Fwb with my manager both single both happy with fwb situation. At work we keep it professional and no body is aware as no one business. These ppl are work colleagues not friends.
My point is manager does not give me any special treatment regarding any situations at work etc, an example is once I had to leave 45 mins early one day due to child being unwell, instead of letting me off considering we’re fwb, he said as company policy I need to make the time up when I can, or put it as unpaid.
There other things where I think he should let me off but I get treated like everyone else even tho we’re fwb.
I told my friend about this as she was in similar situation at work before with a colleague before he left, and he would turn a blind eye to minor things like lateness, days off etc as they were sleeping together, so she got special treatment. He would only ignore minor things not major things tho.
Her colleagues even noticed and made comments as “she must be sucking
Him off as she can do what she wants” so it is a thing that they get special treatment.
My point is I’m thinking to end this fwb now as it just seems that other than sex he really doesn’t care about me and sees me as just a colleague because if he saw me as a bit more than a colleague due to the sex, he would allow me a bit of leeway, or should the manager treat me the same despite the sex thing ? Should he bit more kinder and allow certain things to pass as we’re sleeping together? Is that how it’s meant to work ?
I'm not asking for pay rises, ignoring lateness etc but a bit of leeway as my mate had that and is that the norm, am I missing something ?
