Friends With Benefits: The Casual Relationship

Some think it is an ideal relationship: no stress, no strings attached and those steamy one night stand. You can even talk about your jerky office mate after that steamy sex, or debate about the movie you saw last night. However, relationship that involves sex can create a sense of awkwardness.

Also, it tends to have little romantic desire, but the only complication is that at the end the other person might fall to the other. Friends with benefits might ruin everything.

Sex is pretty complicated. It can be for pro-creation within a family structure or it can also be used as recreation, it may be associated with mutual desire for satisfaction. Some think sex is definitely better with someone you love and are married to. it does not necessarily have to be labeled as immoral sin, evil or dirty. It is an act between two consenting adult who may or may not married or even in love with each other.

People should not overrate sex and pin false hopes on it. It may mean love, but it can also mean lust. It may affirm deep companionship or it could just confirm pleasure. It may be affection to some, an itch to others.

Observed those who take sex very casually tend to become emotionally numb and cynical about love and marriage, it may be an effect of having flings and failed relationship that forces them to block their emotions  and protect their hearts from being broken, again. If they involved with this kind of relationship, they start to lose faith in the capacity of people to be loyal and honest.

Some wants this kind of set-up because they did not want any emotional commitment. It was perceived as a safe relationship. Loneliness is one of the many reasons why some choose to have a casual sex. This relationship appears safe on the surface and each party often feels that it is better than just sleeping around. Engaging in friends with benefits set-up allows for the physical satisfaction without any commitment. It offers the best of both worlds where both partners lead their own lives and are not obliged to the other; which sounds enticing to some but every so often one of the partners 

secretly caught off guard.

Bottom line, we should respect everyone with the choices they make in their lives.
