Hi all, so I’ve been seeing a man for about 3 months. We were recently talking about friendships etc, and he mentioned to me that one of his closest friends was someone he had a friends with benefits set up with for a few years.
He told me he met her through his flat mates a few years ago before he lived alone, they went on 3 dates before deciding they were better as just friends, but they did occasionally have sex.
Of all his friends she lives the nearest to him and they work in a similar area so they often meet for drinks, play tennis together or similar.
He told me they haven’t had sex since August and she has been in a new relationship since November and they would never get in the way of each others dating life’s but they do still meet for drinks sometimes. He claims she is one of his closest friends but doesn’t want their history to make me uncomfortable and felt honesty was the best approach before we make this anything serious.
I don’t know how I feel about this, they seem to meet up about once a week, which does feel like a lot for an adult friendship when they don’t work together or have lots of mutuals.
AIBU to be uncomfortable with this? Would this make you uncomfortable?
