3 reasons why you should never sleep with your friend

Sometimes it’s okay to just wonder what if.

Picture this.

You have this friend that people always tell you to have a relationship with or even just hook up with. The two of you always brush it off and have so far not bothered to pay the idea too much thought.

The more your friends keep pressuring the two of you to be together though, the more you actually think about it. One day the two of you are hanging out having a great time and before you know it, you’re waking up next to them in bed.

You both get up and are not sure how to act around each other. He drops a ‘that was really great’ comment and you’re standing there thinking how that was the worst mistake to make.

There are friends with benefits that work seamlessly but others usually aren’t so smooth sailing and could damage your friendship in the long run.

Here are some reasons why sleeping with your friend isn’t the greatest idea.

1.Things can get awkward real fast

So now that the two of you have crossed that bridge, should you define your relationship now or was it just a one-time thing?

Are you going to be friends with benefits now, because you don’t play such games so he better come correct? Only thing is he might not feel the same way.

2.Your friendship may never be the same again

Your friendship may change a little bit after the two of you see each other naked. You’ve crossed a bridge that the two of you didn’t initially think you would cross in the first place.

3.Feelings

It is possible to get romantic feelings for your friend after you sleep together and maybe your friend may not feel like taking things to the next level.
