FRIENDS WITH BENEFITS


Friends are such wonderful people you'd want to keep for a lifetime. They care for you, love you and pamper you with loads of affection. They might not give their life for yours, but would do everything they can to save yours. Too many friends can be too much trouble at times because you'd have to split your loyalty equally among them all and in the process of trying not to offend any, you end up upsetting all. Such a tedious task if you ask me. Everything should be done in moderation as the old advice goes. Yet that doesn't take away any credit from true friends.
Let's consider another concept of friendship. Its the kind of package that many of us have either subscribed to or heard tales about. Friends with benefits is an agreement between a guy and a girl that looks like a real relationship but isn't. They both enjoy some certain 'benefits' that should ordinarily be found in a real relationship. Let me shed some light in there for you...
There's this hot chick on campus and she's so irresistible. That would have posed no problems if you weren't already in a relationship, and you don't want to be caught double-dating. You go ahead to meet her and you two are already getting along well as friends. You discover she too has a hot boyfriend so that puts you two on the same boat. You both admit you would have been perfect for each other if there were no commitments with someone else. What to do now, you start to think........then voila!! You decide to experiment. You remain friends but there's a little funny twist to the regular terms and conditions of friendship. There are the other obvious benefits, plus you get to cuddle, fondle, toss and tumble......and err...the mattress mambo. Both parties sign the necessary documents and a friendship of pure bliss begins. No strings attached, no emotions, nobody goes around blabbing about it and everyone goes home happy. Classic!
People could get very creative and adventurous when they really want things done. Now I don't know where this originated from or who started it, but like every other theory that has ever been propounded, it is not without its flaws. The whole idea is to avoid emotional attachment that could lead to the emotional breakdown that follows broken relationships, but is it really guaranteed? Would both or any of the two parties involved be truly detached from the other emotionally? My guess is NO. And if that is the case, that brings everything right back to where it started from.
At this point, I wouldn't disclose if I've tried it out or not (i'm entitled to keep some dirty little secrets, lol!) but I would like to know your take on this. Common peeps, lets talk about it in the comment box below.

'BOYFIDENCE'

One of the most incredible things that could happen to a young boy is 'a girl hitting on him', and you will agree with me on that. It swells his ego,gets his confidence muscled up and makes him feel on top of the world. ******************************************************************************************************* It was Wesley's first time of having such experience and it thrilled him beyond what words can tell. His life never remained the same after the event. He had just finished the last class of his first week in the university and joined the great multitude swarming towards the bus stop for a ride home. He was not feeling too good with himself because the last lecturer gave a pop-up test and he screwed up big time. He had been warned against such impromptu assessments but he figured it was too early for any lecturer to give a test. This particular one, a maths professor, was so mean he even told them it would be his greatest joy to see everyone fail. That st...

True Feelings

Have you ever compressed your feelings into words and expressed them to whoever​ they were meant for? My guess is YES! We all have sent romantic letters, mails and text messages to our lovers. Though some of my readers might not actually have tried sending a real hand-written letter because everything has gone electronic. Hmmm, electronic love. That sounds like a good topic to write about. So back in my undergrad days, I had two lovebirds living right under my nose. They were such a lovely couple, they got me on my toes and reminded me everytime to get myself entangled in a love nest. The most interesting part of it is that I was appointed as the umpire/referee of their relationship, which means I had to blow the whistle each time one commited a foul. The 'husband' came to me when the 'wife' did something wrong and she did likewise. I had to advise, console, exhort. I loved my job description and I loved them both dearly. One of those confiding days, the ...
