Your his booty call, no more no less. A girl he uses for sex.

He was probably mad you kissed the guy because it was in the pub he was working in, if others know he's been visiting you (and men brag) he would have his ego bruised.

You can go out with whoever you want, your single, so why not stop the sex,tell him its a relationship or nothing. Dont listen to his weak excuses, he doesn't take you out or care about you,if he did he wouldn't call you up at 2am.

11 months is enough of your time wasted, your obviously an attractive girl and can meet other men easily - just do not have sex with them until your sure its a relationship and not just a booty call - you don't have to be hidden away, you should be shown off with pride.

He promised to take you out and go places... what a prize: LOL.

So you had sex with him when he felt like it at two am hoping that one day he would take you on a date??? 11 months later he still hasn't taken you anywhere, doesn't this tell you something?

Why would you have anything to do with him at all? He is definitely seeing other people on the side. He's upset you danced with someone else- too bad for him, he should have treated you as more than a booty call.

If you want a relationship, find someone who will go out with you right away and don't have sex with him until you're in a defined relationship of bf/gf, no friends with benefits 2 am booty call crap.

My advice is to get rid of this man for good and to go out with the man who you danced with-explore that.

Good luck.

Miamine agony auntNot understanding this much.

This guy aint your boyfriend, he's just some guy who comes over and you and him have sex. He's shown he's not interested in dating, he never takes you anywhere. He comes over for sex, and he isn't even concerned if your sleeping at 2:30am in the morning like most people. Your the woman he has sex with, end of the story.

Now with sex only relationships, there is no going out or doing things together. If he can't even come round at a decent hour, then it's not a FWB (friends with benefits) cause he aint no friend. It's a booty call, he gets horny and then he calls, but you have no control over anything.

You do get to make a contract in sex only relationships. You can both agree to be faithful and no sleep with anyone else because of the dangers of STD's... not because he wants to keep you or love or any decent reasons.

He broke the contract, he cheated.... I'm not understanding what your getting out of this relationship at all, except a bit of sex (which is probably crap at 2:30am) a lying man, and no chance to meet someone else who might treat you better.

Dump him, and try to track down the man you was flirting with, at least he wants to hold your hand in public and doesn't expect you to hide away and live like a vampire.

A female reader, YouWish United States +, writes (8 February 2012):

YouWish agony auntThat's exactly it. He wants a FWB with you, but he doesn't want you to see anyone else.

First of all, stop feeling guilty right now. You did nothing wrong. A FWB is NOT a relationship. You owe him nothing, and he owes you nothing. If he wants a relationship, he needs to grow up and initiate a real one.

And, this is a lesson to you. 11 months as a FWB is too long. You're wasting your life and body on this guy. What you are is thirsty for real intimacy, but what you're getting is a mirage.

Do NOT apologize to him. If you're interested in going beyond a FWB and having a relationship, you need to lay it on the line. It's a grave mistake that people think that a relationship is a "next step" from FWB, because there IS no next step! You'll be starting a new relationship beyond friendship.

You have not cheated on him. There was no promise of exclusivity. He's been treating you like a 2am booty call. If he wants you to only have sex with him and no other, he needs to grow up and make the same commitment.

Your situation needs some clarity, are we dating or are we not needs to be answered. You can say its not cheating cause it seems like u arent together. And what u did was just hurtful. I dont think what you did was wrong because both of you knew this wasnt really a committed relationship. You really just hurt him. made him mad cause no one wants to see a person they care about with someone else. tell him I didnt sleep with that guy. It was just a kiss. He caught u doing it so i mean i could see him being mad... also have u been seeing other people? has he? if not i would say thats kinda a relationship..

If he says its his sisters hair brush you cant hold that against him.. u didnt catch him doing anything. and theres really no ground rules in this situation. I guess your two arent together. so ask if hes been seeing other people.

Good luck

I'd just move on.

He want's to have his cake & eat it too.

He want's you to be faithful whilst he's out sleeping with whoever he likes.

I'd give him an ultimateum.

Either you's get together properly & you are in a committed relationship.

OR

You walk away.

If not he'll just continue to use you,when you could be out there looking for "Mr Write" & not "Mr right now"
