Casual sex

[RaisonD'etre]

What do you people think of casual sex or being friends with benefits? What do you think of women/men who sleep around a bit? Would you consider going steady with someone like that? Any experiences on the matter?

I myself am female and quite open for sex with friends (supposing that all parties are single etc). Consequently, I've had some sweet sexy times with a few of my friends. I have enjoyed these encounters a great deal. However, I know this is met with some scorn and would like to hear what others think of the subject.

I think it's just logical thinking. Everyone(with few exceptions of course) likes sex, and if two people on good terms want to have sex but aren't looking for a serious or necessarily lasting relationship... what's the problem?

Off Topic: Don't you just love it when someone has posted the exact same thing you were going to say thus saving you the trouble of taking the time to post your thought and saving space in the forum by not posting the same thing? It really is a beautiful thing.

 

[Quagmirian]

Sleeping around is considered by some, and partially me, to be a sign of moral weakness.

 

[CrashBang]

Nnnooooope. Not a fan. I love being in a committed relationship. Sex is great, big fan of sex, but it's uncomfortable and dull if it's not with someone you actually want to be with. I've gone out with girls for a few weeks and had sex with them if I think our relationship has potential. I had sex with my last girlfriend after about 2 weeks of going out because I knew we were going to have a great relationship, and we did for just over a year, but I'd never have sex with a girl if I didn't see any kind of future.

how about this for an answer:
can you be my friend?
but seriously, i'm all for it. i see no point in not being able to seduce and or blackmail everyone you know.
i have composed a musical number called:
"if you have a problem (just fuck it away (but make sure you use a condom, cos you dont want to end up like Ross and Rachel (yes i made a friends reference in my song title fuck you) and their little baby emma))(a guy called jeffs guide to friendship)" from my album 'Jeff (a guide to living life like jeff)'
i havent.

yet.

Personally, I probably wouldn't be able to pull off having sex with a friend and then not being awkward with them later or initially being serious. I equate sex with romance and feelings and stuff, so I probably couldn't get away with it. It wouldn't feel right to me.

But, I don't see anyone who CAN do it as anything bad, they just look at it differently than I do. No big deal. I'd also be fine with dating someone with that view, so long as they didn't mess around with anyone.

 

[crudus]

It can get messy quickly if you are not careful. I know that from experience. Other than that it is kind of nice.

 

[GeorgW]

I think it'd be great, even though I've never managed to do it without someone getting emotionally involved. Sex is great, and we all have needs to fulfil. Why not?

 

[RollForInitiative]

I generally have zero respect for people that do that, as I find they frequently have little respect for their own bodies either.

To each, their own, but I have very little interest in spending time with people like that.

 

[I_Sinanju _I]

In a way it could make certain friendships better.
Also damn fine way to blow of some steam (pun intended). Seriously haven't you ever had a friend that you had some serious sexual tension with? In the words of a wise source "Would you two just fuck and get it over with!?"

 

[ChildofGallifrey]

Well, the only time I've been in a FWB sort of situation was with an ex girlfriend shortly after we broke up, and the way we carried on we were still pretty much dating (doing stuff together, calling each other to say goodnight, etc.), just not saying it.

That being said, I see no problem with it. As long as it's two consenting adults, there's no harm in it. Hell, one could analogize it to a couple of friends playing a game: it's two grown people having fun. Nothing wrong there.

 

[Jaime_Wolf]

It's their own goddamn business regardless of whether anyone thinks it's ethical or not.

Personally, I don't see what could possibly be unethical about it.

Wanna be friends?

I'm jesting you lass.

In the course of my travels i've had a lot of casual relations.

Me and a lass I who used to hang around with us did share a bed on quite a few occasions. We were both single and neither of us wanted a relationship with each other or anyone else but both had "needs" so to speak and it didn't harm anyone so we thought why the hell not.

Fuck buddies we called them then no idea what they call it now.

But yeah, I used to come on leave from the army and we'd hook up while I was home then I went back she got up to what she did and I got up to what I did and no-one got hurt.

She got married the same year I did so it all ended well.

As for your question, no I don't see anything wrong with it at all.

Everyone likes sex and as long as no one is getting hurt in the process then there is nothing wrong at all with 2 friends having a bit of fun on the side.

 

[neonsword13-ops]

I'm sorry, I had to.

Anyway, I think it has it's up and down. Who knows, maybe your friend has some diseases he/she never knew about. So having sex Willy-Nilly can be pretty messy.

There was a great picture from Scott Pilgrim I would love to link...don't know how though...

Anyway, I personally don't condone sleeping with strangers, but I would be fine with a friends with benefits situation. If you know the person I think it would be OK.

 

[Hitokiri_Gensai]

i did before, but i dont any longer, got messy and ended up not being fun anymore

Beat me to it

 

[Smooth Operator]

Don't have problems with it, but I can't pull it off as I get attached very quickly.

As for my partners past adventures, they don't concern me, I once dove down that trench and it is a long and torturous route full of jealousy and in the end you notice none of it matters in the slightest.

 

[tobi the good boy]

Why don't I know any woman like you...

OT: I see nothing wrong with it, It seems like it could be beneficial in the long run (practice makes perfect)
