sonofapreacherman Posted May 16, 2013 Posted May 16, 2013 Could really use some insight into this. Backstory is fairly typical, friends with benefits, I got feelings, she didn't, back and forth between me and her ex, others dates "weren't me" etc but when ever I tried to move things forward I was met with "we're just functional". Basically I should've walked a lot earlier (easy to say in hindsight). She met someone else so I finally walked, asked for a clean break, got my stuff and left. That parts over and done with. 2 weeks later I get a text asking a question anyone could've answered, answered politely but short. Kept it that way for any communication since whether in person or by phone. Couple of weeks ago I was playing a gig and she was there with her new bf. Again I was polite but short. I didn't see this but my wingwoman said she was looking at me all night, even came and stood right behind me and her when we we're outside. Me and the wingwoman have a flirty relationship even though she's involved (fun because we both know nothing will happen). Anyway a week later I get a text from the former FWB saying she'd found me a present and had left it at mine (It was a pretty cool present). Thing is I was a bit shocked so I didn't reply to the text, drove past her the next day and again completely ignored her. I Have no idea why I've ignored her, just felt like the right thing to do at the time. Now, I know this sort of thing happens with ex-girlfriends, trying to keep the old partner as "back-up", not quite ready to let things go but technically we weren't in a relationship although we acted like it. Does anyone have any experience with this sort of thing with FWB's? Can anyone tell me why she's doing this? I asked for a clean break, not presents. Does the same psychology apply as with ex-girlfriends? There' been no contact since I ignored her when I drove past I Have to admit I do feel rude not at least saying thanks Cheers
