F*** buddy/friend situation

whattodoidontknow1 · 02/07/2009 08:19

I'm annoyed with myself, I've been good friends with this man for 2.5yrs ish, we've slept together a couple of times as F buddy's, which at the time was fine & amazing sex. But after the 2nd time, I decided I couldn't do it anymore & stopped the f buddy part and we were just friends.

Then we stupidly slept together tues/weds night + now hes not talking to me ? I have no idea why hes read the 2 txts i sent him but not replied..

What do i do here? jst leave it be now? not sure what to say or what ive done wrong ? !

any ideas?

Just to let you know that a delivery report only tells you that the text has reached the phone, it doesn't tell you that the message has been read, there isn''t a way of tracking when a message is actually read....

Listen - if he is your friend, he will be in touch. It sounds to me that he is not such a good friend as you think.

Maybe you will have to write him off.

I would leave it until you saw him face to face. If you just can't bear to wait then I would call/text/email him to say that you only want to be friends. But best to leave it and then act that way/tell him in person. And then just get on with being friends. Just don't keep digging a hole for yourself.

PS I am not judging you what two single adults decide to do. Life is short and to be enjoyed.

Leave him alone. Find something/someone else to think about for the time being. You may be aware that you are not desperate for him to fall in love with you, but you are unfortunately, probably, giving him that impression because that's a little bit how you are coming across in your posting.
The thing about fuckbuddies is that, while they should always be people that you quite like (as in, no loons or total liabilities and definitely no knobbers who are violent or light-fingered), they are not partners and don't necessarily want to be in constant contact with you when you are not actually having or arranging to have sex.
The most likely time for a fuckbuddy set up to go wrong is when one of the parties has too much time on his/her hands and therefore starts thinking about The Relationship too much. Go and find something interesting to do. Don't text him again to say, sorry for being stalkerish as this will, unfortunately, look even more stalkerish and desperate. DO not contact him at all until he contacts you.

I don't think you can be fuckbuddies and friends, not a genuine friendship anyway. Too messy and blurred boundaries. No wonder it's confusing.

AnyFucker · 01/02/2016 11:57

Fuck off kipper

PaperDollChain · 01/02/2016 12:02

kipper try Tinder then. I doubt you'll find what you're looking for on MN and by resurrecting a ZOMBIE thread.

honeyroar · 01/02/2016 12:33

Oh Kipper you fuckwitt. I was hoping there'd be an end to the thread, now we'll never know.

He's not behaving very nicely, its very cruel to not txt after intimacy, even when you are not in a relationship.
Back right away .

spudlike1 · 01/02/2016 14:02

Oh hang on I've missed something

Sallyingforth · 01/02/2016 14:05

its very cruel to not txt after intimacy

Gosh, I didn't know that. What happened before texting was invented? Did they send a footman round with a gold-edged card?

AnyFucker · 01/02/2016 14:11

it's a zombie thread people

PseudoBadger · 01/02/2016 14:14

Oh no I thought OP was going to pop up with 'reader I married him'

spudlike1 · 01/02/2016 14:58

Gosh ! sallying did you forget to eat breakfast this morning

TheNaze73 · 01/02/2016 15:32

I wouldn't have sent that second text. Sounds well needy.
