What do you do with your FWB?

[Gotanewname]

I mean apart from sex?! Do you go out for meals, even go away together? Stay overnight at one another’s houses? How often are you in touch? How much personal stuff do you share? I’m not quite sure on the right boundaries.

I’m recently got myself an FWB for the first time. He’s a friend I met through work years ago and a lovely guy, great company - but definitely not relationship material for me, if I was looking for a relationship. I have a tiny niggle in my mind he is open to it developing into something more and though I’ve been really clear that’s not where I am (and he says he’s very happy with FWB) I don’t want to confuse things.

It's an odd arrangement, nobody else really understands it and if I'm honest I try not to think about it too much...!

That's not odd @louderthan

It's just you've incorrectly labelled it as FWB.

The rest of the world would call it a relationship.

I've found both of mine on normal dating sites.

Have been with my fwb three and a half years. We see each other most days as we both have very high sex drives and he conveniently lives on my way home from work 😁 We usually eat together after we've fucked, help each other out and have some fab holidays with lots of sex.
We both know that there's a chance that one of us could meet someone else and want to take it further, we have agreed to be completely honest with each other should that happen.
We are friends that gave amazing sex that haven't fallen in love and it works for us both.
