......a good man is hard to find? Or is it a hard man is good to find?

Chatting to some of my girlie fab friends the other day we were all in agreement. 'Why is it so hard to find that perfect FB/FWB arrangement?' We are not talking relationship here ........ no way!! Just good regular sex between consenting adults. We never came to a firm conclusion so what are your thoughts fellow fabsters?

I do think that feelings come into it either one or both panic and end it. I'd would hate to feel one way fondness to then feel it's not mutual I'd be gutted

I don't think there's anything wrong with being too fussy As far as I'm concerned, this is my fantasy life and I'm entitled to be as fussy as I like. I certainly wouldn't meet up with anyone I don't fancy just because he 'might' be good fun

I'm on the lookout for regular friends with benefits and to be honest I'd rather wait and go without than lower my standards!

If I was single on here the last thing id want is a fb or fwb,from what I have seen on here its a relationship of sorts and with relationships come compromise,emotions and some sort of ground rules, that would very quickly get right on my tits

There is nothing wrong with being fussy, particularly when the odds are in your favour

However if you want a FB relationship, ie when you expect the other guy to regularly meet you, and by definition forego other women, then if you do get chatting to that exceptional guy then I'm afraid the women concerned are going to have to be pretty exceptional themselves for that exceptional guy to agree to give up meets with other women

Good point!

Some women seem to think that having a fb means they are exclusive and can't see other people. That's a relationship!!!

fb's see other people. No ties.

which is why I state on my profile that I'd prefer to find friends with benefits rather than a FB. The last thing I'd want or expect is for anyone I meet to give up meeting anyone else

I'm not actually looking for a fb. It was a general conversation we were having about fb's because I already have one. The general gist of the convo was 'there are so many men on here saying they want fb's but where the hell are they.

As for exclusivity - I'm a swinger! How does that work? Lol

well from a guys perspective, I have met a few women, a few too desperate and a few nutters. There are very few that actually take sex as sex. You get invited back a second time and its 'you will have to take me to a club', 'are you free this or that day', 'can you come and pick me up', 'come over I am upset', that and impromptu telephone calls - this can even be after the first meet also.

I realise blokes can be equally as pandering after a first meet but women too (and some couples) can be a little to relationshipy after the first meet.

My FWB and I were really lucky in that we got together on here after my having only been on the site a month or two and her having recently moved to the area. We're having a fantastic, NSA time while still meeting other people so it is possible.

So us potential FB guys are out there ladies, you just have to find us.

But, on a serious note. If the time is right, and you meet the right person. This fb/fwb relationship will form anyway.

...me and my fb met on facebook strangely enough. And we've been meeting for 4 years. We didn't expect anything like that. It just happened. It's only a week or two ago that we ended. Things got a bit complicated which we should have anticipated all these years.

So, like i said. Once there's that spark - then you know it's right. Don't think you can force it.

Some of us state from the offset. However, just because some of us aspire to get into a kinky relationship, it doesn't make us desperate/needy. I've been "inter_iewing" for a few years . No rush .

I am going to have to disagree. When you are called at 10pm by someone you have only met once (and a good few weeks previously) who are crying at something that turns out to be very trivial - asking you to drive for an hour to meet them so 'they can be with someone'. I define that as a desperate and needy.

When you are asked to cuck someone after the first meet - as in ltr.

When you are told you should come over when ever you like day or night and where the keys to the house are.

Most ladies wisely put 'not looking for singles guys' to reduce 300 messages per day down to 30 ish !

Then they can set out hunting and selecting males themselves and make first contact..saves some whiny guy saying why didn't you reply !!? Is it because I have a beard !

It's just as hard as a single guy to find a good female FWB/FB. I had met an old friend on this site and another woman from another site, and I had no problems with the old friend but it's still a little awkward with the other woman. Maybe she has finally realised that it's NOT a relationship.
