ( but not all) are far more reserved than men when it comes to sexuality and expressing it.
Good luck..

Women are water and men are thirsty.

[si****]

I am struggling with this!! I feel like I’m an attractive guy but I can’t seem to get any attention as a married man looking for FWB.

[ka****]

I'm a straight, single man, looking for a FWB. After about 10 days on here, Im still digging

[Deleted Member]

I get the feeling that there are far more men than women on the site. And many of the women are only on here for all the male attention they can get. What you do get is probably rather low effort and exceedingly high expectations. So, it's really slim pickings, if you're looking for any practical FWB relationships.

[Pa****]

Well the question of having friends with benefits, do they know you're married? And does your spouse know you're looking for it? I mean filling the gap between your loved one as a married person and finding somebody to be let's just say a concubine can be a dynamic of saying who is this other person to you and who you will be going home to. If you're going over to your FWB. Is it clear that you're going home afterwards or are you sleeping over the fwb's home?
