The focus of the research is to understand the role of interpersonal communication in building, maintaining, and managing friends with benefits relationships, including the social penetration process, as explained in the penetration theory, which is clearly seen in how individuals gradually share personal information, starting from more superficial aspects to more intimate ones.
