Why do I always wait for my FWB to make the first move?

Question - (14 September 2009) 3 Answers - (Newest, 15 September 2009)
A female United States age 36-40, anonymous writes:

I'm in a friends with benefits relationship with a guy. Since it began, he's always been the one to call/text me about wanting to hook up, which I hadn't noticed until he pointed it out to me recently. I don't have feelings for him, nor do I see myself ever developing them, but he's a lot of fun and I do enjoy our sexual relationship.

I can't figure out why I never make the first move, though. I obviously know he's attracted to me, and it isn't as though I want to pursue him in a romantic sense. Does anyone have any idea why I always wait for him to ask me?

While I appreciate your answers...I'm kind of mortified, lol. This isn't something I ever thought of or expected.

Could there possibly be any other explanation?

Plexi agony auntYes , because like you said you are not interested in him that way and you don't want to " chase ' him and lead him on. Normally when 2 people like each other they meet half way but you don't want to do that cause you don't feel the same way he does.

sunnycomet agony auntProbably cause like you said you are not interested in him in a romantic sense so you feel no need to seek him out and make the first move.

Are you sure he feels the same way about you? It sounds to me like he is hurt by you not contacting him.

Make it clear to him how you feel on this. And of you want make a effort to contact him once and a while.

I personally don't agree with FWB but that is your choice and as long you and this guy feel the same then there is no problem.

Good Luck!
