I disagree.

You said it yourself. You are a "sexually conservative" female. That's fine. I respect that.

You also hinted that girls who are not sexually conservative "hump poles on the dance floor" or whatever. That's not ok. I'm not sexually conservative, but I am not a whore.

People fit into distinct personality types, and these are not bound by gender, though they may be influenced by gender. Therefore, these are not the "exceptions". They are just people who are different than you.

I have had friends with benefits relationships several times. These were during times when I didn't want a heavy relationship and I didn't want to do the whole hookup culture either. I had my freedom, I had somebody who was my friend, and I had a lover when I needed one. This was an ideal arrangement. I am not a slut or confused. I am still friends with all of these people, though I am married now and am committed to my husband. My former FWB have moved into serious relationships with other people as well.

You're right in the fact that when two people expect different things from a relationship, somebody could get hurt. But this is in no way a reason to condemn this type of relationship.

Just because you could never do it does not mean that others are somehow "exceptions" or that this form of blendship can never exist. Be careful how you address things that you do not fully understand.

Ahh, how friends with benefits relationships can be confusing! I haven't been in one, but a good friend of mine made out with me "randomly"….and things like this can quickly escalate to an unwanted emotional roller coaster.

ya this is so true…my last fwb was awful and a lose for both of us. both of us had feelings for each other, but at the same time would continually deny it. until it broke off…basically we both looked like idiots to our entire group of friends. never a good situation

A very funny article. Your description of "joysticks" made me

laugh out loud, friend or not. I think I would throw up if I did any of my male friends.
