Feelings for fwb

[Anna2004]

Ugh.....I think I'm getting feelings for my fwb. We've had a long history together. We do jive well together. I know deep down he doesn't see me for more than just fwb....and it's what I keep reminding myself. I don't kiss his lips ever cuz I don't want to attach those kissing butterflies to him.

But now it's just how right our personalities match. It feels right to me, but I can't ever tell him. Always fwb only

Sorry, Anna. FWB is hard for some people. I hope you don't end up getting hurt

You need to stop the FWB if this is how you feel. It will only be harder for you.

^^^ this. Stop it before you end up getting hurt

Sorry to hear this. Usually fwb is the end game, not a stepping stone to a relationship.

 

If a relationship is what you really want, why short-change yourself with this? It will lead to heartache if you continue.

 

The only choices are tell him how you feel or end this and date to find a relationship.

I know deep down he doesn't see me for more than just fwb.

Dont ever tell him either, he is here for sex and if you tell him, he will only tell you what you want to hear. Honestly, I think you should walk away from this all together. Catching feelings for a guy who started out and only wants sex: he isnt going to reciprocate the feelings, cause they are not there. Its going to leave you feeling un-wanted, less than great, used, not good-enough.. ya know, all those feelings. And you already know hes not in it for that anyway

Ya done goofed. Time to call it quits.

Fwb isn't for everyone.. Especially if you are getting those.. 'feelings'! You need to stop this and back off.

Work on healing from this.. and find a man in your Life who appreciates you and wants all of you.. with proper intent.

 

Many dont want to get serious.. for reasons. Realize this isnt for you.

 

I experienced a few in my day as well. One went on for 4 mos. thankfully I realized I wans't that into him anyways.. so no real feelings hurt.

Another one, I felt a connection too fast.. and had to back off.. realizing he was using me. having me over only to hook up.. on his terms.. etc. Nope- Not doing that again!

 

Respect and come to realize your boundaries. This is your Life.. be careful.

I'm experiencing the exact same thing right now. I'd like to figure out the root cause of my feelings. I'd encourage you to do so as well. The advise about is good and sound. I've heard it from my friends. For some reason I can't shake my desire for him. Sometimes I think that being lonely is so painful we'd settle for anything. I used to drink. Now I have sex....So its like going from one destructive behavior to another. Keep is posted on how it all works out. I believe the truth is that we all want a good man to love us and support us. Women are nurturing beings. Trouble is we bind ourselves to a good fix and we may miss out on what we really want.
