What are the potential problems in a 'friend with benefits' relationship?

One potential problem is that it can blur the lines between friendship and a romantic relationship. This often leads to confusion and hurt feelings.

In a relationship, if a friend has a large physical feature like that, it could initially seem like a benefit in the sexual aspect. But we must consider that a relationship is a complex thing. Emotionally, the most important things are things like loyalty and the ability to support each other. Physically, while it might seem like an advantage, it doesn't guarantee a great relationship. In fact, focusing too much on this one aspect can lead to overlooking other important areas of a relationship, such as shared hobbies and long - term goals.

Well, in theory, there could be a perception of enhanced masculinity which might bring a sense of security to the relationship. But really, in a healthy relationship, it's not the most important thing. Communication, understanding, and kindness are far more crucial for a relationship to thrive. Just having this one physical characteristic doesn't guarantee a successful relationship.

One potential problem is the confusion of feelings. It might start as just physical, but then one person could develop deeper feelings and the other might not, which can lead to hurt and a damaged friendship.

One problem could be the development of feelings. If one person starts to feel more than just physical attraction, it can make the situation really complicated. For example, if the guy falls in love but the girl just wants to keep it casual.

Communication can be a big issue. In many friend - with - benefits stories, people don't communicate clearly about their expectations. For instance, they might not talk about whether they can see other people or how often they should meet. This can lead to misunderstandings and arguments. Also, jealousy can be a problem. Even though it's not a traditional relationship, if one sees the other with someone else, they might still feel jealous.

One problem is that it can be triggering for some readers who may have experienced abuse themselves. It also might send the wrong message if not handled properly, as it could seem to normalize or romanticize abuse. Another issue is that it can be difficult to write in a way that respects the character of Stiles and doesn't just use him as a tool for a shock - value plot.

One consequence could be the breakdown of the marriage. Trust is a fundamental part of a relationship, and having a FWB outside of the marriage is a major breach of that trust. It can lead to feelings of betrayal and anger from the spouse.
