What’s your benefit?

A term used to ask someone when they randomly say something mean, rude, or insulting. You can’t say this out of the bloom
Also after you ask what’s your benefit, you must “say what do you gain from that?”

Actual Friends with Benefits

People who are friends first and foremost, but also engage in sexual activity without romantic involvement. There is no intention to ever become a couple or to ever stop being friends, though the benefit of sex may stop at any time.

AWFB cannot be used in place of Fuck Buddies like how FWB is often used, as AFWB is specific to people who would still hang out as real friends if sex was no longer an option. Aka, they're actual friends.
My Actual Friends with Benefits (AFWB) was coming over to catch up on life, help me do my taxes, and bang. But then they found someone they want to start a relationship with, so now we're only catching up and doing my taxes.
