In my experience, no. It's never turned out well. Unless it's an f buddy, but then is that actual romantic feelings or just lust 🤷♀️
I never mix romantic feelings with a f buddy. It's a recipe for disaster and why so many people say f buddies don't work. Boundaries - physical, emotional, mental - are key.
I can’t separate the two. 😢 I wish I could
Me either.... I had a good deal of one nighters and FWB back in the day, but it was never me that wanted it that way.
“Looking for love in all the wrong places” comes to mind. 😔
oohohhh, wookinpanub 🎶
I can't just be friends with someone I find truly and terrifically attractive. Either we are going places or I'm going to stop going the places I see them.
Eff buddies are just a bad idea all the long way around.
Agreed.
I feel like I could handle a fuddy as long as he adored me and he wasn’t also fuddying anyone I know.
Would that adoration not cause feelings to flourish anyway? I feel like there’s really no win with a “in it for the fun” arrangement, but that’s just me. My downfall has always been being too sensitive.
No, as long as I’m getting enough attention I think it might be ok. It’s a theory anyway 😁2 -

I should point out that I don’t think for me that would be The Best scenario but I don’t believe the best scenario necessarily exists. I would definitely be “settling“ for less than my ideal.3 -

I can't be anyone's fb without feeling an emotional attachment. Being emotionally invested in someone is very exhausting, especially when they're hot and cold.
I'm a very strong, independent woman, being alone doesn't bother me at all. Even when I was in a serious relationship I was still my own person. My happiness was never in anyone elses hands. They were merely an extended part of me...if that makes any sense.
This has been such a great read! Many thanks for all these wonderful, open responses. 🤗
Roserain will probably make a great FWB for you😏0 -

When I go out, it seems like more than half of the people are in sweatpants and pajamas now. It used to just be fat people or people on their way to the gym, but now it's everyone. I'm old enough to remember when I actually had "school clothes" and "play clothes". I don't even think T-shirts were common until we got into the higher grades of elementary school.

I'm old enough to remember when I actually had "school clothes" and "play clothes". I don't even think T-shirts were common until we got into the higher grades of elementary school.
I used to wear pajamas (shirt/pajama pants combo) to Wal*Mart to go shopping.. when I wasn't as fat as I am now. That was typical midnight shopping fare in a college town (probably still is). Now that I am older, I don't really wear pajamas outside of my home (if at all). I wear more what I would refer to as "house casual" which is usually some sort of graphic tee and leggings when I don't want to put effort into my appearance.
So being that I *used* to wear them at one point, I don't judge or hold ill will toward people who choose to shop in their pajamas. If they aren't flashing anyone or committing acts of indecency, why should I care? It's their appearance and they can do what they want.
Some folks just really do not care about their appearance *or* what other people might think of their appearance and that's fine with me. Harms me none.2 -

I'm at the point where I really don't care. I'm going to get groceries, not find a mate or a job. I have no need to impress. So if I want to dress up and look fab for me, great. If I wanna go out in my workout gear cuz it makes me feel amazing...great. If I am in the middle of home renos and my jeans are torn. Great.
This is me. Like me or don't. 🤷♂️ Haha6 -
Imagine being offended/upset because someone dares to wear clothing you don't appreciate. It's not your body and doesn't affect you, so why do you care?
This goes in the same category of "concern trolling" I reserve for people who comment on my weight, or assume that because I'm overweight I automatically have health problems (I don't, my blood work and tests are perfect) or that because I don't wear makeup, I don't care about my appearance or take care of myself.
What a bunch of rude, condescending and petty people.
