I have done the FWB thing. As has been said, if you are honest and upfront, it can work. When it was someone with whom I was very good friends before the sex was introduced, it worked VERY well. But someone who was not already in my tiny circle of trust? Not so much.
Oh and I would feel flattered. First because he must think I'm attractive and second, he must think I am mature and smart enough to carry it off. I know, that second is probably hooey but it works for me.
*laughs*
Lioness, like some others who've responded to your queries, I've been there and done that. I've come to the conclusion that it's very much a physical/personal decision. Was I complimented? Yes, I was but that doesn't mean I took up any or all offers. The biggest detriment that I see in being or having a FB is the baggage that may arise from repeated liasons. I avoid those scenes at all costs, no matter how much I might want to be with the other person. Not all are capable of keeping recreational sex between friends, recreational.
My two cents worth.

Oh my, I am really overwhelmed by massive responses.. Thanks a lot guys! My workload got me a busy for a while hence the delay in my response. Sorry for that.
Ed: can I sum it up to flattered? =) From what I gathered, FB is a relationship without any commitments. So, it’s a no.
Queen: Sexual attraction is more like it. So, you mean it depends?
Anon: Well noted. Based on some articles, FB is only applicable for single people. A no.
Bill: Welcome to my blog. Yup, it is an arrangement all right, and sticking by the rules. You fell in love? It was a heartbreak waiting to happen.. A yes.
Missunderstood: ups, I missed some important details. This is in real life. I am currently single and have emotional tendencies. Does that mean he only remembered you when he felt like doing it? It depends.
SeanRenaud: welcome to my blog! A yes. Women tend to be
clingy and dramatic indeed. But as bill said, men are not exempted.
Husbandhater: LOL, we’d look forward to that. I mean the FB, not the divorce. ;-) So that could be it depends.
Dazed: Hmm... I wonder for how long such legs would be crossed? It depends.
Minniemouse: welcome to my post! BF turning into FBs? I haven’t thought that would be possible. A yes.
MsBradford: maybe you just don’t notice. =) A yes.
Ninjapirate: welcome to my blog!! better than nothing and too much to resist... Interesting. What if there were no feelings involved?
CW: It depends if there’s a spark (chemistry/ mutual attraction, I suppose?).
Mom: I guess the terms changed, but it’s still basically the same? A yes.
LadyGamer: Good friends as an FB. I wonder how it feels like mingling with FWBs... I don’t think I could face them in public, as if nothing is going on. LOL. A yes
Lioneljay: avoiding monogamy for a while.. hmmm.. Seems like a yes to me.. I am sure some SC members would be willing to, but then, your not being single is an obstacle. =)
Freespirit4u: welcome to my blog! It seems that going into such an arrangement is not very easy.. There are some danger zones that must be avoided. A yes too.
FIRST OF ALL, SURPRISED, AT THIS POINT, CONSIDER IT. MARRIED,YES, FAITHFUL FOR 28 YEARS. BUT NOW, GIVEN CIRCUMSTANCES, IT MAY BE TIME FOR OTHER CONSIDERATIONS.
sorry about the miss spelling on the previous post.

BEAST HEmET GAY LICKS, PYSCHO SEXUAL PRISON SEX...
I'd be okay with it when I'm not in a relationship and not seeking a serious one. If I'm already in a relationship it would depend on our level of commitment to each other and whether we have an open relationship. Will Smith and Jada Pinkett have an open marriage with an interesting twist. Either can sleep with whomever upon the other's approval of the extramarital partner.
I understand that Smith and Penelope Cruz, co-stars in a recent movie, wanted to fuck. I don't know whether they did but, as I recall, Jada approved.
One woman I met on a phone chat line. We had phone sex briefly before exchanging numbers, and met about 45 minutes later. Just as we discussed, I waited nude in my living room for her and she came over with a bathrobe and nothing underneath. She was a pretty, dignified-looking woman in her late 30s. As soon as I let her in she dropped the robe and we were both nude, kissing in my living room. What a hot way to meet. We soon headed to my bedroom and 69'ed and fucked each other silly.
Another time, I met a woman on that line. We chatted briefly and exchanged numbers. I went to her place about 30 minutes later. She let me in. We went to her bedroom, kissed and stroked. Eventually she was riding my hard dick and making noises like a mad woman as I sucked on her tits. She rode my dick as if it were a mechanical bull. It was noisy sex. This woman was horny. She hadn't had sex since her husband died in a car accident two years before. I agree with the country song lyrics, "lonely women make the best lovers."
Oh my, I personally don't think FB's work out because sex - physically - causes women to develope romantic feelings and attachments to their sex partner (just a chemical thing). Personally I know God ordained sex for marriage and only for marriage, but I'm not gonna even start to yell about that, more like - I'll show you that it doesn't work if I wanna do anything (better tactic I think - don't you?).
Anyways, I'm just gonna answer the question that was asked, because I'm that cool (haha)...
I would be a little upset - because he would be wanting sex without the strings, like wanting candy from a store without paying for it. I might be a little intrigued. I probably wouldn't do it, but would totally consider it in times when I was out of my mind... it happens a few times a month.
