Yeah, forgot to mention in this post but we agreed to take some space while I think about what I want. I’ll take the time to think about whether I can still be friends. Thank you
You dont need to cut them out of your life altogether. But you def need to for a while. Until you feel good with chilling again and no hookup and just friends. Whenever you can picture them with someone else and you feel nothing, thats when it will be okay again. (Thats my rule anyway )
I understand tho. It sucks dude and im sorry you have to go thru this. But it will all be okay. Just not right away.
That is an excellent rule. I think a lot of feelings would be spared if more folks followed this!
Why thank you kind stranger💁♀️ i do my best.
Yeah, good point. We actually decided to take some space while I think about it, but maybe I should continue until I get over my feelings.
But thank you, I really apprciate it. This is my first time falling for an FWB and wow, it really does suck lol
It’s a tough position. You will never get over your feelings if you are still seeing each other. It’s been a few months so his feelings aren’t likely to change, and definitely won’t change if you just keep doing what your doing because he’s getting what he wants now. You either live with these feelings knowing nothing will ever come from it, or break it off and once your feelings are gone you can try being friends again….
Yeah, we’re taking some time apart while I decide what I want. Hopefully it’ll help me decide if we can still be friends

What’s there to think about?
He’s basically rejected you. He does not want to take the opportunity to date you. He does not have romantic feelings for you.
Either be friends with him (acquaintances) or cut him off. Not a good idea to have sex with him again because at that point it’ll be you being used.
Yeah, I know that part.
I’m debating whether to stay friends or cut him off.
Since he wasn’t your friend before and it appears he was looking for casual anyway—I’d cut him off.

You should 100% stop sleeping with him if you've caught feelings and he hasn't. Whether you think you can be okay being friends is really a call that only you can make, but taking a week or two to not see him at all and really think it over would probably be wise.
