Funk Buddies

Are these acceptable- as in, sex without the relationships?

If so, are these acceptable with someone you've never done it with before?

If so, are these acceptable if the person is one you'd never consider going out with?

If so, is this acceptable with people who are best friends with people you once did go out with?

Er, hypothetically speaking. Of course.

i would be inclined to say no- but then that's just me i guess. i'm one for true love etc etc....so the idea or randomly f*****g some person every now and then just does NOT appeal....!

**** buddies are fine - ive had one it was a guy i wouldnt consider going out with but it was convenient and good sex we were and sitll are good friends - i dont think its a problem if you're emotionally mature and stable enough to handle it

If you're both aware it's going nowhere and both are consenting... why not?

I dont view it as acceptable.

I do know people who have casual sex with friends, though. Ultimately, it does them no physical harm (assuming no pregnancy\STD arises). As for emotional consequences, well the ones I know of, they seem incapable of forming meaningful, lasting relationships and instead continue to have "no strings attached" sex. Not that it seems to bother them in the slightest...

You're older than the people I'm referring to. Not only that, you're male, and with a far higher degree of maturity...

So you're only referring to girls younger than 18 who are immature? That's very selective.

It would make sex meaningless to me, if I were to have one or many, and I don't want that to happen, so I don't do it. :smile:

He's not mature! And I'm not arrogant but the lies endure! AHHHH

And, **** buddies are okay except usually someone (probably the female) will become attached...

I had a funk buddy...we just shagged and did stuff a lot, but I found it really distressing knowing she was doing other guys as well, so it kinda ended, now we're best mates.

So only under-18 girls have **** buddies, basically?


(corrected you there)

I'm only talking about the ones I know personally

You know, some men must have **** buddies too - otherwise the men are in a long term relationship, and these pubescent, immature girls are just in it for the sex....
