I obviously don't have this kind of control. I have never had either kind of situation in my life, and think it would be difficult for me to do.
Why would I want to have sex with a friend? Not unless I wanted something more to come of it over time. Otherwise it's a waste of my time. What, just to have sex? Thanks, I'll pass.
And fuck buddies? Being someone's sex toy on call? To hell with that. I deserve better.
I can see what the difference would be to someone who could handle this though.
The FWB there is an emotional connection, as friends.
The fuck buddies, you kind of like the person, but wouldn't be friends with them if it wasn't for the sex.

Whether we write or speak or do but look
We are ever unapparent. What we are
Cannot be transfused into word or book.
Our soul from us is infinitely far.
However much we give our thoughts the will
To be our soul and gesture it abroad,
Our hearts are incommunicable still.
In what we show ourselves we are ignored.
The abyss from soul to soul cannot be bridged
By any skill of thought or trick of seeming.
Unto our very selves we are abridged
When we would utter to our thought our being.
We are our dreams of ourselves, souls by gleams,
And each to each other dreams of others' dreams.
Fernando Pessoa, 1918
