I really don't know if I culd be just friends with him. I really love this guy. I want him for myself. I doubt if our friendship could survive if I knew he was with someone else. That would take some doing on my part. I think he knows how I feel, I have used the word love to him once or twice, I try not to use it because I dont' want to pressure him into anything. I guess this is a no brainer, I need to give it up. He doesn't want me as his true love or he would have told me by now. I guess I just answered my own question. Love hurts.


If I were you, I'd think it through.

1. There are two ways at this point: you stay with him (in this case go to point 4) or you take a tearful good-bye.

2. If you take a tearful good-bye, you may rekindle (in which case go to point 1), or drift, and then

3. eight years from now you'll find another really likeable one.

Whenever you find a really likeable one, go to point 1.

4. If you stay with him, you will be happily going out with him, (in which case go to point 5) or your heart will be broken, in which case you will be asking us how to mend a broken heart. Then it will eventually heal, slowly, and over a long period of extreme sadness and emotional suffering. But at the end, in about (go to point 3)

5. You will get married, or at least settle down with each other, and live happily ever after.





Yes I was thinking along theselines too...just not sure which way to go.

You never really say why you started out as FWB, or if you have come straight out and told him that you want more from the relationship now. You say you met on another site so you haven't been friends for a lot of years. Talk to him and see what happens, friends can often be made easily, True Friends are a lot harder to find.

If you tell him honestly how you feel the worst that can happen is you lose a friend that may not have been as good a friend as you thought.

Good luck.

I met this single guy on another dating site, we have been friends with benes since Labor Day. We both stated that we would only have sex with each other and that if and when we found someone else we would let the other know what was happening. Well my heart has fallen and I realize I really care for this guy. He continues to date other girls but not really that much, and no sex in involved. He recently met a nurse that I think he is attracted too, although we have great chemistry and he has always treated me good. Although he never said the words love and no valentines day card. Today was my birthday, although he took me to the movie and we I was with him, no card, no gift. Should I give this up? He was really hurt by his last wife who dumped him and he said he is taking it slow and dating around first. What do you all think I should do? Hang on on hang it up.


Hummm sorry but if he is dating others and you think your the only one he is having sex I would have to say NOT!

If a guy is dating several women he will have sex with everyone of them that will let him. I can't see a guy dating several and only having sex with one of them. Why would he need to date others if he is only sleeping with one of them?
