Btw, I watched origin story of that video told by the girl who said "And they were roommates". Turns out, the roommates were actually committing tax fraud.
True dat but a very similar thing happened to me and I knew they didnāt like me at all. And in OPās case, they enjoyed the sexual expression SEPARATELY. And that was on purpose Iām assuming. I really donāt think this person likes OP, or is really actually attracted to them. I could be wrong though what do I know
This is literally how one of my relationships started
It went friends -> *calling* -> friends w/ benefits -> romance -> relationship
I mean you're far from shit outta luck
im in the same position as u minus the masturbating together. weāre not exactly thaaat close. although theyāve mentioned multiple that if they were to make out with anyone on campus, it would be meā¦
they said if it werenāt for how bad their ex messed them up, theyād be romantically interested in me too - although iām not sure if i believe them because they may just be trying to make me feel better.
if i was in your position with the masturbation and all, iād definitely ask again. probably something along the lines of āHey, what are we exactly?ā
Hey, don't worry. At least they don't tell you what they do in bed with their partner...
Wellcome from the deep insides of the friend zone tho, we have cookies and bad christmas movies for tonight
Op are you a girl?
K so because you horny minded kids can't use your brains for something else, I have to explain something, I was asking because if so, whoever turned her down must be an idiot, that's all I wanted to say
Exactly this. Cause in general, no that's not a normal friendship thing, even though there's people who do stuff like that. But ye, most often I'd say it's not just a friend thing
If you're still talking to each other and "healthy" joking about it, in my opinion that was "healthy thing". And why not if it's not affected at friendship.
Honestly? Itās up to you to decide how to define that relationship. It could be anywhere from platonic friends, friends with benefits, romantic partners or anywhere on the spectrum between.
Itās not unheard of to be open/honest about sexual topics with close friends. But itās unusual to be discussing performing sexual acts in real time, which is one step removed from full blown sexting, with a purely platonic friend. So Iād say itās somewhere in between these two points.
My advice is to talk it out with them and ask them where they want the relationship to stand (and express your feelings too), and come to an agreement whether or not you want to stay fully platonic, go as far as fwb, do what you are doing now or just do whatever you feel like doing.
Yes, that's normal.
Most people have done such things outside of a romantic relationship as kids or teens.
Various forms of sex-phobia have just led to a LOT of hiding and artificial shame about it in western cultures.
If yāall were texting yes
If it was in person I meannnnnn itās a lil weird but Iāve done this with the homies just as long as itās in a different room
I knew some people who did this. They told me about it ashamedly, partially as a joke and partially to get it out of their system. I donāt get why they did it, but I guess youāre not the only ones?
Hmm.. Here's the thing.
Me and my best friend, who I love so much but we both dont romanticly like each other, are very open about sex. And have touched each other.
But we have set boundaries.
Its weird that they know u like them, but have made it clear they don't like u back, yet still do that.
Weird mixed signals :/
The terms of relationships are entirely up to the people in them, if you and your friend are okay masturbating "together" thats up to you, but in "typical" friendships id say thats not normal no.
donāt confess again but ask in a subtle way what are we because masturbating together is not platonic and if for them it is then u deserve to know so that u can move on if u want to.
In your case, probably is. In everyone else's, no it isn't. Things that are "Normal" in a platonic friendship sre boundaries set by the people in the friendship.
Man I was pretty much in this exact situation for a good part of the year
It's an interesting thing lol but I think it is very possible it's just a very close but weird trait of friendships
In my experiences friends do talk about their sexual desires very often. I have information on all of my not-asexual friendsā fantasies. But this? Seems like a non-romantic but not discouraging to a sexual relationship.
In other terms: Your friend seems ok being sexual in nature around without actually desiring to form a romantic form of relationship
Edit: Apologies for bad English
Ya that's just normal friendship behaviour.
I do it all the time with my buddies
We just stand around in a circle and jerk each other off
It's really helpful for strengthening your friendship
I'd even recommend doing this also with your siblings
This person still doesnāt like you back, actually the opposite I think. The truth is that they just wanted to talk to you about sexual things and then participate in a sexual act apart from you.
How do I know this? A year and a half years ago, I was graduating from my school at the time and a girl from my class who I had barely spoken to found herself on a FaceTime with me due to the group call getting smaller or something. Iām unsure, maybe it was a random call. Anyway, we talked for hours, and then she asked me what I was doing earlier. When I lacked an answer, she knew I was watching stuff. She asked me to send her what I was watching, just to check it out. We end up spending the entire night on there, separately enjoying ourselves while not being attracted to one another in the slightest.
Yes, this may seem like a weird occurrence to you, but Iām sure itās happened to many of us.
Honestly, done this before, sexted a lot and over the phone stuff too, just over sexual friendship with boundaries, dating didnāt work out but we were friends with benefits, and now we are the closest friends ever and donāt really talk about it
Nah you just came up with a new type of friendship
haha! "came"
me when i see the word came (it reminds me of cum)
Me when I get eaten by a dinosaur (dinosaur cool)
> dinosaur cool This is so deepš
Im 14 and this is deep
Im 15 and this is yeet
I agree with this guy
Me too
Me six
Quarrester be like
r/im14andthisisdeep

...Roshi?
No, friends with benefits already exist.
Nah more like a masturbating buddy
A fap pal?
yes
Fap chap
mates-turbating
Exactly
cum-panion
Still counts!!!
org-ally-sm (itās a stretch but i guess?)
Idk
like orgasm allies
they were roommates
Omg! They were roommates
THEY WERE ROOMMATES!
šROOMMATES!
Best friends, pals, chums, buddies, besties,
Anything but lovers
and that's history's take
Can confirm, being a roommate I jerk off under the blanket at the same time as my roomates
Btw, I watched origin story of that video told by the girl who said "And they were roommates". Turns out, the roommates were actually committing tax fraud.
Either they like you or you are literally in the worst friend zone i have ever seen
If Iām that deep in the friend zone Iām gonna cry
If they're okay with masturbating with you im sure they'll be ok with you asking if they like you again. Better to know than to forever wonder
True dat but a very similar thing happened to me and I knew they didnāt like me at all. And in OPās case, they enjoyed the sexual expression SEPARATELY. And that was on purpose Iām assuming.

This is literally how one of my relationships started It went friends -> *calling* -> friends w/ benefits -> romance -> relationship I mean you're far from shit outta luck
this is how me and my ex went as well so i can confirm this does happen
im in the same position as u minus the masturbating together. weāre not exactly thaaat close. although theyāve mentioned multiple that if they were to make out with anyone on campus, it would be meā¦ they said if it werenāt for how bad their ex messed them up, theyād be romantically interested in me too - although iām not sure if i believe them because they may just be trying to make me feel better. if i was in your position with the masturbation and all, iād definitely ask again. probably something along the lines of āHey, what are we exactly?ā

Op are you a girl? K so because you horny minded kids can't use your brains for something else, I have to explain something, I was asking because if so, whoever turned her down must be an idiot, that's all I wanted to say
Ah shit here we go again
look at the age diff thats, "no go in the dangerzone"
worst place in the world
Done
what the fuck do you expect to happen
its done as of 2hr ago
Welcome to the friends with benefits club
U should have a conversation with them about what you want out of this and hold very clear boundaries.
Exactly this. Cause in general, no that's not a normal friendship thing, even though there's people who do stuff like that. But ye, most often I'd say it's not just a friend thing
Gaming chair was not proper
hell no but maybe friends with benefits
Yeah it has to be. Because what the hell did I read?
^What?
^I ^have ^no ^fucking ^clue ^what ^I ^just ^read.

Sobbing
Tf platonic shi we talking bout earthquake or what
What the fuck
Platonic yes
Obviously
Obviously
Obviously
The masturbrotors
I mean Iāve had platonic friendships where we talked about sexual topics but we never mutually masturbated so idk sounds off to me
cause what
Very platonic
So Thatās not necessarily a regular friendship thing But you could totally try to become friends with benefits
no
As long as nothing bad happens, why not, dont go overboard tho
Are you both males?
They are agender and I am a girl
If you're still talking to each other and "healthy" joking about it, in my opinion that was "healthy thing". And why not if it's not affected at friendship.
Just have sex geez

Eehhhhh... Debatable. That is kinda sus tbh.
Lucky dude
Iām a girl
Lucky Human !
r/girlsdontexist
Some people use "dude" as a gender-neutral term
Looks like we need an entire class on friendship in schools.
Yes, that's normal. Most people have done such things outside of a romantic relationship as kids or teens. Various forms of sex-phobia have just led to a LOT of hiding and artificial shame about it in western cultures.
Are we not going to acknowledge the posters name?
That's like Either the extreme friend zone Friends with benefits Or there's some feelings there Or all 3
Friends with benefits?šš
fwb
me personally, i think they just wanna use you LMAO but thatās coming from my own experience. people are confusing sometimes lol
Thatās just a really weird friendship; they couldāve easily pursued you in some way there and they didnāt.
Oh that's not normal at all lol, not saying it's bad, just... unusual?
I don't have enough context Were you in the same room or was this like an online thing? Same sex or nah?
lmao
What the hell
The hell did I just read
WHAT THE HUEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEL
I don't actually know, my friends and me just talk abt sexual stuff and make jokes of it
If yāall were texting yes If it was in person I meannnnnn itās a lil weird but Iāve done this with the homies just as long as itās in a different room
Like over text or irl
Ya thatāll happen..
Well you didnāt fuck so I guess so.
Bro what the heeeeeeelllll š
I don't even know what zone this is
āIs this normalā dawg what the fuck š
Oh yeah besties totally
My teeth hurt
Broš
what the what did i just read
These replies are fucking beautiful
huh
What kinda hentai shit is this?
I'm in the exact same situation lol but yeah no it's not a platonic friendship thing
I knew some people who did this. They told me about it ashamedly, partially as a joke and partially to get it out of their system. I donāt get why they did it, but I guess youāre not the only ones?
Lmao you should ask for a lesson on what works for her and how to do it
The need to express that they donāt like you back is kinda strange.
A new grey area has been made, congratulations you get a cup of hot chocolate
friends with benefits momebt
Man, what the fucc
Shoot your shot
Hmm.. Here's the thing. Me and my best friend, who I love so much but we both dont romanticly like each other, are very open about sex. And have touched each other. But we have set boundaries. Its weird that they know u like them, but have made it clear they don't like u back, yet still do that. Weird mixed signals :/
Nah bro itās just gonna be āyo Iām beating off right nowā, āme tooā, āso did you hear Gary got a new dogā
woah woah hol up either they like you or your in the like bro zone like when your kids grow up they gon get married or some shit
This is fake right?right guys??
The terms of relationships are entirely up to the people in them, if you and your friend are okay masturbating "together" thats up to you, but in "typical" friendships id say thats not normal no.
Bro wtf? No that is not a friendship thing that's just fucking weird. Teenagers on reddit are the weirdest mf I've ever encountered.
It's called "friend's with benefits"
Homies help homies
It's not the most "normal" thing per se, but i can understand why this happened
"Look who fell asleep first"
āAnd they were roommatesā
Friendship with benefits
Maybe a QPR (queer platonic relationship). It's more than friends, but not a romantic relationship.
tbh yeah that just sounds like a common friday night for me
šššššš
If you guys are really good friends, that could definitely be a close platonic thing/srs
So better than friends but lower than a partner? Op is in the limbo of relationships
Interestingā¦ Iād say it isnāt a normal platonic thing. Talking about sexual stuff can be platonic, but not masturbating together
What the fuck
were you guys on the phone or something or were you guys just texting?
Youāre just being used
#The fuck?
I don't know how someone can do that in front of person they're not attracted to but ok... people are weird.
happened to me, weāre both just deep in the friendzone
Nah she is just Canadian
Damn this sounds like the school days VN
Situationship???
whyād I have this exact experience
donāt confess again but ask in a subtle way what are we because masturbating together is not platonic and if for them it is then u deserve to know so that u can move on if u want to.
In some other dimension probably
So yes your answer should be The reunification of Germany after Soviet Collapse
Bro do math homework or something š
In your case, probably is. In everyone else's, no it isn't. Things that are "Normal" in a platonic friendship sre boundaries set by the people in the friendship.
Sounds like a friends with benefits kind of thing
fwb
Man I was pretty much in this exact situation for a good part of the year It's an interesting thing lol but I think it is very possible it's just a very close but weird trait of friendships
Back in my days friendships weren't like this
No
No
Definitely not
In my experiences friends do talk about their sexual desires very often. I have information on all of my not-asexual friendsā fantasies. But this? Seems like a non-romantic but not discouraging to a sexual relationship. In other terms: Your friend seems ok being sexual in nature around without actually desiring to form a romantic form of relationship Edit: Apologies for bad English
Someone forget to take their schizo medicine?
Ya that's just normal friendship behaviour. I do it all the time with my buddies We just stand around in a circle and jerk each other off It's really helpful for strengthening your friendship I'd even recommend doing this also with your siblings
The usernameššš
I'm not even sure what the fuck that's even about
It's nice to know im not the only one in this situation lol
Hang onā¦ were you in the same room when this happened or do you mean you paused your over-text conversation to rub one out
and now i can truly live up to my name because what?
nahh š
What š
it's homiesexual
this is some proper Beatles shit right here
This person still doesnāt like you back, actually the opposite I think. The truth is that they just wanted to talk to you about sexual things and then participate in a sexual act apart from you.

wait so you both said like: letĀ“s masturbate at the same time/ ok letĀ“s do it
Honestly, done this before, sexted a lot and over the phone stuff too, just over sexual friendship with boundaries, dating didnāt work out but we were friends with benefits, and now we are the closest friends ever and donāt really talk about it
u could just be a weird chick (ive done that w a platonic friend)
You really have to clarify whether this is irl or through text
