Do you honestly not realize all he wants from you is an easy piece?

Did he take the girlfriend to Paris instead of you, as he promised?
no he went on his own but we weren’t talking around the time he went. I didn’t go to Paris

it is a bad thing to do and I feel horrible about it. i wish we could just be friends but with him he wants the physical stuff too.

you are better than that. You deserve a guy who loves you and supports you and isn't ashamed of being with you.


Have some pride and kick that piece of sh*t to the curb.


No matter who you are and what you are and what you aren't or what you didn't achieve - you shouldn't be with someone who treats you like that. There is someone better for you out there.

Of course he wants the physical stuff; that's ALL he wants from you and God knows how many others.

Do you not get that? That he cares nothing for you except as a low cost, low effort hookup?

You posted awhile ago that he was making you do things that you weren't comfortable with; maybe the woman he cares enough for to call a girlfriend refuses to indulge him in that area.

He emotionally manipulate you! Why would you even want to be friends with him?

Count yourself lucky things didn't work out. He stringed you along the whole time with talks about love and marriage.

You'll be ok, just pick yourself up, do something for yourself that makes you feel good, and don't look back.

I wish I could find someone who liked me for me but I tend to date guys who pick me apart or who point out my flaws. I am a good person and everything but i have flaws like anybody. can’t get a guy to commit so I gave up
On that. I actually do like the FWB situation but this just went badly. Just sucks bc I do love him and I shared things with him

He's an a-hole. This says volumes about him.

Don't make dumb decisions and continue to see him. Seriously, you are setting yourself up for pain if you don't block his number. Being lonely is no reason to let someone use you.

I don't know how you could even actually have sex with him after the things he has said to you.

Please have some dignity and stop talking to him.

That's not a FWB. That's a one-sided relationship.

You can find someone. You know the red flags now. A guy should not have a single bad thing to say about your or to suggest to you to improve yourself while you are dating. As soon as they start saying something like that, move on. Those guys don't even make good FWB people. Hearing stuff like that will start going to your head.

If you are truly serious about finding someone for the long term, do not sleep with them until they commit to you. It will weed out the ones who aren't serious real quick.

yeah it used to be special but now it just feels wrong. No connection. yes that’s part of what it is. Never should have done any of that. Ita hard to come up with reasons why not when you have already done it before.

before I felt like he cared about me. he made me feel like he did. im just depressed about all of it.

I don't think you can truly have a FWB situation with someone you love. It just doesn't make sense. You love him and you're having sex, yes you are going to get attached. Just learn from this and move on. Don't talk to him again, you don't even owe him an explanation of any thing or any good bye or anything like that.

He sounds revolting. Pressuring you into acts with which you weren't really OK is despicable. He used your desperate situation and naivete to manipulate you.

He never cared, this I can assure you. A man who cares would do none of what he did; rather, the opposite.
