I don’t have one, but I wish I did.

Do you means benefits like Medical and Dental?
Or do you mean like “Mr. Cynical lets me copy his math homework?”
LOL, no, I mean casual sex with no “strings” attached, of course.
My ex-gf gives me some benefits, but she lives in WY and I in Chicago, so it doesn’t happen very often.
SilverKey,
I broke up with my girlfriend while I was in college, she was still in highschool (it wasn’t because I wanted to keep my options open). Sex was a big part of our relationship, not the only part, but a big one. Anyhow, we remained friends afterwards, and when I came home for Christmas break, we realized just how “frusterated” we both were. We decided to try the whole “friends with benefits” thing (my suggestion).
It worked out great for about a week, then I realized we were no longer friends, but boyfriend & girlfriend again. It’s funny what a guy will put up with for sex. We kept it up for a while, then she met some guy she kinda liked, so we cooled off.
Two friends of mine had something similar happen. They had never gone out, but just felt like fooling around. The girl wound wanting a serious relationship with my friend, that he didn’t even want to thing about. She wound up flipping out and going Coo-Coo on all of us.
So, if you’re thinging about including a benefits package to the standard friendship, I say go for it. They’re lots of fun while they last. But be extremely careful…not psychotic…careful.
I’m thinking that’s more along the lines of what you were looking for. Although, medical would’ve been nice too.

I’ve got one that’s been going on for a few years now. It is convenient, and we both realize what the “relationship” is. It is some of the best I’ve had, but fortunately or unfortunately, I don’t believe either of us would want a real relationship with the other.
Friend with benefits? Do you mean concious benefits, or every now and then we get really drunk end up in the sack and try to forget about it the next day?
I have quite a few of the second kind. I used to have one of the first, then he went and married his fiance and moved to Hawaii…
What a bastard! Can you imagine the gall? He married his fiance’???
Besides my husband (who is my best friend) I have two friends with benifits.
Kinda nice. Anybody who doesn’t know the story can go to the bi-guy thread.
I do. It’s quite nice, and I am not made of wood. I haven’t been in a relationship since January. It’s kind of twisted - we hooked up and I had no idea he had a girlfriend. But then he realized he didn’t actually want to be with her because their were so many more possibilities, so he broke up. I cut him off when I realized he was cheating on someone with me, but then forgave him because, well, he knows what he is doing. So every once in a while he calls me or I call him. And no strings attached! I love it. All that sex but no drama. Just what I need! 
Oh man, thanks for reminding me. I lost my latest about two months ago. My last three GF’s have all become friends after the relationship died. I’m not saying that’s a good thing, by the way. When I have one I think “Jeez, this is kind of sad”. When I don’t, I think, “Well, ok, maybe it was kind of sad, but it was better!”

ahem I do. For about the last month. It has been one of the most liberating things that I have done in my life. I know that as soon as one of us begins seeing someone, it is too stop- neither one of us has stopped dating people, but as neither of us is in a relationship, why not?
It has been an eye opening experience to say the least. We have both learned a LOT about sex-about making sure the experience is good for both of us, since that is what we are there for.
I know it will end eventually. But for now, I know that there is someone I can call when I get a case of the hornies. 
Ah, FWB, how I miss it. A friend and I had that once. To be honest, if it wasn’t for the fact that I go to school an insurmountable number of miles away, I would’ve asked her out and she would have said yes (we’ve had this discussion before). It was, as Lsaura says, a very liberating experience, though it had the rather unfortunate result of my falling in love with her.
Unfortunate, of course, because now she has a new love and I don’t. Not that I begrudge her her happiness, but still, to quote Lisa Simpson “You can’t help but feel a little rejected.”
If you can get it truly strings-free, though, it’s an absolutely incredible experience…
I have at least two, but one isn’t availiable for use at the moment. I like how I can be close friends with them and still be able to get play every now and then if I’m lacking.

Um . . . we need to talk.
In other news, I do online but not offline. Offline I’m not the kind of person who’d do that.
Yes, that’s right, you just heard a teenager say he wouldn’t have casual sex. Get on with your life. I promise you’ll hear stranger things yet.
IMHO, there are always strings. At least that has been my experience.
Been there done that.
there were no strings attached. she wasnt into bondage
oh how I wish I did…::sigh::
Michi… you DO… just have not called me… sigh. 
I have had two of these in my past. One VERY recent that she ended up getting more attached than we had planned. I miss it.
When you are looking for that someone AND you are just horny as all hell, I think women can sense the… desperation for lack of a better word, for contact. Sometimes you just want that M/F (change to your prefence) contact so bad that you come across as desperate. Anyway, the occasional romp would make you feel like you really were not a total loser and that someone DOES actually find you attractive and you can carry on looking for things deeper than slot A or tab B.
