FWB: Ever tried it? How'd it go?

Movies always say they don't work and end with people developing feelings and getting hurt, but is it possible to work out in real life?

I just started a no strings attached relationship with this guy who's my ex and also a really close friend. We were good friends before and after we tried dating but broke up because we realized we didn't actually love eachother and wouldn't work out in a long term way.

Only problem is we'd still been kinda flirty and attracted to eachother. We both move off to college/gap year in a few weeks and so we decided to try out a very casual sex+affection+companionship type temporary "relationship." We cuddle and kiss and play piano and cook and have a lot of sex but we don't actually love eachother lol

And it's been perfect! EXACTLY right for our annoying inability to be together or apart, and it'll have a natural end to it when we move so nobody has to be the one to call it off!
