Do FWBs occur only among college students?

• A. Yes, only in college settings.
• B. They occur primarily among teenagers.
• C. They occur only within urban populations.
• D. No, FWBs can also occur among adults in their 50s, 60s, and beyond.

Answer: (D)

FWBs are a casual, non-exclusive arrangement based on friendship and mutual boundaries, not on a specific age or student status. Because this type of relationship hinges on personal preferences and consent rather than being tied to a particular life stage, it can happen at any adult age. People in their 50s, 60s, and beyond can form FWBs just as younger people can, provided both parties agree and communicate their boundaries.

That’s why the statement that FWBs occur no matter the age and can include older adults is the best choice. The other options try to tie FWBs to college life, teenagers, or urban settings, which isn’t accurate—these relationships aren’t restricted to any single group or location.
