I've been sleeping with my ex for nearly 2 years now on and off. Just lately he won't come round unless he gets sex. I told him I was on my period but he could still come and see me for a catch up if he wanted and he said " well no point I'm not going to get anything am I ?"
I didn't reply
My question is and I know it's a daft situation but should I just no get in touch again ? Or what can I say if he does ?

Thanks

I think you already know the answer.. why would you want a fwb arrangement with an ex?! presumably it didn't work for a reason... regardless it clearly isn't suiting you so don't settle. perhaps just next time he gets in touch asking to come round say "well you aren't going to get any so there's no point?" xx

Time to cut this one loose. Fwb is mutually satisfyingly, this is just a booty call with no respect.

Well you know the only thing he values you for is sex. Don't bother texting him again.

He’s just a twat. Ditch him. Love AlwaysSleepys response idea for when he next gets in contact. Nothing wrong with FWB (I really dig the arrangement) but both parties should remember what the “F” bit stands for and that it’s actually quite important to the whole dynamic.

This isn't FWB, you're a booty call.

Ditch this fucking idiot. If you want a FWB there are plenty of respectful guys out there who are happy to keep it casual with a friend, and they understand that "friend" actually means.

Don't ever be demoted from the girlfriend to the booty call, it will just make you feel like shit. If you truly want a FWB do it with someone else, there are too may feelings involved with an ex.
