The rulebook for friends with benefits
- You do not talk about Bang Club.
- You DO NOT talk about Bang Club.
- If someone says "stop" or goes limp, taps out the bang is over.
- Only two people to a bang.
- One bang at a time.
- No shirts, no shoes.
- Bangs will go on as long as they have to.
- If this is your first night at Bang Club, you HAVE to bang.
Yup. Works pretty well.
Friends with benefits, the odd grey area between friendship, one night stands and a proper relationship, might easily develop from convenient, casual sex into an emotional shitstorm if some set of rules for the thingy isn't agreed upon.
Now, I don't mean you should sit down with lawyers to negotiate – just make sure you're on the same page of each other's terms and conditions. Keep it simple, and keep it straight.
I myself have managed to maintain a great friend with benefits for some three months now. Some say it's the longest that such a no strings attached status can last, and that after that it's doomed to get emotionally complicated. Ouch.
Oh well, I guess I'm about to see. In the meantime, I'll continue enjoying myself without the awkward mornings (so, what was your name again?) or being bounded by exclusivity. A win-win.
