11 Most Important NSA Relationship Rules for Success

No strings attached relationships are so attractive to some people while being completely unacceptable for others. If you find yourself catching feelings you should speak up immediately. We started sexting and sharing pics and started texting everyday we met and had sex, everything was cool, we were both left satisfied. Was it on-off and how close were you two?

They expect to be there for each other, but maybe only on a temporary basis. I had to go look it up... A single night of sexual enjoyment with no expectation of anything beyond that one night.

11 Most Important NSA Relationship Rules for Success - Let's be honest: when feelings overwhelm your mind, you can no longer assess the situation objectively.

WHAT IS THE DIFFERENCE? I have my own idea of what the difference is, and how to ideally act in each situation. However, from another thread, it seems that people disagree with how I personally feel, so I'm really curious what other people think the distinction is, and how to act and treat the other person in both of these situations. JMO but I think... NSA is with a person you have no relationship with other then sex. Pretty much like an on call booty call. FWB is more so a actual friend you have added benefits with. I think you would still hang out with them and do other things, in addition to the sex. I think this is a way to fill the void of wanting a relationship but not having all the responsibilities of having a relationship. JMO but I think...

I think this is a way to fill the void of wanting a relationship but not having all the responsibilities of having a relationship. Maybe this is why I'm so confused? Cuz I honestly loved my FWB situation, because it honestly felt almost exactly like being in a relationship, minus actually being in a relationship. Plus there was a don't ask don't tell thing, and no jealousy of the fact that the other person was free to do as they wished... I think they're like DWI and DUI - there's really no significant difference, just 2 ways to say the same thing. See, I think both situations are really a NSA situation, yes. But I also think there is a huge distinction between someone who is simply NSA and someone who is a FRIEND with benefits. Sure, a FWB is still NSA, but you get a lot more than just sex out of it.... Aren't NSAs complete strangers that know nothing about each other, who hookup and that's it? Where FWBs are two people who know each other and have chosen to solely hookup? This is similar to what dreamer has said but with her explanation, there's more to an FWB. Well I think there's two types of FWB. You could create a FWB with someone new, but when something goes wrong feelings develope or what not , it's not someone important to you, so you can just move on. I think they are exactly the same thing, but FWB sounds more palletable. Lets be honest, no matter how much of a 'friend' someone is, you dont go backward after having sex. Even if you care about them past what they have between their legs, most people realize that sex IS going to kill whatever friendship you had. IMHO, you just dont sleep with a true 'friend'.

This is a very good point. Maybe I just view a FWB situation more like dating? Because in that type of situation I really feel you owe the other person more than just a NSA experience. I think there's more of a relationship in a FWB situation.

The fact that the name itself starts with elements implies that this is something growing out of an existing friendship. Nsa fwb type of relationship you are roommates- go to your own room. It is also a term that is used to not be as blunt as blurting out ONS. It will only create anxiety and frustration. Once you pan developing real feelings for the chick you become to scared to have the relationship talk because you don't want to lose what you got. If you do not want to feel like an ancient caveman, you need to be up to date about the language people speak solo, and that includes knowing the terms people use. I think both of us are confused and don't really know what do we want, one thing is sure, that I do miss her. I get irritated when someone says NSA, FB, FWB are the same. ONS is con the most straight forward and easiest to understand. Last FWB I was in she brought it up and wanted to be just that, saw me as nothing long term.
