As it is today, it is not working out as I had hoped yet but is much better than the last 10-15 years of being married. My life now has much more freedom and much less stress.

Of course it's achievable
As long as it's what both people involved want....

For me this statement is very very vague. Achievable by whom? The one seeking FWB or who?

Insist on equality. If women don't have to try very hard for sex why should men?

We should only have to swim oceans and climb mountains for really really serious, not merely sex. Women don't. Why should men?

Equal work for equal pay!

Men are even willing to "commision mountain divisions and ocean divisions for really really serious", what are women willing to do?

" I definitely wouldn't be caught dead between the legs of any woman over 40, much less naked."

This comment is definitely insulting to older women. I dated a guy 22 years younger. What's the problem? We're both adults. Do you think you're better than a
woman a few years older than you? Can you say BS?

I have known both men and women who have FWB. Get with the times! Many people don't want a relationship, they've been there, done that. As long as both parties know the rules, what is the problem with 2 consenting adults having SEX.

You see your doctor, get checked and ask your fwb to do the same.

Why is everybody still thinking like it's the 1940's or something? It's just SEX!!!

By the way, it's NOT what I want but I have no problem with others doing it.
