Have you ever done 'fuck buddy' sex?

How was it? Do you regret it?

Just curious here!

It does seem, er, a tad insensitive to say you're shagging two married men on a parenting forum where so many people have had their lives blown apart by another woman texting and messaging their husbands for "no strings" sex...it's smug and unnecessary.

DOn't forget, it;s the married MEN who are the most to blame though. BrazenHussy hasn't betrayed their wives. SHe never made vows to these wives. If she isn;t interested in more than sex with the men, she's less likely to harass the wives, let the secret out or try to make the men leave their families than another woman who is having an affair with a married men for 'romantic' reasons. But don't forget, it's the MEN who are cheating.

No-one is excusing the married men involved here, but there aren't any marrried men on here bragging about having a fuck buddy behind their wife's back. If there were, they too would be getting a hard time.

Slashtrophe · 06/05/2009 10:20

Can I just say; its 'fuck buddies' not 'fuck buddys'.

Supercherry · 06/05/2009 10:28

Yes, if i can say this is Relationships not Pedants' Corner

I think that a lot of people kid themselves by saying that they don't get involved but more often than not someone will get hurt. I've tried and failed at this ''lifestyle''- didn't work for me. I think that men find it convenient though.

poshsinglemum · 06/05/2009 13:13

Why do so many women find married men attractive anyway? As soon as I find out that a man is married that is normally a turn off for me. Or at least a warning not to get involved even if they are a real hottie.

Overmydeadbody · 06/05/2009 13:14

I've had, and ave, friends with benefits. I don't see what the problem is if neither party wants a committed monogamous relationship, it's just mutual enjoyment and sex with someone you know at the end of the day.

I don't regret anything I've done, and just because I don't want a committed relationship right now doesn't mean I should go without sex does it!

I do have a moral code though, of treating them with respect and visa versa, and them not being married.

Overmydeadbody · 06/05/2009 13:15

poshsinglemum you are making a lot of sweeping generalisations you know.

expatinscotland · 06/05/2009 13:18

Our climbing gym was an endless source of fuck buddies who were not only great for a shag and a beer but could also lead harder grades than I could and help me to improve my own grades .

It was a win-win situation, especially if they were just in town for a while.

poshsinglemum · 06/05/2009 13:18

i know- but that's just my take on it. im not saying fuck buds are bad- just not for me. there is a risk involved- everyone knows that.

Overmydeadbody · 06/05/2009 13:22

cheakysealion: as with any relationship between people, there is no one way of it 'operating', it really depends on the parties involved how they conduct their 'relationship', altohugh generally it will either be just contacting for arranging meet ups to sleep together, or if they are part of your social group or a good friend anyway, you'll see them as you would any other friend and occasionally arrange more intimate meet-ups.

Just like most people have different friends who they interact with differently, and see at different intervals, friends with benefits can involve any nimber of different set-ups and scenarios.

Overmydeadbody · 06/05/2009 13:23

There is risk involved in any relationship posh

Overmydeadbody · 06/05/2009 13:24

expat why is my climbing gym not like yours?

I have yet to actually have a climbng buddy who's attractive enough to want to shag, although their bodied are mighty fine!

expatinscotland · 06/05/2009 13:26

Oh, you should try the Boulder scene, OMDB, or RocknnJammn in Thornton.

My pal and I used to joke that we liked to watch all the heavenly bodies come out at night .

expatinscotland · 06/05/2009 13:28

A lot of them were assholes in one way or another, or utter commitmentphobes, that's why they were good as fuck buddies.

There's just no way you'd consider any of those 40-going-on-20 guys for a serious relationship or having a kid with.

Overmydeadbody · 06/05/2009 13:29

lol, they certainly are heavenly bodies! I hang around climbers so much I forget that not all men's bodies are beautiful toned works of art.

Overmydeadbody · 06/05/2009 13:30

true

expatinscotland · 06/05/2009 13:31

Those torsos and sinewy arms.

Sllluurrrpppp.

Of course, like most fools, I had a disastrous marriage to a climber and then, just to get the lesson through my hard head, a 2-year on-off relationship with another and various self-destructive flings with others.

Overmydeadbody · 06/05/2009 13:43

and their backs and shoulders

expatinscotland · 06/05/2009 15:14

those bums!

and, shall I say it, stamina.

AnyFucker · 06/05/2009 15:37
