Thought I ask this question, as reading some threads and comments most sound like they are in an open relationship

I think the difference is with fb's and fwb's is that there arent feelings in the same way as a bf/gf relationship.

The key to fb's and fwb's is that sex is no strings between them.

Thats about it as I see it although there is some merging going on with some people.

I see it as the absence of loving feelings... I care for my play parter, and we respect each other.. but there is no romance, or loving business going on..

A lot of people (some likely to post in this thread) will move the goalposts to suit their needs.

In the "classic" sense, an FB or FWB is a friend with whom you have no strings sex with.

It appears to have evolved beyond that for others. Been ages since i had one, so i can only observe based on the comments those with one or more display.

It happens I have had it in the past. It started as one offs. then regular meets aka F/B then you can get jealousy and people thinking they have priority/rights to you. Even if you spell things out clearly they still don't see it.

Been there, got the tshirt. I ended it once it became apparent that we weren't after the same things. That's how it should be. We both know it isn't always the case.

I strongly suspect that those who absolutely don't want a relationship find FB/FWB arrangements easier to stick to than those who enter them leaving themselves open to the possibility of finding a long term partner (it might not necessarily be with their FB)

Putting the 'cum' in Eboracum

My opinion:

A fuck buddy is a person you hook up with for sex only, maybe drinks and chat too.

A friend with benefits is just that - a friend, with whom you have sex with, but there are other extra-curricular activities too. It's a relationship but without any expected commitment.

An open relationship is where you are most likely in a girlfriend/boyfriend scenario but play with others, either together or alone.

I've had all of the above and there are differences to me. Others may not agree though.

There seem to be some people who decribe a fb relationship but the finer details make it sound like a bf/gf relationship, or atleast the early stages or one, ie meeting for drinks, meals, dates, to me that more than just sex.

I have a few guys I regard as a fuck buddy. . . Now to me, they aren't necessarily a friend. Just someone I can call on when I feel like it, and same to them. May not even speak in between booty calls.

A friend with benefits is more a friend, someone I can have a normal vanilla friendship with too, as well as having sex now and again. There is no feelings other than love for a friend involved.

That's my take on it anyway.

For me the difference between a fuck bud and a boyfriend is that i don't have to run anything past a f/b, if i want to meet anyone else its nothing to do with him and visa versa where as if i did that with a boyfriend it would be cheating

A fwb or fb offer you all the benifits of friendship so they have your emotional well being in mind at all times like a normal friend does so cuddles intimate emotion chats are OK where you bear your soul like you would with your best friend .

They also have your sexual well being up most in there mind as well they supply every think a normal boy girl relationship should supply where two people are in love but with out the love to complicate things
