Stopme Posted February 11, 2017 Posted February 11, 2017 OK so I started an FWB thing about six weeks ago. I really like this guy and think there is a lot of potential for something more. I know he does too because I heard through a mutual friend. However, he has told me he doesnt want a serious relationship. I have shown signs of jealousy lately. Since then we havent lost contact, he still texts me but I guess if I'm getting attached to the guy I need to stop seeing him. He seems to be playing games. Just venting but any advice is great.
mikeylo Posted February 11, 2017 Posted February 11, 2017 I would believe what he says to you and acts with you. Many times guys say different stuff to others for various reasons. I wouldn't put any weight into that.

Continuing involves emotional risk, however, depending on your willingness, desire and tolerance... sometimes fwb's do turn into relationships. What kind of games? Do you think you perceive it as such because you're becoming attached, or would it be considered games even in the context of no-strings-attached? Have you shown signs of jealousy to him, or just felt the pangs yourself? Probably best to try and not be. He's not yours, yet.
BaileyB Posted February 11, 2017 Posted February 11, 2017 It's always risky to get into a FWB situation expecting that it will grow into more... I would say, he's not interested or his actions would tell you differently. If he wanted to date you, he would be dating you right now...
GoldSparkz Posted February 11, 2017 Posted February 11, 2017 The problem is that women tend to fall in love AFTER sex and men fall in love BEFORE sex, so you are taking a big risk by getting into FWB situation with a guy that you are obviously attracted to. My advice is to speak to him openly about your feelings and then hear what he has to say. If he confirms that he doesn't see a future with you, then cut ties and walk away with your dignitity in tact. Use this as a lesson never to have sex with a guy until you are in a committed relationship. 1
