don't do it!

As if you needed another reason to just say "no" to hooking up with your best friend.

Another story about the drawbacks of friends with benefits is available here.

An excerpt:

"The Michigan State study found that friends with benefit relationships often reach the point where one friend starts to develop feelings for the other, but only one-tenth of these arrangements actually end in a full-scale romance and unreciprocated feelings can lead to the demise of the friendship."

Be careful!
