sigh. Fine @riath, fine. FINE.I get that, but you are rarely a very close friend with a regular hook up without it ending in disaster.
Friends with benefits are usually someone in your general friend circle that you wouldn’t normally hang out with one on one. The exception being to have sex.
If you’re being monogamous for a few weeks/months you’re still intending on sleeping with other people when pub and clubs open up and have no long term intentions for each other.
