I feel like FWB’s best bet might be actively seeking out poly guys who have a primary.

She wants a relationship, but she doesn’t want a relationship, and inexplicably this isn’t working out. If you want a douchebag, hook up with a douchebag, but, pro tip, he’s going to be a douchebag.

“Beep boop, why does Human become attached after prolonged physical and emotional intimacy? Beep bop bop.”

FWB: One book I read, i wish I could remember the title or author... wrote “They don’t call it making love cuz you’re just picking daisies” Or words to that effect. Translation: If you have enough sex, emotional intimacy WILL develop and well... people will develop a bond.

YOU may be able to stay detached, but I don’t…

FWB should probably go to a service like “seeking arrangement” or something like that. I don’t think I’m aware of any FWB situation that has ever worked out with the intended consequences. FWB is screwing it up with the cuddling. She’s projecting romantic vibes and keeps the guys around long enough for attachment to…

Letter 1: I agree with the Doctor. Stop dating your fuck buddies. Friends don’t date. They hang out, even if they’re having sex with each other.

“One thing is to make sure you’re not setting up a dating frame. Part of what’s confusing these guys is that you’re acting like a traditional relationship: the long dates, the longer talks, the flirting, the post-coital cuddles…”

If you just want sex and not a relationship....date a married man.

That doesn’t add up. They’re ending the sexual relationship by issuing the ultimatum to her.

In my experience, the whole “guys just want sex” thing is overstated. Guys just want sex when they haven’t had it in a long time. Once the sex is regular other desires come to the forefront.

I was going to joke that she should try hunting in places besides chabad houses but then read this:

I mean obviously this is just how I like to deal with it and those are my feelings, not the other other. You have to look out for your self though, no one else is going to!

LW1: I agree with Dr. Nerdlove here. Your words are saying one thing and your actions another. The long dates, the flirting, all this investment signals you’re looking for a full-fledged relationship even if you’re really not. You gotta change your MO in order to go with what you actually want.

I’ve never understood nor experienced the I want all the intimacy and closeness of a loving relationship but not the commitment. Seems to me like if you can’t commit you can’t really have it all. No judgement here, just my 2 cents.

The #1 complaint from women regarding dating apps is that they’re filled with guys who are just looking for a thrill and carpetbomb hundreds of profiles at once with “Hi, sex nao” messages, making it very hard to sort through all that and find the men who are serious about dating.

It’s crazy the long lasting physical side effects of sports. I rowed all four years of high school and off and on at gyms through my 20s and even though I haven’t sat on a machine in 5 years I still have callouses that developed when I was a teen.
What I’m saying is, this dude will never finger anyone again. 

You see that left thumb over there? That’s what Charlie Sheen’s dick looks like before his intensive moisturizing/simonizing regimen.

“Whatever, man.”

Meh. Any time my parents left me alone in the house as a teenager, my hands looked like that in a matter of a few hours.

The existence of Harvey Levine and his rise, disprove any idea that the gossip industry has gotten nicer.
