Ask AI: Explain why friends with benefits is dumb

Friends with benefits is a form of casual relationship that refers to two people engaging in sexual activity while not in a committed relationship. This type of relationship is often considered to be a bad idea because it can be a source of confusion and hurt feelings. People can develop strong emotional attachments even in a casual relationship, which can lead to disappointment and resentment when one of the parties decides to end things. Friends with benefits also has the potential to complicate or even destroy friendships if boundaries are not respected. It can also lead to a lot of miscommunication, as it can be difficult to explain to a friend that the relationship is purely physical.
