Recently I have heard the new movie "No Strings Attached" receiving a lot of comments and mostly from guys. Not that they want to see the chick flick but that they want girls they associate with to be just like Natalie Portman in the film. If you haven't seen the previews for this movie yet, it is about two friends of the opposite sex, Ashton Kutcher and Portman as they agree to be "friends with benefits" and nothing more. As the movie goes on, Kutcher's character ends up wanting to take it a step further and take his friend on a date.
So the question is... can any of us really handle a strictly "friends with benefits" situation. It seems to me that only a select few can handle it when they are on the same page. This "relationship" can go in a couple different directions.
Scenario 1: Guy tells girl he likes her. But girls don't get confused, this just means they want you to keep coming back for sex. If they had feelings for you, wouldn't that mean they want to have a real relationship with you? Sit back and think about that one.
Scenario 2: Similar to the situation above, if the girl is told they are liked, that is all it will take. If the guy is not telling the truth, which most of the time they are not, the girl will go insane. The girl will say she can handle it, but she can't. Just wait until their guy hooks up with someone else. All hell breaks loose. And by loose, I mean you will probably get cut loose by your guy because he didn't sign up for a crazy girlfriend. Sooner or later she will want more, end of story.
Scenario 3: The guy falls for the girl. This one is rare and is also shown in the movie. Now to some, this is shocking. Even if the girl starts to fall for the guy, I would hope she will not say it first. She will wait until the guy says it. Lets say the girl does not show those feelings towards the guy and the guy develops them first, this is when he may want more. It is called "the chase". The girl will play it cool and show no feelings as Portman does, and Kutcher began to want the only thing he didn't have yet. He had the sex but now he wanted the relationship.
Girls: If you are willing to take a walk on the wild side, go for "friends with benefits". If you are incapable, do not. If you are like any female I know, you will be stuck in this and it will be hard FOR YOU to get out of. If you are capable, do not let him get in your head and play the game right back and be the chase.
