Changing Dating Dynamics: FWB risky for women!
 
Some more on what is part of the changing dynamic in dating and finding love: the contemporary idea of FWB being normal.
But it comes with big risk to women, and only win-win for men.

Came across a very interesting article that tells why FWB is a serious emotional risk for women.
I've told the same story in shorter versions many times and wasn't believed, except by my coaching clients.
This is coming from a male dating & relationship coach and he explains how FWB and sex works for a man and then why this makes it so risky for a woman.

Most interesting part to me is what he also says: men will deny being like this, they are the exception to the rule, blabla.
And what I've experienced myself when telling the same story -which is factual- is that I not only get judgement and denial from men but... also from some women!!

In any case, read for yourself.

Friends with benefits are exactly that: FRIENDS. They’re not meant to be relationships. That’s why they’re called situationships. You need to realise this if you have a FWB…..they’re not going to be your relationship. They’re just going to be your casual fling.

Lots of women feel jilted when a FWB doesn’t want a relationship, but what do they expect? The FWB has probably laid it on the line early on, and the message hasn’t been picked up.

The jilted woman then goes off saying; “ oh well, he got what he wanted, “ forgetting that she too has got what she wanted.

If you want a proper, full-on, loving relationship, then intend, create and manifest THAT. You’re not going to find it in a friend with benefits. They’re just a friend.

And why do these kinds of posts always paint men as the villains? Women are just as capable at playing men, as men are at playing women.

I couldn't agree more.

I've noted men who want relationships, and as soon as they've made that known, their female partner loses interest.

It's such a complex world where both men and women are full of positive and negative traits, most of which are not gender specific.
