Is it really possible to have casual sex with no strings?
YouthNet (the charity behind TheSite) has been working with an organisation called OnePlusOne and today announced some new research about 'friends with benefits'.
What do you guys reckon? Have you ever been in a friend with benefits type situation that's worked out or does one side always end up wanting more?
Be interesting to hear what you guys think :chin:

YouthNet (the charity behind TheSite) has been working with an organisation called OnePlusOne and today announced some new research about 'friends with benefits'.
One in three young people (33%) have had a ‘friend with benefits’ according to new findings published today by relationships charity OnePlusOne in partnership with YouthNet.
However, of the 1,000 16 to 24-year-olds who took part in the research carried out by ICM, over half (53%) of those who admitted to having had regular sex with a friend were secretly hoping it would develop in to something more serious.
