But actually pulling off a healthy, happy friends-with-benefits arrangement might be trickier than you think. Before you get naked with a friend, take a look at these pro's and con's.



Benefits

1. No game playing

Once you have established that you are in the FWB mode, you don't need to worry about coming across as too keen or worrying about whether you ought to call them or wait for them to call you. It is a straight forward deal- You are friends who have sex, nothing more.



2. None of the other responsibilities

You don't need to meet their family and you don't even need to call them. There are times in your life when a relationship isn't what you want- perhaps you want to focus on your career, or you want to move to another city. At these times, being able to enjoy sex with someone you know and are comfortable with without string can seem like an ideal solution.



3. You can keep your eye out for someone better

There is nothing stopping you looking for a long- term lover while you are enjoying Sex with your FWB and its this aspect that makes it seem an attractive option to men in- between relationships. If it's crystal clear that this is what you're doing, is that there really are no strings. That means you are both free to see other people and there are no obligations to even tell each other. You are left to keep looking for other partners, FWBs or whatever, while you continue to get yours.

That's ideally the best type of relationship if you're in a stage in your life where you fear Commitment .
