Help!!!

June 04 2014

First of all, be gentle I'm a virgin poster :). I have been a member here for quite awhile, and while I've met some really great people I just can't find exactly what I want!! I really want a friend - dinner, movies etc when it suits us both, but with the benefit of sex. I believe the friendship makes the sex better. I don't want a commitment, having to answer to someone else! My house is my house, sleepovers are great - just not every night ;). My problem is I either get the fb - just sex but won't be seen in public, or they start off as Fwb but then want the whole commitment thing! Any clues as to what I'm doing wrong or am I just expecting to much?? - Posted from rhpmobile

    Hi Lisalee, welcome to the forums.....I hope you realise it's a bit of a tradition, that you have to sleep with the first few people that reply to your post, anyway we can work out those details later ? lol In regards to your post, It's somewhat harder for us to find a FWB with a connection, like you said, when your lover wants to take it further than maybe what was first intended.....that's when we have to be honest and tell that person to back off as it is not a serious relationship your looking for.....and of course if they can't do that....friends.

    you said it, its such a hard line to draw or make the other understand without them feeling used. hahahah even some like being used. I am still surging for my 5 lovers....each time I find one another one has to leave because life's circumstances. I will loose one in a short while, he will go back to NZ. I don't think I get over 2 lol. Its not there is no men out there is just not many fit so to speak. Bummmer

    When you find them, let me know cause I sure as hell couldn't. People change their minds more often than they change their underwear it seems, and after a weekend of dramas with numerous fwb's and others, I decided to take a break because I was unsatisfied with the casual relationships that I had currently and the drama that they were causing. Must be an ego thing where guys either get scared that you're going to fall in love with them and think you can't handle the casual thing that you're asking for, or decide that they want to be the one to make you settle down. err...yeah no!

I have pulled back a bit from meeting guys because it just isn't even worth my time any more. It's a shame that guys find it so hard to have friendships and relationships with women though. It would be great to meet some men that would like a true FWB arrangement ..... something in between FB and a relationship.Guys, can you please inform us ladies why you find that so difficult ???And why, if you do start a FWB arrangement it usually only lasts a few months then suddenly you disappear without explanation??Just a simple text to let us know that the arrangement has run its course for you and that you're moving on would be appreciated and people would know where they stand.It's not rocket science. It's just courtesy.

Lisalee, its a question that appears to be at one level an oxymoron for this site - i.e., its an adult site for people generally looking to broaden their sexual horizons. Maybe the learning for many of us is that sex without intimacy is less fulfilling and that to have intimacy requires as a minimum, friendship. If one follows that logic through, it is possible that the combination of friendship, intimacy and great sex will lead to one or other party to wanting more than FWB, even if initially that was not their position. In summary, it appears part of the journey, a risk, but also possibly a perfect outcome if its mutual. For me, if I didn't travel so much several of my FWB's would have made great partners . Oh, and Jay Jay, really.... you seem the perfect FWB

    Just let me give the trusty old steed a bush down (he use to be white but now he's pretty grey), throw the shining armour on (ok, it's a little tarnished but I think that's from when Indy spilt rum and coke everywhere at the footy last year) and rush off to save you. You're not too far away, me and the old pony could probably make it in 5 hours or so. Basically, we are complicated animals who, for all of our abilities, have trouble communicating. I'm one of the worst. Sometimes it's easier to cut and run rather than find out what the other person is thinking. It's easier to assume. Good luck with the hunt, may your prey survive ;)

Except that I have not yet met anyone who wanted a committed relationship with me, which I thank heaven for that, because I do not believe that commitment and love can happen so lightly! What I seek is like a boyfriend type of companionship, but take out the commitment and expectation fuss, because I have my priorities in life to accomplish before another serious and exclusive relationship takes place. However, this seems unreal to find and definitely not on RHP, because the majority of people that come on here treating this site like a free of charge brothel! Sigh! - Posted from rhpmobile

    Hey Lisalee I suspect there are many on RHP that find it difficult to find that right mix of what they are after I noticed you mentioned that you are mostly after a FWB .. but I also noticed that you have in what you are seeking 'unattached' I couldn't help but wonder why you wouldn't consider someone 'attached' (but free to 'play) ... Many of the women i've been with from RHP .. love knowing that no matter how good our date is... and no matter how good the sex is ... I'm simply not going to get 'attached' ... I'm already deeply in love... I don't need that... I get that for some.. 'attachment' comes with complications... ... but with some of us... it just doesn't (it actually alleviates them) ... Maybe worth considering? Just sayin... :)

That is one reason why many single women prefer single men for a FWB arrangement, because they want more than just sex and an attached man cannot provide that.

    You hit the nail on the head! I don't want to be someone's dirty little secret and have to go to out of the way places to avoid being seen, if we went out at all! And that fear of receiving a phone call or knock on the door from some irate (and rightfully so!!) wife is certainly not something I need! Man2, I think you're one of the many men on here who don't understand the meaning of fwbs! I believe even when the sex ends - as in you both move on. - that you can still be friends, would you introduce me to your wife as a friend? - Posted from rhpmobile

And in most cases your primary partner and any children if you have them will still always come first (as it should be), so it's still usually up to the single person to fit in around the attached person's schedule.

    Maybe the problem is that your not looking for guys young enough, us young guys would live to have the chance of fwb but with no commitment. It's hot for a younger guy to be with an older woman, that's why were on this site. Also I have gotton so many replies now saying "no you are young you can't keep up with me" maybe your worried because you won't beable to keep with guys like me?? :) Have a good day everyone.

    Lisalee what you describe is exactly what I've been looking for. I had a great fwb a few years ago for nearly twelve months and after the sex ended we remained friends. It was great fun and is something I really want to have again! Unfortunately I feel the same problems come up for us guys too. This beast which we both hunt proves to be very elusive! sooner or later the one, or ones, you seek will show themselves you just need to sort through the deadwood. Have a great day!

    I've had a few great fwbs over the years, but I've come to accept there's a time limit on them. It's a delicate balance. Eventually circumstances change for one or other... Someone wants more, or one of us gets into a relationship with someone else that's more exclusive or something. But I'm still friends with most if them. - Posted from rhpmobile

    Everyone has a slightly different variation on the expectation of what a fwb would be... My version doesn't seem to match many other people's definition :( However I do find it easier to have this arrangement with females rather than males... I have no idea why :) Xxviolet

    It's also that you want to go out with your FWB's on Friday or Saturday nights...and sometimes you might want to catch up a few times in one week, or even meet up spontaneously. Single people have the freedom to do this usually.

Then intimately and sensually sharing an awesome morning or afternoon or evening together and doing it all again at the answer of a phone call. We are out there and not all toads........ Koz.
