Here’s 8
ways to make your FWB actually work without any drama or friendship fall-outs.
1. Find
someone you’ve already friend-zoned
Go for a guy
that you already think is hot, but have zero feelings for – at all.
If you’ve
already heard him fart, have been friends with his ex-girlfriends, and know his
flaws, you’ll be able to put feelings on the shelf and just enjoy a friendly
casual hookup.
2. Establish
rules
A FWB is all
about fun, but that doesn’t mean someone won’t get hurt.
Set
boundaries in advance to avoid any hurt feelings.
Maybe you
don’t want to know about the other people they’re sleeping with, or mutual
friends are off the table.
Keep it
clear, and stick to it.
3. Remember
you’re not dating
Don’t go on
dates, check in daily, send good morning texts, or go out to dinner.
Just order
Dominoes, have a beer, and hang out. That’s it!
4. Date
other people
Still keep
looking for Mr Right while you have fun with Mr Right Now.
It’ll keep
you in the dating game so you don’t get attached, and you’ll still be getting
your sexual needs met so you never feel desperate or thirsty.
Don’t
forget, you’re still on the hunt for THIS guy
5. Remember
your FWB is not your soul mate
You might
have a great friendship, but you friend zoned him for a reason.
Remember you
signed up for casual fun.
If you enjoy
each other, that’s a good thing – but remember this won’t end like a rom com.
6. Expect it
to end
Typically,
FWBs tend to end when one person starts to find their perfect someone.
Know that
this relationship is fun and temporary, and celebrate when it’s time to move
on.
7. Be open,
honest and cautious
If you start
to develop feelings, be honest with yourself and your FWB.
Could they feel
the same way? Or is there no chance?
Approach the
topic cautiously and casually to feel them out, but know that it may not be
reciprocated.
