His wife is a very good friend of mine who often sends me material for fodder here. Pfft. (Yes I know he will read this) He's pretty blunt and isn't scared to drop comments on my provocative posts here. LOL!! Joe’s the husband of a co worker…and he claims to be a friend to me.

I don't want to be a FWB. Sorry. Life's too short for that silly kid stuff. And Joe- you can KMA. While you're correct with every point made in your comment, I am abit taken aback at your bluntness. IOW I'm kind of speechless. For now. Gimme some time to think and I'll come back with more. :mrgreen: Nope. I don’t want to be a FWB. Sorry. Life’s too short for that silly kid stuff.

You don't like being a friend with benefits? Men are pigs. We want it all. We want all our lady friends to be bed buddies; we also want a full time girlfriend/wife who will do the cooking, cleaning, babying, laudrying and so on. Left to their own ends, men would have many partners for sexual gratification. We can't help ourselves. That's not true, some of us DO help ourselves and we're nasty old men. The best of us though can and do control the 13 year old impulses and selfish behavior. It's what separates the men from the 13 year old boys. The men CAN control themselves and be respectful at the same time. The boys refuse to grow up, settle down and be real men. Until one day when they realize they're getting old and still have no family to show for it; they have no companionship and are lonely. And they find their field of choice has grown much smaller because they no longer attract good women. I cannot imagine you even contemplating being a FWB; it goes against everything you claim to believe in. You have morals and values. You have a soul, and a very big heart, that has been broken a couple times since your marriage ended. Your marriage itself broke you. You're a smart lady. But you are still a little naive. Give yourself a break young lady. It's not been that long since it ended and you still feel the pain and dispair. It will get better. Mean while don't settle for anything less than what you have defined as your standards. Don't be swept up by empty promises and offers of cash and a lucritive lifestyle. Don't go for email offers of friendship either. It's not worth it. You will only end up being hurt again. Follow those instincts, and do keep your heart's feelings at bay. Use your head and do use those so called masculine traits to protect yourself. You'll be a better and much happier person. What? You don’t like being a friend with benefits?
