(#4) Secrets Don't Make Friends, But They Keep Friends
Want to come out of your libidinous rendezvous unscathed? Don't tell a soul. Not your best friend, not your mom — no one. No one can know. Sure, they'll promise they won't tell anyone, but they will because they're humans.
No one can know; no one can keep a secret forever.

(#2) There's No Room For Jealousy
See your friend hooking up with that hot dude who's more attractive than the Old Spice guy with water running down that silky skin? Yeah, you most certainly do, and your friend's eating it up, one spoonful at a time.
But, you're just friends. So, whatever, right?

(#1) Act Normal In Public
None of those cutesy, flirty, kissy shenanigans can go on in public. Can you imagine all the backlash you're going to get when you hand-feed your FWB some spinach and artichoke dip? And just when you realize what you're doing, with your friends gawking at you, mouths agape, your hand finds a new trajectory, nearly missing Friend McGee's mouth and smearing dip all over their cheek, while you quickly try to cover up with a lame story about shooing a fly off their face.

(#8) For Non-Snugglers Only
Whew! The best hooking up yet! Now roll out of bed and leave. You don't get to stay there, laying in your own filth and sweat, spooning your buddy while you drift off for a half an hour, giving ample time for both your minds to wander into the netherworlds of relationships and love.
Before you know it, you'll be stuck deciding between roses and azaleas for the bridal bouquet. This is strict business, so pony up and get out.

(#3) Neediness Is Not Attractive
It doesn't matter what gender you are; no one wants a clingy, needy, attention-obsessed person.
Do you think your FWB is going to appreciate the 45 texts you send her every day while you try to make "casual" conversation with your FWB and outline your entire day? Depending on how exclusive you are, probably not.

(#5) Don't Go On Dates With Your FWB
This relationship is about hooking up, so don't go making it emotional with dinner and roses and long walks on the beach. Keep it strictly booty-call business to avoid anyone feeling like they need to muster out the L-word.
And even if you know for sure you're not going to fall in love with your under-the-sheets buddy, just imagine what it's going to do for your relationship if you go out to dinner together. You order nachos as an appetizer, and your FWB shocks you with their eating habits. Good luck getting it up after that.
