FWB - Why Aren't We Together?
Added 2024-09-21 20:19:02 +0000 UTC“Friends with Benefits” has never quite sat right with me. Maybe I’m just too much of a romantic, but I never quite understood the dynamic - if two people like each other’s company, care about each other, are sexually attracted and compatible, then why wouldn’t they be more than friends? What’s the magic in just remaining friends who fuck now and then, as opposed to becoming lovers and enjoying all the fringe benefits that come with a romantic relationship?
(This is a rhetorical question, of course. If you’ve had a FWB experience and it worked for you, great. I’m simply saying I personally don’t get it and know it wouldn’t work for me.)
In this audio, I imagined what might happen the morning after a pair of friends decided to have sex for the first time. Without having discussed it or given it too much thought, they engaged in what Seinfeld described as as “spirited bout of skanko-roman wrestling” and now, in the cozy light of morning, they’re waking up with each other and needing to address what happened. It’s kind of a sequel to the previous FWB audio I did, the one in which I asked you to help me figure out what my listeners would like to hear…
This is a fun, playful audio with some serious questions and issues in it, and hopefully by the end of the audio, you know what you would say :P
