    Yeah I was fwb with a guy for a couple of years and it was very clear that one of the benefits he enjoyed most was using me as an unpaid therapist.

    I’m not saying this to complain, I’m saying that a lot of men only seem to be comfortable talking about emotions with someone they’re having sex with.

      FRIENDS with benefits

      JFC, what do you say when the friends that don’t bang you come to with emotional problems, laugh in their face?

        Friends with benefits implies sex without the emotional baggage found in a relationship. Or at least that’s how I understand it.
