A female United Kingdom age 51-59, anonymous writes:

Ok,had a fwb for a while,pulled out when i got feelings,went no contact,met a new man months after,started dating and now in relationship.

Thing is i feel like i am settling for 2nd best.Seen my ex fwb around and when out a few times he always makes a point of coming over, talking,watches me dancing and stuff never ignores me, never asks for sex. I have told him am with someone now he just asked who.I so wanted to say it should be you nearly did.

My man is funny kind loyal sex is good we jell together he makes me happy i would never cheat on him.

So what the hell is wrong with me why does this ex fwb still have a hold and he sure does ?

oldbag agony auntHi

Why not ask your FWB outright if he wants a real relationship. You cannot be friends if you still feel for him can you?

If he says no, which he probably will, then give your lovely boyfriend the 100% he deserves

You clearly still have feelings for your ex FWB...

If I was you, I would avoid him as much as you possibly can, if you're genuinely sincere about never cheating, because it may only be a matter of time before you give into temptation and cheat on your boyfriend.

Its clear from you saying you had to break it off with the fwb because your feelings grew, that you want more than just a fwb relationship with someone and now you have it.

Keep hold of it, don't throw it away for a guy who doesn't want commitment like you do.

Starlights agony auntHe doesnt have a hold of you;

he just appears more attractive because he's more your kind of guy from the beginning.

Focus on your new relationship with your new man and enjoy the friendship with your friend and not worry about it.

Goodluck!

You are using your new man like your ex fwb seemed to use you. You are not as happy with your new man as you think you are. I would end the relationship and spend some time in single land. Keep away from fwb's as you will only end up wanting someone who doesnt want or respect you.
