Have you ever had a friend w/ benefits? If so, did/didn't work?

Question

Got out of a bad log term relationship about a year ago, and I miss sex. I become friends with a coworker, sexual tension and chemistry is there. The sex is GREAT (passionate & hot) Though I feel like that's all I want right now, just sex and not a relationship. Could it work? 
Also, he sends mixed signals saying we're not going to have sex because of his religious standing, but  we end up having sex anyways (initiated by him). Would just like some input, as I've never found myself in this situation.

Answer

I had just gotten out over a guy I had been with on and off for about of year that my best friend slept with while I was in the room when I began my friends with benefits relationship. He wasn't interested in a relationship due to work, and I just didn't want to get hurt. We met on valentines day, started sleeping together a bit over a month later and by Easter we had feelings for each other. It's hard to remain unattached and just keep things physical. Someone, if not both people, always end up wanting something more from my personal experience and second hand experience.

Answer

There's nothing wrong with enjoying sex and being single:) 
But it should be what you want! I got out of a bad relationship two years ago and regrettably I started having sex as a way to feel loved and valued but you've gotta shake off anythin like that
Enjoy being single:> 
And if that guy is saying he doesn't want to have it but then initiates it you may want to talk to him about that. 
Just be safe ?

Answer

We were dating we broke up and a year later we decided to be fwb and a year after that we got back together, and are still together.

Answer

I married my fwb:)

Answer

I have had two fwb.  One turned out great. We both just wanted fun and great sex and we both moved on and remained friends after the fact.  The other one caught feelings and wouldnt leave me alone. He followed me, was generally insane etc.  so just be careful to keep lines drawn.  Overall I do not regret either friend with benefits.

Answer

I did, it was just... bad. I don't regret it but I was very immature and he was kind of a douchebag. So just proceed with caution!
