Friends with Bens

I've always been really serious when it comes to a relationship. I started at 16 with a long term serious relationship.. followed by a second long term relationship.. and now I've decided to casually date. But even now.. I really don't have the energy to even invest in casual dating, maybe I do, but lately I haven't.

I should really be concentrating on school, family, and friends. If I could find someone that blends into this.. then that'd be great. I don't see that happening any time soon though.

So answer me this:

Does "Friends with Benefits" work?

I tried it.. and the times I tried it.. failed miserably. Then again I was emotionally invested in the two people I tried it with. So...maybe if i wasn't emotionally invested?

I really thought, at the time when I tried friends with bens, that I could do it. I really did. I just hate.. when you know you're somewhat compatible with someone, not enough to be in a serious relationship but.. enough to be affectionate and occasionally spend time together. Especially when you're sexually compatible.. ahhh..

I don't knooow.. I think I should be single right now, but I still want to make out.. ahaha
