Sexual Relationships 
Sexual Health 
That's if you can call it "Friends with Benefits". He doesn't like calling it that but he also can't have a committed relationship for genuine reasons and neither can I really (bad break up). He wanted to be more than friends with benefits but less than a girlfriend (how does that work?).
Anywaaaaay... this take is about what I've learnt so far, what the situation entails and how it's different to relationships, for me personally, so you guys could get some insight of how it works and if it'd work for you.
Disclaimer: This is a personal account of my experiences. Every relationship is different and if you're a guy, it will likely be different for you.
Totally Open
I can tell him anything because there's nothing riding on what I tell him, like a relationship. I won't be comfortable telling a guy I hope to be in a relationship with about a lot of stuff because I'd worry about scaring him off! This guy doesn't know anyone I know and has no reason to tell others anything I tell him. I don't care what he thinks of me because I know he'll still want to sleep with me (shallow I know) and if he did judge and decided to not talk to me again, I wouldn't care. In fact, we had one fall out and we didn't speak to each other for about 5 months and it didn't bother either of us. It's all really relaxed.
Good Sex
Sex is really good, if you've tried out a few people before you meet the person. I've slept with a few guys since I had the break up and this guy performs exactly how I like in bed, whilst others did not. Every time I see him, I know great sex is soon to come! It's much better than dating someone for months, only to realise they're not good in bed.
Lies
They will lie to your face. They will act like they care about your life and hobbies but you'll soon find out they've not remembered any of it and you've got no obligation to remember anything about them either. There's no need for them to remember anything about you. They might say you're really hot even if they think you're average, just so they get sex again. You should take everything they say with a pinch of salt and assume they don't mean it.
Respect
You do still get respect in friend with benefits relationships and you should still expect respect, even in this situation. They should still respect your boundaries in sex. The guy I'm with doesn't like me referring to myself as a 'whore' as a joke. He respects me as the young woman I am and treats me like he would a girlfriend, even holding my hand, just without the commitment and a few other parts. If I tell him I'm talking to or seeing a guy, he totally respects it and backs away. He doesn't get clingy/jealous at all.
A friends with benefits situation can be complicated but it's only as complicated as you make it.
If you're a particularly sensitive person, take rejection badly, expect love/attention constantly and /or are not a very assertive person, I wouldn't recommend a friends with benefits relationship.
What Girls & Guys Said
10 23I consider friends with benefits to be an unofficial relationship and all that stuff happens in relationships too.
"They might say you're really hot even if they think you're average,"
Or he might just think your hot. To each his own.
Honestly, a woman a man's having sex with is 10x better than a woman he's not having sex with.
Good take by the way
"... a woman a man's having sex with is 10x better than a woman he's not having sex with." That's it, close down this site. We have the answer to everything.
So you're saying friends with benefits is awesome. I concur
You are in a very dangerous situation.
Not at all.
The part about casual sex. That will come back to bite you.
Doubt it.
I agree with this girl 100%. She is the type of girl who understands life... in my eyes. Its all I how YOU look at things. (Perception). Family is the ultimate goal... if you're not ready for that, what's so wrong with a fwb? Why date someone if you don't plan to marry them? Why only have sex if you are dating? Get your life in order efore trying to create a family. Nowadays it's much harder and takes longer to get your life in order. Remember, you will change a whole lot from the time you are 20-30
I would rather get an escort instead of sleeping with a female friend. I just wouldn't want to jeopardize my relationship with a friend, and it woul be awkward
I'll rather seek love in a relationship, in a traditional way

@Pinkicecream thank you
he's trying to say you're a nice guy and he's some sort of alpha dude
@Toad-1 I'm a nice person I don't get this alpha beta thing..
This is why you don't have sex.
fuck buddy always have big dicks
Just curious, are you completely from the American culture or do you have some kind of a connection to other cultures and countries?
No judgement intended.
I'm from the UK.
Ok. thanks. Cool.
What a load of complete crap!
I've been in the same scenario actually. So no, it's not.
Actually so have I, and I can tell you it is total, complete, crap. Good try though troll.
Just because it didn't work for you, doesn't mean it doesn't work for others.
It doesn't work for others either. Sure they sound like you they even lie about how great the sex is, which isn't true or they have nothing good to compare to or both. The truth is they just have some nuerotic fear of being in love, and they dont want amyone else to be either so they try and sell us this bullshit.
So you don't feel anything for him at all? I don't know if I could do that.
I don't fall in love with just anyone.
Me either, it tends to work the other way for me. I've got to feel a connection before I sleep with a guy. I can't just jump into bed with anyone. A few of my male friends wanted me to be their fuck buddy. I couldn't. Lol. But each to their own.
@Shorty1991 Agreed.
I don't sleep with just anyone.
thats so fucked up that i puked all over my fucking screen. yup going to the monastery asap... .
sex sex sex. yeah he is a good fucker, but he uses you as a cumdumpster. totally open? more like totally frozen hearts. what does a bad man in bed means? teach him what you like smartass. lies. is that even a good thing? wtf. yes of course you dont really care about each other cause thats not love. i dont even wanna know your little dark secrets that u can't say respect? no there is no respect to that situation, only pretence and mutual use of each other for masturbation. thats what it is.
I do agree somewhat.
