If you decide to be friends after sex, can this friendship last?
Miss_cupcakesXper 1
So you are friends with a guy and you start flirting to the point you decide to have sex with each other. Afterwards you both mutually decide that you’re better off as being friends. Over the coming months you become best friends, spending time together but platonically. Can this friendship last? Or is the fact you once slept together going to complicate things at some point?

Wow! What a response for my first ever question. I’m taking all the opinions on board and you’ve given me lots to think about.. thank you to you all! 😘
I am friends with many girls I have met and fucked, friends with benefits. I ENJOY THEIR COMPANY, I also enjoy fucking them. Some of us fuck every week or even more. We both enjoy our friendships, but enjoy fucking just as much.

I think it’s definitely possible. For sure once the guy has another woman to be intimate with. Good luck!

I think the fact that you've already slept together actually simplifies things. The sexual tension that stresses a platonic relationship is gone.

If you each work on it and accept each other.

It depends. If feelings have just faded over time yes. Even a drunken one night stand can be dealt with.
But if sex, or other items, was the goal kind of thing for one partner. That might be a lot tougher.

It'll be tough, but it is possible. At least from my experience.

if we were having sex and then the girl said she just wanted to be platonic i would just move on and stop talking to her.

I think it depends on the people involved. Sometimes emotions may be come too much. If you both mutually 100% agree it could be fine. But if one of the two does want more then it could be a problem

I think in most cases it makes things awkward to be friends after being intimate unless there are no “feelings” anymore.

All my friends are guys and I have some history with many of them. It’s possible to go back to just being friends, but sex is always on the table. We can not fuck for years, but if he’s lonely and I’m there then it’s really possible we’ll end up having sex.

That’s how I wonder if what will happen with us- at the moment it’s all quite recent but in time I think perhaps it could happen again!

Omg, that's me and 😀
I think the friendship would end in the long run.
No, because you're both gonna want more.
