How would it make you feel if someone asked you to be his/her friend with benefits?

Considering you were single, of course.

Update:

@Rosa: Not some random person, I mean a friend :P

    If I didnt have emotional feelings for that person I think I could if I found them attractive and knew they were clean (no stds), I dont think you can do it with someone you would want to be in a one on one relationship with tho, it would be too hard facing them if they didnt feel the same towards you.

    But, everyones mind is different, so what works for me wont or may not work for the next person.

    I have had friends with benefits and had no problem with it.

    Intensely awkward. And then I would politely decline, no matter my feelings on the subject. It would be somewhat objectifying and rather callous. I would assume that this would be a rather close friend, and they would ignore any feelings you may, or may not, hold. I also find the matter rather repulsive because they are simply satisfying a base desire with no responsibility. Of course I would also be kind of flattered (depending on said person's taste in appearance...).

    On a side note, I am probably not the best person to answer this question.

    It depends on the girl asking. I may be flattered. I am not sure. I have had some ladies tell me they were looking for this. I never think about it until later. I dont have the courage to say this to any ladies.

    Depends on if I was interested or not.. I'm not wanting a relationship or everyday thing, so that would be preferable. I wouldn't be all "omigod, how dare you!".
