I am interested in having sex with one of my friends. Usually I need some kind of emotional attachment for sex, so this works out. Is it worth it? Is there any amount of open communication that can make it OK? Along with, you know, mobilizing and donating to social justice orgs and ugly-crying. But on to the nitty-gritty of the chitty chitty. But not everyone can mime their way to great sex, like me.
As long as we are honest about our intentions and adjust our realities accordingly. Just be honest with yourself. If sex to you means commitment or picking out matching tracksuits, you might want to rethink fluid exchange as the next relationship step. If, however, sex to you is just a more pleasant way of getting through the latest Will Ferrell movie, then by all means, have at it. Be as upfront as you can, and if you notice bad feelings starting to surface, then have the fortitude to pull back, talk about it and be willing to return to platonic friendship.
Besides, what are friends for, really, if not to tell you when you have spinach in your teeth and to give you an occasional reach around? Anna Pulley is a RedEye contributor. Got a question of your own?
