I used to have a friend that shared their steam library. Now that is what I call a benefit.
Fwb is such a stupid concept
It’s just prostitution but different
wh*rephobia from lemmy[dot]world, shocker
whore*
The instance has nothing to do with anything, at least in my case.
To me it’s just an ethical thing. Hookups to me seem like a sad and worthless concept. Might as well masturbate instead. No fun that lasts, no connection that makes it special at all. The sex just loses all its meaning
Somebody’s never had a fwb
It has nothing to do with prostitution. There’s no money involved, and nobody gains anything material.
I believe the idea is to just hook up, but with people you know and like, instead of strangers. Safer, probably cheaper, and maybe even beneficial outside of the obvious.
They call it sex work, because it’s work. Please don’t say prostitution anymore :)
Prostitution has nothing to do with an exchange of goods, does it?
Imo recreational sex in general is prostitution.
words have meanings, and it sounds like you don’t know the meaning of that one.
Touché
I’ve had a lot of fwb and this is pretty much exactly why. Trust, safety, added benefit of learning a person sexually so both parties are fully satisfied.
You don’t love your friends?
People dont know how to love each other anymore, you say you love someone, and they assume you want to be locked alone in a room with them for the rest of your lives
This! I can love my hookup for a couple of hours and then love “the witcher 3 free remaster” the next day. I hate that “I love you” carry so many additional meanings.
literally my thought. Also helps if you’re already in the habit of telling your friends you love them, which I HIGHLY recommend. It is extremely fulfilling.
Sure do. Wouldn’t leave my wife for them though…
You guys have friends?
I had a friend who had friends. They were my friends, until I lost that friend, and went back to zero again
Yep, that’s the serious problem you get if you’re letting someone else do the work of maintaining friendships. You gotta reach out to people yourself.
How to meet those ppl in the first place? No idea, I got like 5 ppl I still know from college and I’m holding on to em for dear life.
