To try to sum it all up, I’ve been FWB with a close friend of mine for almost 5 years. Took about a year off when I was in a shitty relationship but all in all, we have been doing this awhile.
It used to be quick hookups, but it’s gradually progressed to more than that: hanging out for a bit before fooling around, hanging out after, sometimes getting food , watching things, cuddling. I had asked one of the first times we’d hooked up if he’d ever thought about us as a couple before but he said he had, but he was afraid of it ruining our friendship.
I’ve tried not to give it much thought in the past but my feelings have been kind of nagging me in my thoughts and dreams.
over the last 6 months we’ve been getting much more...intimate, and romantic sometimes? having some deep conversations about life, putting some more planning into our hookup nights, playfully teasing each other, and we have sex for hours sometimes, followed by long conversation mixed with some petting and cuddling.
I’ve come to realize in the last 5 years neither of us have really tried to get serious with anyone else. We have both admitted that we both only have sex with each other consistently, with the occasional one night stand in our separate searches for a partner (we both want to end up with someone and get married one day, we’ve never talked seriously about it being us though).
We know each other’s families, we’ve known each other since high school, we have a lot in common and we’re both attracted to each other, we’re very sexually compatible and we enjoy each other’s company. We’ve both been a shoulder to cry on for each other through past heartbreaks.
People ask if we’re together all the time and mutual friends have commented on how different we are with each other vs alone, in that we both seem to light each other up and come out of our shells when we’re together.
My heart wants me to have a conversation with him about it, my head wants me to be careful about how I do it as to not end up making things awkward because he once said he’s thought about us together but didn’t want to ruin the friendship we have.
Wat do now 😱
