  • Masternajee, on 07/06/2008, -45/+33That sums it up perfectly. A friend with benefits is someone everyone needs in their life.
    • DangerCollie, on 07/07/2008, -19/+15Who's digging that down? And why? Friends with benefits can be an ideal relationship for a lot of people, men and women. There have been occasions when it was all I had time for. Those were great days...and great sex. Lighten up, sheez.
      • djholybolt, on 07/07/2008, -0/+1whoever digs dangerColie down is a douchebag who doesn't appreciate our primal instincts
    • c0baltfish, on 07/07/2008, -2/+3It seems like you're speaking from experience.
    • DrGFreeman, on 07/07/2008, -3/+7I don't believe it. This thread is a party for people who have had "friends with benefits" to be dugg down. And people who say it can't happen to be dugg up.

      Digg me down if you want, but some people have stronger sexual urges than others and in my case, I can easily find somebody else who enjoys casual sex. They don't always leave broken hearted or pissed off. I've been doing it for a year.
    • djholybolt, on 07/07/2008, -0/+1Ahhh. Meeeemmories..

      It's so damn true.
  • gavinhudson, on 07/06/2008, -35/+1I was just talking about this chart today. hah
    • GregFD3S, on 07/07/2008, -2/+5Thanks for letting us know. However, if you keep it to yourself next time it would be greatly appreciated.
  • akiteonastring, on 07/06/2008, -9/+530good luck making it work out that simply.
    • Devotia, on 07/06/2008, -35/+10Getting to work that simply is easy: Just be gay!
      • Dested, on 07/06/2008, -1/+42Yes! Homosexuals dont have souls, so they obviously dont mind getting their heart broken like normal people.
      • Stroggoth, on 07/07/2008, -5/+16And bisexuals have half a soul then?
      • cl2yp71c, on 07/07/2008, -5/+11Bisexuals have two souls. =]
        The more the merrier?
      • nycmac247, on 07/07/2008, -10/+5@ Dested

        no... I just have a lot more gay friends than straight friends that A) Know what they want and B) Can find other people that want the same thing -- all w/o BS
      • WickEd101, on 07/07/2008, -4/+2*Masturbates to a voice recording of Wentworth Miller*
      • Evilena, on 07/07/2008, -8/+6Bisexuals don't have souls, and neither does anyone else.
      • alex7575, on 07/07/2008, -4/+6"You cannot bury a comment twice"

        Shame...
    • Zandarrr, on 07/07/2008, -26/+5Actually I'm in a quite successful and fun "friends with benefits" relationship right now.
      • Vindexus, on 07/07/2008, -3/+17Liar.
      • Zandarrr, on 07/07/2008, -12/+2Bury me all you want but it's the truth.
      • unreg, on 07/07/2008, -1/+11Does the other party know?
      • alex7575, on 07/07/2008, -2/+14LOL people are not burying you because they think you are lying, they're digging you down, because no one gives a ***** if you are in friends with benefits relationship.

        In my case I dugg you down because I can't stand a gloating prick...
      • t0x2c, on 07/07/2008, -0/+2Alex I buried him because his information is INACCURATE
      • Iwantawii, on 07/07/2008, -0/+6Just a warning bro, Rosey Palms gets around…
      • Zandarrr, on 07/07/2008, -0/+1Sorry, I wasn't gloating. I was just responding to akite's statement.
    • kpne1home, on 07/07/2008, -1/+45Didn't Sienfield prove it can't work. They even had the sleeping over is optional part in there and it still didn't work.
      • Evilena, on 07/07/2008, -21/+5Sienfield was a Scientologist and Scientologists don't prove things.
      • Lux7, on 07/07/2008, -1/+13You both spelled Seinfeld wrong.
      • wejmahtin, on 07/07/2008, -2/+6Since when is Seinfeld the authority on relationships... What's up with all the people saying friends with benefits is a bad thing by digging down comments by those who support it? It's obviously a mutual engagement... Who can criticize that?
      • tinker123, on 07/08/2008, -0/+1I agree with wejmahtinwejmahtin , FWB is not for everyone, but there are mature consenting adults where it does work. Kudos to Evilena, I never knew Seinfeld was a Scientologist. Lux7, every net addict knows that when someone doesn't have an argument they pick on someone's spelling instead. The net isn't a term paper and perfect writing isn't the expectation.
    • fatjoe, on 07/07/2008, -11/+2Mate it works just fine, been there many timessssssss
    • unknownohm, on 07/07/2008, -3/+17where's the chart that shows how long you can be a friend until they flip out and want a relationship???? that's the snag I alway's ran into
      • matero5009, on 07/07/2008, -2/+3hahahaha agreed


        tried it once n learned my lesson
      • ZombieKiss, on 07/08/2008, -0/+1You're doing it wrong.

        They can't feel like they need you for anything other than sex or movies or some stupid ***** like that. I'd guess you were probably acting more like a boyfriend or someone she can rely on or trust. Try being less available, usually helps.
    • RC212V, on 07/07/2008, -3/+14Well the major trick to not having a "friend's with benefits" thing turn into something serious is, DO NOT ACT LIKE HER BOYFRIEND. Don't call too often (once every week or two), don't offer to let her cry on your shoulder, don't get conned into helping her move furniture, etc. When you plan to 'meet up', don't set it up like a date because she will take it as a date. Instead meet her at a party/bar/club or better yet, after the two of you are done partying. Casual sex should be casual. Any part that you make formal will bring you closer to the end of the casual sex.

      The caveat is that you probably won't be able to do this forever. She may find a real boyfriend, or try to force an ultimatum on you, or lose interest. You can keep it going for longer if you are more charming, better in bed, more fun to be around, etc.
      • temporaryescape, on 07/07/2008, -3/+5dugg for someone who knows what they're talking about. make damn sure she knows that if/when a phone conversation takes place, sex is following.
      • Spudster, on 07/07/2008, -0/+5I find emotional manipulation can get you a few more bangs for your buck (literally). But eventually the other shoe will drop and that won't work any more. Best to move on after that and hope she doesn't have a lot of friends.
      • mcmlxxii, on 07/07/2008, -2/+11You may be comfortable doing as you describe - ie: being a tosser. Some of us have more respect for both ourselves and others.
      • LeeSoong, on 07/07/2008, -4/+3So- just use them and lose them ?

        Sad - you do yourself harm.

        Not a recommended path for happiness.

        Don't sleep with anyone you wouldn't give up your nights for - to wake up and change the diapers of your soon to be children.

        Not everything turns out so nice & easy as ''Juno'':

      • RC212V, on 07/07/2008, -1/+4It has nothing to do with using anyone. The whole reason women get hurt when men have sex with them but don't want to date them is because men give them the wrong idea. If you have sex with a woman while acting like her boyfriend she is going to assume you want to be her boyfriend. That is why women get upset a lot of the time with one night stands. If the man acts like he wanted more but really didn't it's confusing and hurtful.

        A huge problem is that most men don't know that you don't have to play the boyfriend role if you want sex. Women want sex too and they can have sexual relationships as long as you act appropriately. Be honest about your intent and establish boundaries. Having sex with women but not being exclusive is only dishonest or disrespectful if you make it that way.
      • ZombieKiss, on 07/08/2008, -0/+1@LeeSoong

        Seriously, that moral high ground isn't going to get you anywhere but a regretful deathbed. Knocking someone up doesn't happen as easily as you're thinking.
    • brett1337, on 07/07/2008, -3/+5it worked out on scrubs.
    • Iztikeit, on 07/07/2008, -1/+3friends with benefits either turn into romantic interests or move on. It's a very rare find to keep a friend with benefits around for more than a few months.

      I don't know, there's just something about doin' it just for the sake of doin' it that feels like masturbation to me.....
    • asleepy0, on 07/07/2008, -1/+5I disagree, but am too stoned to argue.

      (Since when has 'friends with benefits' been accompanied with the idea that all relationships among 'friends' lack any meaning?)
    • Heavypettingzoo, on 07/07/2008, -0/+2How many of you have actually had a friends with benefits situation? When it works, it is amazing and simple. The trick is just not to get into it with someone that you know will develop feelings. Unfortunately, women rarely have the ability to separate sex and emotions.
    • Reaper2806, on 07/07/2008, -2/+1I've had it work. I'm sure many people have. I had a friend with benefits for a year. Only rule was no exclucivity and no jealousy, and it worked fine. She found someone she wanted to be with and we ended the arrangement and we're still friends. Don't overcomplicate it and it's fine.
    • Dustin00, on 07/07/2008, -1/+1It's not a relationship, so FwB is not likely to last long term. It may last a month, it may last years. But it will end.

      Thus, you need to have 2 to 4.

      And, yes, always play safely!
  • lindsay4767, on 07/06/2008, -16/+4The quotation placement is all wrong. It should be: Friends with "Benefits"
  • Tribunis, on 07/06/2008, -22/+391So which half of the chart has STDs
    • mithrasinvictus, on 07/07/2008, -4/+29Without portfolio diversification, the number of (previous) sexual partners could be the same for both systems.
    • Sleepytime, on 07/07/2008, -10/+2ahahaha you ***** aspie
    • nathron, on 07/07/2008, -6/+26You know not everybody that has sex has STDs. It's not a valid reason to feel better about your virginity. :)
      • TheNakedChef, on 07/07/2008, -11/+3It's easy to avoid STDs and condoms and still get a lot of ass. Go for girls in relationships. If they get preggers they will say it's their BFs kid too. It's a win-win situation.
      • Heavypettingzoo, on 07/07/2008, -2/+9^ wow
    • AquaOSX, on 07/07/2008, -1/+3Itchin' it?
    • Llort, on 07/07/2008, -9/+3People always like to think that anyone who gets more ass than them is an STD farm..
    • Jingoism, on 07/07/2008, -3/+0According to the chart, your half doesn't, but then again its a very unscientific chart and a very virulent strain of herpes.

    • MattD1, on 07/07/2008, -2/+6The half that believes the Catholic Church's views on condom use.
  • dangermouse4, on 07/06/2008, -28/+52Makes you wonder why you'd ever want a committed relationship?
    • noahhoward, on 07/06/2008, -1/+216How else are you supposed to unlock all the achievements?
      • Issius, on 07/07/2008, -7/+11Win. 2 Internets for you. However...you're stuck with I.E.
    • cl2yp71c, on 07/07/2008, -6/+2Why would you?
    • LRG1, on 07/07/2008, -6/+50One word, anal
      • ferkranus, on 07/07/2008, -9/+4it's the trust factor...it's a very delicate process for those who aren't in porn. or so i'm told...
      • barfooz, on 07/07/2008, -4/+17Can someone please explain the urge for anal sex in heterosexuals?

        Seriously. There's already a hole made for sex. Use it.
      • ShadowMerchant, on 07/07/2008, -4/+8"Can someone please explain the urge for anal sex in heterosexuals?"

        I like to buy my wife diamonds, but don't want her demanding them all the time. I graciously accommodate her occasional offers of butt-love so she can feel like she has "earned" her shiny things.
      • Heavypettingzoo, on 07/07/2008, -0/+1haha I feel bad for you guys.
      • dynelol, on 07/07/2008, -3/+1When a woman does this, it usually takes two forevers to manage so it often sucks. As for the urge..well sometimes the other sex hole isn't in great condition.
      • volonix, on 07/07/2008, -6/+2@barfooz: spoken like a true virgin, lol.
      • IAmTomCruise, on 07/08/2008, -0/+0@ShadowMerchant Practicing for the poolboy of course.
    • floorman56, on 07/07/2008, -0/+48Makes you wonder why you'd ever want a committed relationship?

      When she introduces you to her new boyfriend and tells you she just wants to be "Just Friends"
      • ithejosh, on 07/07/2008, -10/+2And then she will still cheat on her boyfriend to get with you if you play it right.
      • floorman56, on 07/07/2008, -10/+5And then she will still cheat on her boyfriend to get with you if you play it right.

        Humm No ...most women want a relationship. If the get a good one they wont give it up for "just sex"
        There comes a time when they get tired of being a "Support system for a vagina "
      • Llort, on 07/07/2008, -3/+7@floorman56: That time comes in their 30's, when guys start to not want them anymore.
    • gfunk76, on 07/07/2008, -0/+17Because friends with benefits are no longer around when you grow old. Companionship.

      And, yeah, anal.
      • RobotBuddha, on 07/07/2008, -7/+3I think you're living in a fantasy if you think that marriage promises anything even close to assurance of having someone around when you're old either.
  • WoogieHauser, on 07/06/2008, -15/+22Does anyone have a link to a larger version? Hard to read small text.
    • EarlOfLade, on 07/06/2008, -22/+9FireFox 3, then Ctrl - + to increase size. How difficult is that?
      • ydt89, on 07/06/2008, -4/+20well I only have one hand and only 2 fingers left on my left hand.
      • Andytom, on 07/06/2008, -3/+15But it doesn't make the small text any easier to read.
      • eohano, on 07/06/2008, -13/+3Safari: Click on it.
      • yeskia, on 07/07/2008, -3/+7My god there are some ***** in this world aren't there.
    • OmniShinzui, on 07/07/2008, -12/+4Ceiling cat is watching you masturabate
  • misspiggymess, on 07/06/2008, -13/+28Haha: "Describing yourself as "we"
  • ThatDustyGuy, on 07/06/2008, -8/+381It's all fun and games until one of them falls in love with the other.
    • cl2yp71c, on 07/07/2008, -2/+62From then on, it's a load of fail.
    • TruthLies, on 07/07/2008, -3/+143From then on, it's a romantic comedy.

      Oh wait, the guy above me already said that.
  • UncleCrapper, on 07/06/2008, -11/+246No, not true. In the minds of many, "friend with benefits" equals boyfriend or girlfriend in training. Unless the ground rules are set and understood early on, I have yet to see someone come out of these situations without being hurt.

    • lisaawesome, on 07/06/2008, -0/+82Yeah one of the partners is always disappointed when it doesn't develop into more and then your prior friendship gets just a wee complicated. It is a very rocky road to travel.
    • Anonchrist, on 07/07/2008, -2/+12That is why they ware not suppose to last more than a week, unless it is just occasional sex between two friends.
    • idolwalrus, on 07/07/2008, -0/+9in training? like you get to show them all the crazy sex things you want from a relationship without catching hell?

      you're right, it's a good way to get hurt.
    • doubledoh, on 07/07/2008, -5/+57HAHAHA. You humans and your "feelings".
      • Iztikeit, on 07/07/2008, -0/+1You aliens and your unfeelings.
      • blinky04, on 07/07/2008, -0/+9Why did you laugh if you have no feelings?

        Data never laughed.
        Didn't talk condescendingly either.
      • Dean177, on 07/07/2008, -0/+10Bender did though.
        Coincidentally that is also who that quote is from.
    • PabloIV, on 07/07/2008, -0/+6I've only seen this work when both parties were already in Traditional Relationships
    • aaronhoffmeyer, on 07/07/2008, -0/+1Actually, having lived in California for eight years, I've seen this work for a few people. One case involved two neighbors, neither young or "hot" ... and the woman accepted the man's arrrangement based on lack of other prospects.

      The other arrangements involved young, beautiful women, and it was their idea. One woman basically had five different "friends with benefits" and each guy had is day of the week. She told them up front, that was all they got, and that she was seeing other people. According to her, because each guy got only one night, each guy went over the top to make that night one to remember. So, from her perspective, she had five fabulous dates a week. Oh, and she only dated very good-looking, fairly well-to-do men. She also told me she was inspired by several of her friends who were doing something similar.

      I knew another woman who dated A LOT, and again, she was young and very attractive. She was also very tall (6'1") and so she had problems finding a guy who was tall enough and could handle her height. Still, among her paramours was an older, especially well-to-do married man who bought her a BMW convertible and gave her a $10,000 a month allowance, and another was her married boss.

      I have also lived in seven different states in the US, and one thing every area has in common ... a lot of sex.
      • koick, on 07/11/2008, -0/+1A couple of those "arrangements" sounded like women basically hooking.
    • jillyteeth, on 07/07/2008, -0/+1"well-to-do married man who bought her a BMW convertible and gave her a $10,000 a month allowance, and another was her married boss"

      these arrangements sound like a far cry from FWB, more like economic transactions.
  • minnymoo, on 07/06/2008, -17/+21what is a boyfriend/girlfriend anyway?
    simple close friends who are attracted to one another...
    i dont see how its mandatory for the male to do certain things, or for the female to act a certain way.
    • breich, on 07/07/2008, -1/+4If only it worked that way... I've dated some of my best friends, and coincidentally almost destroyed all of those friendships. There is something more to love than friendship + sexual attraction, I just can't put my finger on what it is.
    • gobbleplex, on 07/07/2008, -0/+3'what is a boyfriend/girlfriend anyway?'

      A miserable pile of secrets?
  • Lane, on 07/06/2008, -9/+87Never Works....
    • utahnkid, on 07/07/2008, -1/+5That's like saying driving never works because you can get in an accident. It just has to be done right.
    • Llort, on 07/07/2008, -0/+4^ Doin' it wrong.
  • cydlys, on 07/06/2008, -7/+21Does this work if you are bisexual?
    • KaiUno, on 07/06/2008, -3/+20Probably even better. Bigger pool of people for your "benefit".
    • zointax, on 07/07/2008, -1/+11Seems to me like the chart implies it as well in the "portfolio diversification" section. It lists: "You -> Pat, Jesse, Sydney, Chris".
      • freddyjackson, on 07/07/2008, -1/+4All four of those names could be either male or female.
    • daishin, on 07/07/2008, -0/+17It doesn't work when you're asexual however.
      • dynelol, on 07/07/2008, -1/+2Wait..what? There are people that are devoid of sexual urges? *****.
    • Alegoo92, on 07/07/2008, -0/+2Why wouldn't it?
    • SatansSpatula, on 07/07/2008, -0/+8Same thing, only hotter. Unless you're a guy, in which case, as a heterosexual guy, I find it less hot. But from your perspective, then I suppose it would still be hotter. So, cheers, whatever the hell you are!
    • Jingoism, on 07/07/2008, -4/+0According to the chart you will only be having sex with men. Pat, Jesse, Sydney, and Chris. Actually, we aren't sure what Pat is, so bisexual might be possible?
      • logan2448, on 07/07/2008, -0/+1I wasn't aware Sydney was a boys name.
      • Jingoism, on 07/11/2008, -0/+0It can go either way, but in this case he is a man.
  • Croecop, on 07/06/2008, -24/+437How is this relevant to the users of Digg?
    • blanketfury, on 07/07/2008, -27/+5Speak for yourself.

      Signed,
      Digg Power User
    • jb0nd38372, on 07/07/2008, -18/+3Seems like this would be COMPLETELY RELEVANT to digg users. How many times have I searched comments to hear about how digg users cant get laid, dont have / cant get girlfriends,etc.

      Seems like a friend with benefits would be a digg users best option.
      • Nauru, on 07/07/2008, -0/+22That would require digg users to get off the computer and make friends.

        Nope.
    • DanMcGuinness, on 07/07/2008, -4/+0Hahaha, I only dugg this because I envision other digg users to be fat, stupid idiots, and therefore I don't associate myself with them... but I guess everyone else who dugg your comment (often wrongly) see it the same way as I do. Fat, stupid idiots...
    • Nin10dude, on 07/07/2008, -5/+8"digg users don't have sex lawls" really doesn't have to be said on every ***** topic about sex that pops up on digg.

      It's getting just a bit old.

      And before jokes are made about it, yes, I'm a virgin, no, it's by choice (gasp), and no, I'm also not religious (zomgwtf). Some of us just happen to feel that there's more to sex than pleasure.
      • matroska1, on 07/07/2008, -1/+8LOL
      • courbple, on 07/07/2008, -2/+9I know. I know. It's implied but...

        What are you, some kind of queer?
      • Nin10dude, on 07/07/2008, -1/+6I'm straight, though I'm pretty sure gay people still like sex.
      • temporaryescape, on 07/07/2008, -0/+3there is more to sex than pleasure sometimes, but i guarantee you that after you try it once you'll never say that again
      • Spudster, on 07/07/2008, -4/+2What's funny about your comment is that you took him to task about mentioning the classic joke about Digg users being virgins... then admit you are one yourself.

        How can you be a virgin by choice and be proud of that if you aren't abstaining for moral reasons? It means you're just failing with women.
      • logan2448, on 07/07/2008, -3/+2***** yeah V4N (virgin for now). I'm in the same boat, by choice.
      • kagreenie1, on 07/07/2008, -0/+5you're just building the pussy up....
      • korealize, on 07/07/2008, -1/+7"virgin by choice" is the laziest cop-out excuse i've ever heard

      • Issius, on 07/07/2008, -1/+7How? Well...maybe Sydney, that's just a horrible name. Jesse is a guy's name as well as a girl's however. And Pat is simply short for Patrick.
    • seforbes, on 07/07/2008, -0/+34i noticed that too. i kept wondering why they used all guys names and then sydney (because that's my name.. and i'm a girl... and yeah) and then i realized they were all unisex and i felt sad.

  • schuder, on 07/07/2008, -8/+9There is some minor dating involved in the FWB. Though honestly those have been more fun than normal dates. How many girlfriends would suggest going to a stripclub (not a gay one either)? Plus they don't care if you get hammered, in fact they usually join in. Smoking too, which I usually only do when hammered, they'll happily join in. Not to mention they make great wing-"men" and have helped out some friends in that dept too. Which leads to the best, when their friends go home empty, there's always the chance to ride the tricycle.

    Then again, maybe my lack of understanding is tied in with being nearly 17 and still not even had a first kiss, having most girls just ask me for homework or in-class work help, and the only posts on my facebook profile from women being 'happy birthday'

    :'(
    • saxreturns, on 07/07/2008, -2/+6Yeah, that probably doesn't help. However, you'll also probably find that as you do develop relationships of all kinds with girls, you won't get much closer to understanding any of this. I know I haven't.
    • DeeprBlue, on 07/07/2008, -2/+15Aww, it's ok, bud. See the pie chart of the traditional relationship? Notice how "doing it" is actually only 1/6th of the whole pie? See all the extra stuff you have to do? Yeah, it's not always worth it if the other stuff is just pre-coital. Better to skip it until you get to a person that you actually want to spend time doing lousy, cheesy, corny stuff with.
    • Ortheos, on 07/07/2008, -5/+12Because 'going out' is a waste of time and money.
    • Issius, on 07/07/2008, -6/+4That's so sad. And the idea behind it is that instead of ***** ONE person, I can ***** SEVERAL people. And most of the people I've been FWB with, including the current one, are perfectly OK with it. I'm cool with her telling me she hooked up with a guy last night and I'm the one going, well was he hot?

      Oh, also, relationships are annoying. You're expected to call them and talk to them all the time and honestly..I'm just not into that. Though this is coming from a college freshman. I'm sure in a few years I'll want a real relationship again.

      • SDM187, on 07/07/2008, -0/+11"Just give it some time and don't get sucked into a long term relationship with the first girl that accepts you!"

        For typhoon - Dude if there's any one point that you should absolutely heed, it is this one. Do not fall for the comforts of regular sex just because you haven't had it yet and think of nothing else. If one girl accepts you, another will. Very important lesson. Believe that and you'll be fine. That first one will turn out to suck, always and forever. Ask anyone on here. Its extremely rare that anyone marries the first girl they're with. Gotta go out and sample. A long term relationship is not the end all be all, especially at your age. Don't build up this notion in your mind, ya need to look at the big picture cuz one day you'll look back on this time and laugh....
      • Kale, on 07/07/2008, -0/+9^ What he said. First one sucks. I was such an idiot with my first. I bent over backwards and let her walk all over me. Then when it ended (she ended it, and I'm glad), I realized how retarded I acted and developed a spine and would put up with all that junk. This of course made me much more confident, and hence attractive (confidence is always attractive).

        I really hate to say this, but it's like buying a car. Your biggest advantage is the ability to walk away. If a girl starts making unreasonable demands, don't be afraid to walk away. There is a proper and healthy power balance in all relationships, and if you start out letting her hold all the cards, it's near impossible to change later.

        Wow that was much longer than I anticipated. [/rant mode]

      Also, a FWB relationship typically has a lot less pressure involved, when you don't try to make it into the warmup for a marriage. I have had good relationships start as friends. More than where we started out dating. I think it is because you just relax and enjoy their company, and before you know it, you realize you like spending time with them more than with the "dating girl."

  • djtansey, on 07/07/2008, -6/+77I rarely comment on digg posts, but I had to comment on this one because I think represents something in our culture. Why are we so risk adverse? It seems everything we do in this country (writing from USA) is attempted to be done without any risk of hurt to oneself. What are people thinking? "Wow! I can have lots and lots of superficial relationships and have all the sex I want without ever feeling rejected!"?

    I have witnessed this mentality both when in college and now among my peers in the workforce. I think one book, the Paradox of Choice (why more is less), described its roots lucidly. The author's tests showed that people only wanted to make choices that had the most limited effect on their future choices. That, as our opportunities in life have abounded, we've become less willing to commit to any one of them because we aren't determined enough about any one choice to consider it the "best" and worth rejecting the other ones for. Freedom can be debilitating if you don't have the wisdom to know what to do with it... (so can externalizations of happiness -- that it is supposed to be presented to you in the form of some perfect partner instead of created by you with whichever partners you end up with in life.)
    • 2Deluxe, on 07/07/2008, -22/+3Burried for emo.
      Sex is good.
    • eminem213486, on 07/07/2008, -10/+4someone needs to get laid!!!
    • Synyk, on 07/07/2008, -2/+3djtansey, if the "perfect partner" hasn't appeared in one's life, and the need for sex arises, is your freedom more debilitating if you stay at home and masturbate or if you go out and have fun with another who is in the same situation as yourself?
      • djtansey, on 07/07/2008, -0/+4I don't think you got the point... the point is that you can't sit around ***** whatever moves while you wait for the "perfect partner" to appear. Why? For one, perfection is made, not awaited. Second, having happiness be something external removes any control you have over your happiness. (Now, it's not always a bad thing to not have control. We are only capable of so much management. If we try to regiment our lives too much, we'll find that our aims were counterproductive.)

        But the more haunting question should be, how many opportunities to make a "perfect" life have you passed up because you don't feel like doing the work right now? How many times when you're in your 30s and unable to find adequate partners will you wish you had given that one girl/guy a shot? Obviously, this isn't confined to relationships. You don't get very far in life only doing things as long as they suit your whims. Few of us would be literate if we hadn't been forced to learn how to read, for instance.
      • Synyk, on 07/07/2008, -0/+1I was simply asking you a question, which you failed to answer. Now you're asking me to force a relationship and hope it eventually becomes perfect. No thanks, I'll stick to my freedom until I find the one that's right for me.
      • djtansey, on 07/07/2008, -0/+1I failed to answer it because it was a given is a way that indicated that you didn't understand what I was stating. I must not have been clear, I was stating that the "perfect partner" doesn't exist. Your questioned seemed to indicate you thought I believed in such a perfect partner.

        But you raise a good point in this post and in the post below (with the comparison to children) -- a marriage does not have to be unconditional. I should have made that clearer. I only meant to say that being a passive recipient of happiness, instead of creating it in the form of a relationship, leaves many of us wanting, alone, and unfulfilled.
    • naberator, on 07/07/2008, -1/+13that was deep, thanks for reminding me that not everyone on digg has the intelligence of an infant.
      • djtansey, on 07/07/2008, -0/+3Thank you, though I imagine everyone on digg has more intelligence than an infant (even if some never seem inclined to use it is exhaustively.) I was raised on a decade of /. (slashdot.org) and am used to cogent (+5) arguments.

        Another odd paradox of American thought (which much of the world has adopted as "modern" thought) is the belief in the inevitability of some conclusions. That, were you free, you would come to this conclusion. Seems odd, since that seems to limit freedom substantially. So, once some opinion has become a majority opinion, you are either a fool, being fooled, or elitist if you disagree with it. That doesn't mean something "everyone knows" to be true is false, it just means that majority whims must be recognized as such. To give an American example: the majority of would-be Americans didn't decide to declare independence in 1776, a few people did. And they met plenty of resistance. Same thing with the rejection of slavery. Most people have invested themselves in the status quo, as is understandable.

        Here's a quote I picked up in Turkmenistan that I think illustrates this challenge well:
        The distinctions we make between people: beauty, strength, intelligence, these are animal distinctions, they are what we are born with. We are also born with the ability to cultivate our humanity, but it is a choice. And if we never make it, then we die as animals. (Mekan deserves credit for that one, a self-made mechanic with a 2nd grade education who makes $40/month and takes care of his family and his two best friends families because they can't find work. Turkmenistan has an unemployment rate of 60%. Did he have scores of options for a wife? No. Did he make the most with the choices he had? Yes. How many people in "modern" society can say the same?)
      • djtansey, on 07/07/2008, -1/+3Wow, my reasonably long reply just disappeared when I posted it. I was just dropped down to my earlier comment below (which was still yellow even though my edit window had expired.)

        I was raised by America to think the world I'd see abroad would be debilitating due to lack of choice. But I was surprised by what I witnessed when I came back to the U.S., that our affluence of choice never mandates that we learn to do the most with the choices we do have. Unfortunately, the aura of modernity is intoxicating the world. After all, who would turn down the chance to never have to challenge yourself or be challenged by others (because you always have the line "who are you to tell me i'm wrong?" rebuttal)?

        I grew up, for the most part, in China. I spent some of my early adult life in Turkmenistan, where the aura of modernity is still plenty afar thanks to a 60% unemployment rate and the reality created by a self-aggrandizing (and now dead) leader. I will never forget one conversation I had with a driver named Mekan. The quote was mangled by my inadequate Turkmen and Russian, but it went about like this:

        The distinctions we make between people: beauty, strength, intelligence, these are animal distinctions, they are what we are born with. We are also born with the ability to cultivate our humanity, but it's a choice. And if we never make it, then we die as animals.

        Mekan was a self-made mechanic with a 2nd grade education who made $40/month and took care of his family and his two best friends families (because they couldn't find work.) Mekan didn't have that much of a choice in his marriage, or in the fact that his friends were unemployed. But life isn't about the the expanse of opportunities you have available, it's about what you do with whichever are presented to you.
      • djtansey, on 07/07/2008, -0/+2I guess it did appear. I must not have waited my minute.
    • utahnkid, on 07/07/2008, -3/+6Or.

      Some people just like sex and get genuinely bored with the same person. Period.
      • djtansey, on 07/07/2008, -1/+3Boredom is usually an indication that ones vision (and interaction ) is superficial. Kids can get boring, too. But we don't pass them along (hopefully). We recognize that a) they are a responsibility, b) they will go through many of developments and delights, and c) in the end, the product (whatever your concept of self actualized human being you're attempting to raise) was worth the effort. If we are willing to put 18 (or more) years into such a relationship, why aren't we willing to do the same with an equally variegated partner in life?
      • Synyk, on 07/07/2008, -2/+1djtansey, you cannot compare the relationship with a child to the relationship with a spouse...they are two compleeeetely different things!!! and just because you spend so much time with your child does NOT mean you should spend equal time with a spouse. There's a feeling of uncondional love that is evoked when you have a child. However, because you are not related to your spouse, there's always a chance that you find someone who is more suitable, someone who you'd be more happy with. As for your child, you can't "replace" him/her.

        Also, humans are biologically polygamous (unlike ducks, for example), society forces us to deny these roots and seek marriage. (guess why so many people cheat/divorce? The natural instinct kicks in, to have multiple partners.)

        Yes, some relationships end up being perfect when you work at it, I must simply look at my parents to observe this. However, there's no point in forcing a relationship to last and just HOPE it'll end up that way.

        Besides, you're off the point now. The article is about casual sex. Just because some people enjoy casual sex does NOT mean they are afraid to take risks, or to engage in relationships. We all know love and sex don't always go hand in hand. Maybe they're just less stuck-up than you are, and want to enjoy the ***** ride.
      • djtansey, on 07/07/2008, -1/+2I can appreciate the "off topic" comment generally, though I don't think it applies here. Is it off topic to protest a president at their convention? That convention is for him, not against him.

        But, again, you raise a good point: "Just because some people enjoy casual sex does NOT mean they are afraid to take risks, or to engage in relationships." I should have been clear in saying that I don't think ALL people who enjoy casual sex are afraid to take risks, or to engage in relationships. I just don't think that a lot of people have come to their conclusion of "casual sex is good" consciously. Because if you don't know why you do what you do, then you never really make a free choice.

        I have humored the polygamy argument in the past. I haven't seen anything definitive, though. Isn't it just as easy to say, "if many people have managed monogamous relationships, doesn't that mean human's are monogamous?" Or, to use your phrasing, "guess why so many people marry/stay married?" That doesn't mean we should force a relationship, as you warn again. But it does mean that we can be irresponsible with our expectations and inadequate in the work we're willing to put into a relationship.

        Children and spouses are different things, indeed. But parenthood/childhood doesn't have to happen the way we do it, either. Children could be sent away as young teenagers to fend for themselves. Or we could have our grandparents raise them, not the parents. Or the community as a whole. It's all been done. But we attribute something permanent to our relationships with our children, despite the fact that things could be done differently. Couldn't a society just as easily choose tho change the dynamic of a adult relationship?
      • Synyk, on 07/07/2008, -1/+1Personally, I'm satisfied with the current dynamics: there is a a wide variety of possible relationship styles...from marriage to open relationships. Different styles for different people, to each his own. Some love to just have friends with benefits, some have mistresses, some will stay loyal until death...

        and in the end, I'm sure there are as many unhappy husbands/wives as there are unhappy swingers.

        What makes you happy will maybe make others miserable, and vice-versa.

    • PingKing, on 07/07/2008, -0/+3Found a new eBook to download off of Pirate Bay.
    • diggystardust, on 07/07/2008, -0/+11you write waaay too well to be on digg
    • BJLStorm, on 07/07/2008, -1/+2Where do you go to college? I had to read that book for a class too... really good book too!
      • djtansey, on 07/07/2008, -0/+1I went to the University of Maryland, though that book was never required reading. I was bored in a required professional writing course and decided to do some research into this phenomenon that I had witnessed since returning to America (from about a decade abroad in China, Turkmenistan, and elsewhere.) The Paradox of Choice was definitely one of the most cogent source materials I found. I wish everyone would read it.

        Wow. Remembering that class is nice: to have a professor that allowed you to follow an ambition and to have an ambition that is driving enough to do about 10x as much work as was required for the course. That was one of the too-few opportunities that I fully utilized in college.
    • asleepy0, on 07/07/2008, -2/+2I disagree, but am too stoned to argue.

      (Since when has 'friends with benefits' been accompanied with the idea that all relationships among 'friends' lack any meaning?)
      • TheNakedChef, on 07/07/2008, -1/+3I think you don't have much experience with women. A lot of them are great to have sex with and a lot of them are great to be friends with. Not a lot of them are great to have relationships with.
    • diggworldrecord, on 07/07/2008, -0/+2The Paradox of Choice Movie on Google!!!

    • DistantBL, on 07/07/2008, -4/+0Excellent thesis djtansey. Now have the completed assignment in my office by 3:00 on Thursday.
  • ekmather, on 07/07/2008, -2/+7it's RARELY ever "just sex" in a FWB relationship, unless of course it's with Palmela Handerson or you're payin' for it.
  • mjpr, on 07/07/2008, -1/+6some here would do anything for any type of relationship
    Tip: Go out!
    • BJLStorm, on 07/07/2008, -0/+3Tip #2: Don't sit in your room playing TF2 and masterbating until your bored out of your mind.

      Tip #3: Don't be like me (see above Tip #2)
      • inivex, on 07/07/2008, -0/+0This could not have been phrased any better.
  • Zihuatanejo, on 07/07/2008, -1/+9It didn't work on Seinfeld.
  • alisiacam, on 07/07/2008, -2/+11Kudos diggers. I'm impressed by your 'anti friends-with-benefits' thing you've all got going on right now. Very impressed. Maybe so impressed that I ought to be suspicious? Who are you all trying to impress? I figured from the stereotype, that Diggers (who don't have girlfriends) would jump at the 'opportunity' for friends with benefits. guess I was wrong??
  • photobitch, on 07/07/2008, -3/+24doesnnntttt wooorrrrkkkkkkkkk. it does at first then someone gets attached
    • TheNakedChef, on 07/07/2008, -0/+1Too true, girls go for sex first, than they get attached. But at least it's easy to break up, they will not insist on relationship if you tell them you are not interested.
