I think that if a guy starts a fwb it's bc he doesn't like you that much,just wants to get his rocks off and I would bet he is banging other girls .i don't think fwb works .someone always gets hurt.

1) Keep being awesome - don't become possessive.

2) Start exercising your option as a FWB participant to date someone else.

3) If the object of your affection brings this fact up, let him know that you would rather it were him, but you understand the rules of FWB and you don't want to pressure him. Remember - stay awesome. No pressure. I cannot stress this enough.

4) He will have some time to think about what he has, and what he may lose if you become attached to the guy you're dating. If there is any serious potential between you, he will pursue an exclusive relationship with you.

If he does not, then - as they say - he was never yours to begin with.


REMEMBER - DON'T GET B*TCHY. STAY AWESOME. LET HIM FOLLOW, DO NOT PUSH.

It isnt easy for anyone not even a woman to find a true fwb. Thats why most dont work out, people think benefits and not what the friend aspect means.
it's not hard to find a friend with benefits it's just hard to maintain without anyone catching feelings

Find another man one not afraid of responcibillities. You give the milk away why buy the cow and have to feed and houre it. If your giving away free honey why should he risk getting stung by the Bees? All sex has strings attached that is why there is so much jerking involved in it.


He's got a point. How much you wanna bet if you say to him you'd like to see other guys since you relationship isn't going anywhere, you'd find out real quick if he felt you worth, it or ready for the transitions into a relationship.

Well eventually he is going to do that too. It's rare a young man doesn't at some point want a woman to go places with and do things and be attached to, but not live together.

The problem is you have already set the parameters of your relationship and it's gonna be hard to see you in another light. It's time to meet other guys or at least talk about it, because counting on him to change his relationship isn't likely to happen unless you change the rules.

I suggest that you just come out and tell the guy how you feel. If you don't want the sex to stop, then just tell him that. I'm sure he'll understand, especially since you only have a sexual relationship now anyway.

If you don't tell him how you feel, he'll never know, and you can't expect him to feel the same as you. MAYBE he does feel the same, but just like you, doesn't know how to go about making the transition from f**k buddy to boyfriend.

Just be blunt and honest. Best case scenario, he feels the same and you become a monogamous couple, worse case scenario, he doesn't feel the same and wants to cut all ties in fear that you will become to attached and needy if the sex continues.

Most likely scenario, he isn't ready for a monogamous relationship, but is willing to continue the FWB relationship.

Best of luck.

A conversation, an honest conversation.

If you can't sit and have an honest, calm discussion like this-any relationship is doomed and a waste of time anyway. Think of it as the test.

FWB ends when one person is no longer satisfied with the terms. All you can do is be honest with him of your feelings and if he is smart and cares about the friendship if there is one he will stop having sex with you to seperate those aspects and continue to be just friends and wishing you well and happiness in finding what you want... communication is the best thing to keep any type of relationship and sadly most people can't just talk to there s.o or fwb. To those in FWB relationships I suggest a 3 or 6 month re-evaluation chat to make sure on same page.

two choices.

1) take the risk and tell him...at the risk it ends there.

2) don't say anything and keep doing this same thing for who knows how long....if by now he is not into you enough for a relation

he never will be.

Op...you kinda notched womens credibility down another notch...as in sex is more important than your dignity or love.

The fact of the matter is every relationship is different. A fwb is indeed a relationship. You care about them. Vice versa. People can give you "their" opinions but only you can do what "you" feel is right.

I've had a fwb for two years. And there isn't anything in the world I wouldn't do for him. Sincerely!

Tell him how you feel. If he rejects you, as hard as it is, move on. If he accepts you, then I truly wish you happiness.

Wow, I was just in the same exact situation!!!

All I did was every so often bring up the possibility of a real relationship, sometimes in the middle of sex, and let him know that I loved him.

He's my boyfriend now.

Oh and I'm sure all those home-cooked meals I cooked him didn't hurt either.

Invite him to dinner or to a movie. See if he wants to go.
Bring it up after the date and sex! Then you will know.
If he says no...well at least you had it one last time!

The good thing about fwb, is your friends first! Just talk to him openly and honestly. If he wanted a relationship earlier on, chances are he still does, that's why he's still sleeping with you. Take a leap of faith. Good luck to you!

Ok then you send me an email pledging to be my devoted slave "forever."
Then you'll be ok because i CANT cheat on you because nobody else wants me!!
Then i'll die anyway and after i die you'll still be young and you will be more experienced and you'll know a lot of stuff and you can find a REAL "Life Mate."

You don't. And if you DO then it won't work out long term. I had a FWB beginning in 1994 and we ended up marrying in 2000 and had 3 children out of it. It never worked. He has reminded me so many times since we split up how our lives were ruined because we turned it in to a relationshp that neither of us really wanted. We were all about the sex and tried to turn it in to wife/husband and that just doesn't work.

If this guy was interested in a relationship with you....you would of already known this by now!...I say leave it alone...it will blow up in your face for sure.
You made the mistake of allowing him full access to you without strings!....no respect for you whatsoever at this point...you threw that out the window the day you settled with being FWB.

That's NOT a FWB relationship. FWB means FRIENDS, WITH BENEFITS.

The key word being FRIENDS. All parties involved go into such a relationship knowing that it is NOT meant to be a MONOGAMOUS relationship, but they're STILL friends.

Some women, such as yourself, ONLY sees things from a woman's VICTIMIZED perspective.

WHY is it that ONLY a woman can or should feel used for her body? As if men aren't used for their bodies as well. I've even been told by at least 2 women that I'm only good for sex, and there have been MANY occasions where during sex, the woman I was with experienced orgasm, while I did not, and they just said oh well and left.

Most men are not going to give up a good situation of getting something for nothing by complicating it with a relationship.Grant you there might be a few men who will...but they are far and few between....She should of never settled for this in the beginning...now look where she is at...surely after a year of being with this man there would be something there from "him" to go on!.... her not having to question it! ....sounds to me like, he is in it for one thing and one thing only!

A FWB relationship is NOT meant to become a monogamous relationship and isn't meant for people who are seeking a monogamous relationship. They are for people who MUTUALLY desire a no strings attached sexual relationship.

The BENEFIT is that all parties involved have a "guaranteed" sex partner in a FRIEND (which is generally a good thing, until someone gets jealous).

NO ONE who goes into such a relationship see's themself as being USED, and SHOULDN'T, because it IS a FAIR exchange. All parties involved get what they AGREE to. Nothing more, nothing less.

You just seem bitter and jaded.

I not picking out one specific gender really in all this..male and female can both be used for nothing but sex...I agree! ...but when a person sets the stage for this kind of relationship....you are just in fact loaning yourself out sexually till something more interesting and better comes along!....me not wanting this... is basically me not wanting to settle for...Whatever, or whomever to get my rocks off! I like to think that I have a little more worth than this!...sorry you and the rest don't see it this way...but I do!

I actually 99% agree with userx which is rare. Hmm.

Anyway, in terms of it not being monogamous, that's not true.

We are having sex with only each other. If he or I decided to step out of that, we'd say something to each other.

I greatly enjoy sex with my fwb. As a matter of fact, I can only hope to continue our relationship indefinitely. I don't feel used. I'm pretty he doesn't feel used. We have unbelievable sexual compatibility. Nothing wrong with that. And I actually care greatly for him.

Quote from userx79:
A FWB relationship is NOT meant to become a monogamous relationship and isn't meant for people who are seeking a monogamous relationship. They are for people who MUTUALLY desire a no strings attached sexual relationship.

The BENEFIT is that all parties involved have a "guaranteed" sex partner in a FRIEND (which is generally a good thing, until someone gets jealous).

NO ONE who goes into such a relationship see's themself as being USED, and SHOULDN'T, because it IS a FAIR exchange. All parties involved get what they AGREE to. Nothing more, nothing less.

You just seem bitter and jaded.



I am not jaded or bitter!...you do things your way!...and I will do them mine!....obviously FWB isn't what it is cracked up to be!...thus why women walking out on you not saying nothing!...Hell even the op that started this thread isn't able to handle a FWB ,or she wouldn't be asking strangers opinions on the matter!.. of her FWB!

The personal examples I gave were not meant to illustrate any frustration or flaw in FWB relationships, it was meant ONLY to illustrate than MEN, as well as women, can be used for sex.

Only a FOOL would go into a FWB relationship expecting a fairy tale ending, where he/she ends up in a monogamous relationship and lives happily ever after.

Again, NO ONE seeking a monogamous relationship should enter into a FWB relationship. NO ONE is used in such a relationship. It is a FAIR exchange.

Of course, that's NOT to say that a FWB relationship can NOT develop into a monogamous relationship, many such relationships begin as FWB relationships.

Not where I come from they don't start out that way...but hey....Whatever! ...I will agree with one thing...someone wanting a monogamous relationship shouldn't enter into a FWB!...not so sure about the not being used in...unless your speaking for everyone!....me thinking not!

Darned if I know. I could never do it, but women treat men so badly these days that you can't blame a guy for being gunshy and holding every babe at arm's length and it's all your own fault, girls!

Shouldn't be having sex in the first place! What's his motivation to commit? You give him SEX, probably COOK for him now and then, BUY his , HELP with the bills and don't ask questions when he's with that CUTE cheerleader down the street. If he gets married the sex STOPS, the cooking STOPS, the beer STOPS, paying his bills STOPS and you always accuse him of cheating. As long as you don't get pregnant he can break up with you now, NO STRINGS ATTACHED! Get married and you have legal rights and he gets nailed for alimony and child support and whatever else the court mandates! You live like a queen on alimony and he works two shifts just to eat baloney. Maybe mama lets him put his cot behind the furnace too. What's his motivation to get married? You do everything for him now probably and it all STOPS if when he says I DO. Don't see any reason to get committed and married under the circumstances.

Sex and cooking etc etc shouldn't happen until AFTER marriage, not before.

Why buy the cow when he's had all the milk for free. If I was a guy and getting easy a** from a chick I wouldn't want her as my gf.
