Should You Tell Your Friends About Your Fuck Buddy?

24 Mar 2014 - 13:42

This is a question that many of us will have tackled at many times in the past and may be having to consider again or even for the first time right now.

I am for the most a believer in the honestly is the best policy mind set however there can be times that this philosophy can be at times stressed and modified as such. The topic of sharing my fuck buddy relationships is one of those times. I have found that there are a great deal of people that will not understand or respect my choices in regards to my sexual relationships. This leads to long conversations where I have to justify myself to them and often do not get anywhere with the argument anyway making the whole thing pointless anyway. So I have come to the conclusion that the best course of action is to be careful who I tell what.

This comes down to a few key factors that I have determined to be the best why deciding how much to share with someone are the following:

1. How close are they to you? This is the biggy. If you are close with someone then sharing more private information with them becomes more natural feeling. This is because the closer they are to you the more likely they are to understand the full context of the decision that you have made and the reasons for it. Also you can more likely change their views due to your shared respect for each other.

2.What is the basis of your relationship? If you met through work and you work in an office or similar circumstance then their is a fair chance that your boss will not understand your choices and this might cause you career problems. Even outside of work there are times you might want to keep shut in case it will have unwanted results. For example around family of your friends you can often come into trouble with their family and this might even cause issues with your friend long term.

3. Are they cool? This is phrased a little light heartedly but the point stands which is that you can often feel instinctively if someone will understand your sexual choices. This factor should not be used alone too often because is it by no means 100% reliable but the same time should be used when possible to better guege how much to share.

So in conclusion there are times that you should avoid sharing your sexual choices but at the same time you should aim to find at least a few people oto share with. There will be times that you need to bounce feelings and thoughts off of someone and so making sure you have that person you can talk to about your sex life will be invaluable. Do not fall into the trap of keeping your thoughts and feelings wrapped up tightly inside.
