  Or you can just let people do what they want, OP.
context: People can like other people without wanting them to be a major part of their lives >
  
  if you like them then why wouldnt you want to try to be with them though >
  
  Some people just want to have sex and not deal with the commitment. If you want commitment get that out of who your taking to before sex, and if they don’t give just move on because chances are the only reason they’re even talking to you is to score. >
  
  There's a difference between platonic love, romantic love, and sexual attraction.
  A person is complicated and people are exponentially more complicated than a person.
  Different types of relationships (whether that's being a friend, being romantically involved, being sexually involved, and any combination of all or none of those or any other number of other factors) fit different groups of people. >
  
  I don't date because I'm mature enough to realize I'm not ready for a relationship; don't have the living situation I want, don't have the money I want, don't have the free time and attention I'd want to be willing to give to my partner, etc. I still want sex though, so that's why building trusting relationships with friends I can have sex with is the goal for me right now. 
  Being interested in a monogamous, dedicated relationship with someone and being interested in sex are two wildly, completely different things. >
  
  i like how you understand your situation anf want best for any future partner. im not the most sexual person so ive never felt the need to try and make a sexual relationship so i just didn’t understand >
  
  Please... I must... refrain... from.. >!haha virgin!<.. fuck. 
  Yeah sex is fun, and it doesn't need to have the strings of relationship and commitment attached. People cheat in part to explore a part of themselves they never were able to. I'm getting that exploration out of my system too, so I'll know who I'm compatible with when I meet them. >
  
  Did you just openly admit to cheating? >
  
  You can't cheat if you're not in a relationship so idk how you got that. To clarify, no I'm not a cheater. >
  
  sexual attraction  ≠  romantic attraction
  Just because someone wants to sleep with somebody else, doesn't necessarily mean they want to date them. >
  
  I don't have enough time for that many girlfriends, plus if I date them all they will all want to move in and I will be in a weird harem situation, I think friends with benefits is the best way to go. >
  
  It’s not always that simple >
  
  expand on that though, i honestly dont see why people do it >
  
  Maybe you don’t want to lose a friendship, or it’s truly just sex and nothing else. Sexual feelings don’t equal romantic feelings. >
  
  thats true. ive never felt that before ig it just dont make sense to me >
  
  
  If you find someone attractive, why not like… date them?
  
  Because the fact that someone is physically attractive and I want to have sex with them, doesn't mean that I want to be with them? It's a really hard concept to understand, I know... >
  
  ik that’s sarcasm but it genuinely doesnt make sense to me 😭 >
  
  I think you just don't like FWB, probably due to a bad situation. That's OK. You don't have to take part in that at all.
  Demanding everyone make you understand their romantic relationships isn't a way to move on. It's just lashing out at random people.
