I'm in a kinda FWB relationship but I want more?
For the last 7 months I've been having casual sex with a friend I've known a while who I like a lot. I've recently started to have feelings for him. I told him how I feel and he tells me that he feels something for me but he is not sure what his feelings are. I offered him a life line on feelings and told him he felt lust and no more but his reply was 'I don't know...I wish I did'. I'm so confused! I think he is in a relationship but I'm not sure. I told him I thought this and that we have to stop before he gets serious with his G/F and he says that I don't have to pull away from him. I discovered 3 weeks ago that I'm pregnant (protection failed us) and he has been very supportive towards me. We both decided not to continue with the pregnancy as it's not the right time but I think I've changed mind. Will we ever be together or am I wasting my time with him? I really really like him and don't want to lose him. The thought of him not in my life actually terrifies me. Please help me
Do guys have some kind of "bro code" for this kinda thing?
I like this guy a lot. I just started talking to him last night, but I've known him for a while. I know him through his best friend though. His best friend and I are "friends with benefits", though if me and the other guy got together, we wouldn't be anymore. I used to have feelings for my FWB, he did too but we got over it. Do guys have an unwritten rule that says they can't date their best friends FWB?
Does my fwb have feelings for me?
*PLEASE DON'T TELL ME FWB RELATIONSHIPS ARE BAD ETC WE BOTH MUTALLY AGREED TO THIS * Basically, have a FWB( Friend with benefits) relationship with this guy for the past month or so, knew him a little while before that. Thing is, we were kinda friends, then ended up sleeping together, this happened a few times in the space of a week but only when we were drunk ( YES WE BOTH WANTED IT I DID NOT GET TAKEN ADVANTAGE OF ) Confused on what label to put on our relationship we both MUTUALLY decided with friends with benefits. But we went a few weeks without sleeping together, hanging out, kissing, acting like we're in a relationship. He's introduced me to his family, not as a gf just as a friend. Introduces me to his friends also. We meet up a couple times a week and hang out in public, he doesn't make sexual advances, talks about sex a lot but he's kinda a sexual person, we usually end up kissing. I can tell he cares about me, he tells me he does, also always makes sure than I'm ok and not feeling awkward around his friends etc. He's mentioned a few times he misses me when he's not with me and that he doesn't know why. Very open about feelings towards me, calls me beautiful, compliments, etc. HE KNOWS HE DOESN'T HAVE TO TELL ME SWEET THINGS TO SEDUCE ME. Basically I don't feel as if this is normal FWB behaviour, although I'm not complaining. He's only out of a relationship and I love having him as my FWB and friend, but it confuses me sometimes. ADVICE PLEASE?!
I'm developing feelings for my friend with benefits. What should I do?
Okay, first of all, of course you're developing feelings for your FWB. That's not bad at all. In fact, it's natural. I've developed feelings for an FWB too. Physical intimacy opens the door to emotional intimacy. There's nothing wrong with that. It's the way people are wired.It doesn't mean you have to stop being FWB. I'm about to tell you something that might bake your noodle, so hold on tight. Ready? Here goes! Your emotions do not rule your life. You can get "feelings" for someone, and your feelings don't have to mean you're in a romantic relationship. You make decisions. Not your feelings--you. Your emotions don't control you.Yes, you can develop emotions for an FWB and still choose to be in an FWB relationship. Just because you have feelings, that doesn't necessarily mean you are compatible romantic partners, and it doesn't necessarily mean you have to start dating. It also doesn't mean your friend has to return your feelings! An emotion on your part is not an obligation on his.You aren't exclusive. That means it's okay if he has, or wants to have, other lovers. If you feel jealous, you can talk to him about it, but you're not entitled to demand sexual exclusivity if that isn't what he wants. Jealousy is an emotion that's rooted in some other emotion--usually insecurity or fear of losing something you believe belongs to you. He doesn't belong to you, and that's okay.Now, if you want something more, talk to him! There's no rule that says you can't. Communication is just as important in an FWB relationship as it is in a conventional relationship!If he doesn't, then you'll have to decide if whatever discomfort you have outweighs the benefit from having sex with him. If you want to go on having sex, have sex. If you don't, don't. But either way, remember: he is not obligated to have the same feelings you have. He is not doing something wrong to you if he doesn't return your feelings or doesn't want the same thing you want.
My fwb's family are mafia gangs.?
So i've been dating and going out with this girl for like 3 months now. I did know that her family does some illegal stuff after 2nd or 3rd dates, but she told me she has nothing to do with that anymore, and i believe everyone deserves a second chance so i just didnt back out. 2 months into the relationship and she admitted that her fam does more than just drugs and cocain: Killing, kidnapping, and stuff....Yesterday she just told me her father knows about me and "sex" and " overnight staying". What should i do now ? He probably knows where i live now . Im kinda depressed now. Along with my long term depression and anxiety, Im having a really hard time here . Please somebody advise me what to do
How long do Fwb relationships usually last?
Its completely depends on your attachment to each other.One year back from the date I am writing this answer, I met an amazing man (In his words , Awesome is his middle name and I completely agree that he is Awesome). I really do not know to name our relationship but I guess its kinda FWB. He is one of my closest friend, and have been for sometime now, so processing whats been going between us has been difficult, confusing and downright frustrating at times. It’s the most common problem among “not so normal” relationships. Sometimes things are really normal, we are just two buds playing around . Other times… Other times I am waking up next to him and smiling because that fact makes me so utterly content. Other times we are casually flirting. Other times we are simply cuddling . Other times I am waiting for him to lean over and kiss me. I have no idea how I got to this point because I never had this kinda relationship prior meeting him nor I ever imagined I will have one. But it no longer matters how or why it started, I’m just glad that it did. And here I am, completed an year with my FWB (I don’t really like to call it this way) And I wish there should not be an expiry date for this!But again, It’s some kind of awkward between friendship and dating . I honestly don’t want things to change because , the time I spend with him is the happiest in a while, but also, How long can I do this? How long can I pretend that the elephant in the room isn’t taking up every inch of space?How long can we stay friends with benefits before we lose the friends part?The scary thing about this kinda relationships are not being able to bring any of this up to your partner. We should be prepared for the potential consequences of this kind of conversation. In my case, I don’t know what would be be worse, losing him as a friend, or going back to how things used to be, pretending like non of this ever happened. It’s a double edged sword, and I am not willing to be cut just yet.Part of me wishes I could go back to that night and prevent it from having ever occurred, prevent us from starting this whole complicated situation, but the other part of me knows that’s a lie. I don’t know how to fix this. I know one of us will figure this out one way or another in the end and I am horror-struck when I think of it. Its the not knowing how things will end that keeps me up at night, and at the end of the day, I wish he knew how much he mean to me.
How do you ask a girl to be friends with benefits without offending her?
I think asking a girl if she wants to be fwb with you requires multiple steps. The first one beingAre you already friends? I feel like a fwb situation might work out better if y'all are already friends and comfortable with each other. Like good friends, not acquaintances (some people don't know the difference).Text her. If y'all are friends and don't text, you should start.Test the waters. Lets say one day y'all are continuing to text and its already kinda late. If the convo has kinda died down a bit maybe say “I'm bored lol” and afterwards suggest y'all do something fun. After she asks what, say something along the lines of “you probably won't be down though but how about flirting?” whether she's down or not, at least now you can know whether a fwb would be possible or not. This leads me to:Take things a little further. If she agrees to the flirting, you can add that when you flirt, its a little freaky (if you're up for saying this) and if that's cool.Communicate. Since y'all are friends, most likely y'all are going to talk about what just happened. Try to find out if she had fun or not.Ask her. If she did have fun you can say something like “I had fun and since you seemed to also I was thinking if you wanted to start something mutual” and mention it being like fwb.Now, these steps cannot be done one right after the other. They all require time between each. Its your call how much time you want between them.Hope this answer helped, good luck.
