Musing again.
How does one find a FWB on Fab?
How hard has it been to find one?
If you have one are you exclusive to each other? How did you make that happen?

I think it’s about honesty and understanding but first of all knowing yourself and what you can handle and what you seek,
The rest is the fun part in just exploring and finding the right person for you.
I’ve neen fortunate to find some very lovely people who I call friends first...everything else is a bonus! |

Not had much luck with them, they o ly wanted the benefits when it suited them with the exception of one who is now in a relationship. |

It’s possible but they are hard to find. And you have to remorselessly police your boundaries, which can be tiring. And when it goes tits up because they acted like a dick or got jealous of your other meets, everyone assumes you were trying to make it exclusive or pursue them to the altar, which is irritating.
That said, regular sex with a likeminded acquaintance can be a wonderful thing. |

I've done nothing but fwbs for 25 years and love it! Harder on fab because it depends on 2 people being on the same page but if you're both honest from the start it seems to work out ok ... It's easier if you go for the friend side first |

If I had a friend with benefits, and we were exclusive, wouldn’t that be a boyfriend? Or girlfriend? |

No because you’re not making ‘life’ decisions together. |

Shaz has had 1 or 2 fwb's in the past, one for over 3 years but nothing recent, not sure if Shaz just getting more fussy, men getting more fussy or times are just changing.  |

I would say a good fwb is hard to find, especially a long term one. And an exclusive one even harder on here (for obvious reasons). Experiance tells me how well you can expect to be treated and how long it last depends to what extent the nature of your freindship is base on freindship over sex. When the main motivation for making freinds is for a mutral sexual arrangement people tend to keep their options open and(often secretly) not adverse to moving on to newer pastures. They also tend to be actively seeking new mates while with you as a fwb. This is often why people like a no strings arrangement (of course nothing wrong with that if honest). But you can quickly find your fwb losing interest and/or time for you. You soon find out the benifits aspect being way more important than the freinds aspect to them. I would always say in general don't expect to much in terms of loyalty and freindship in a fwb situation, it tends to be a fickle arrangement. Loyalty and an on going commitment to prioritise you is very hard to find outside of the confines of a committed form of relationship. Arguably more so with such an endly open market of other potential mates offered on here (and other sites). You'll never really know what the other person intent towards you and them is thorough their words, only really through their long term action. |

I've had a couple, takes ages to find them but it's worth it. Never exclusive though, that's tipping over into bf/gf territory and I'm not interested in that.

We found ours through what was supposed to be a one of meet, but quickly found we got on great clothes on and off.
We now do vanilla dates as much as we do play dates, all our kids play together and we're taking holidays together.
No, we're not exclusive to each other but we do include each other as much as is practical to do so, but distance is a big factor so we try and see each other at least once a month.
It's worked out great, and we really couldn't imagine life without them even if they wanted to go completely vanilla. |

I actually disagree with parts of this ... the secret is the friend bit - forget sex that's an addition which is why it doesn't seem to work on here because what most people want is a fb they are friends with. As with all friendships honesty and trust is paramount ... you wouldn't go to a wedding with someone you didn't trust? Also there is no exclusivity with a fwb anymore than a friend has other friends! It's just 2 adults who are both single at the same time enjoying everyday things like any other friendship... the benefit is in the fact that when it happens you can have awesome sex but like any friendship things are neither here nor there nor set in stone!
I've had one fwb for 14 years, another for 8.5 years and even off here have managed 2 years with 1 and a year with another! But we're friends firstly and we do friend things as with any other friendship but with an added (but never expected) bonus! |

It’s possible. It’s amazing. It can be simple and fun. It is possible to find someone who you have consistently great sex, a good laugh, good conversation, nothing too serious and no pressure....
All I can say is being honest straight up, not playing games and just putting it out there and asking for what you want might just work! In the uk you certainly have the advantages of many likeminded and open minded people on Fab.
As for exclusivity... that’s for you both to decide - I have experienced that and maybe when trust is built and you feel more relaxed in your circumstances you can open things up...
good luck x x x |
Reply privately (closed, thread got too big) | |
Not of any substance, I’ve got some great friends from here, but total friend zoned, with no play just socials now and I’ve meet quite a few people more than once.
I think fwb is a balancing act of friendship and emotional trust, not found that with anyone yet. |

I'm not sure we are in disagreement per se. If anything you add content of the flip side of what I was talking about and what happens when both parties are more about freinds than benifits. My point was that often people or at least one party (sometimes dishonestly) is in more for the sex than the freindship. I argue a good FWB is hard to find, but I don't say it's impossible. Its great to hear you've hard some great long term ones and maybe that's partly credit to your ability find and pick good ones.
All you stated above is possible. I've had good lady freinds who later became fwb as circumstances and desire allowed. If anything the sex was an extention of our freindship and bond. But circumstances change, they are in committed monogomus relationships now. But really nothing has changed, they are still close friends and the love and bond is still there, it's just we don't have sex anymore. Which is fine because our freindship was never about sex, it was just something that we shared together when the circumstances gave us the freedom to.
All I am saying is that experiance tell me good fwb are hard to find especially when people seek driven by the benifits side over the freinds side. And also people can be a bit fickle and/or dishonest about their true intent. |

Still hopeful I will find one - although sometimes it's like looking for a needle in a haystack. |
Reply privately (closed, thread got too big) | |
Over the (too) many years I’ve spent on fab I have been fortunate enough to find a couple of ladies where the arrangement has been more than just a casual hook up.
It seems feelings and emotions get in the way and that’s what seems to bring things to an end, which is always disappointing.
Still looking for the right lady or hot wife coupe though.

I met my fwb as a, probable, one off meet, we spoke about what we wanted and needed,spent almost 12 hours talking and fucking and have seen eachother almost every day for the past 2 and a half years and cohabited for almost a year. It works well for us, most other people don't really understand how we are not a "proper" couple but we are as close as we want to be.  |

Absolutely, especially if neither of you is actually looking for that...
It's probably easier to meet someone in a club rather than on fab, you get chance to see if you click and if there is the right sexual chemistry

I met by best friend on here.
We hooked up for what was supposed to be a casual night of fun but got on really well. Since then we have enjoyed lots of fun but also became good friends. We have been there for each other through the ups and downs and enjoyed normal vanilla mates dates.
We were never exclusive and it was mentioned lots about each of us meeting others, but we never did.
These days we live too far away to meet regularly and are now platonic friends.
So it may make me picky, but that is what i hope for from fab these days..

Mine Fwb was one of the first guys I met on here. We hit it off from day one and for a few months we both met other people; however for the last year or so we have been pretty much exclusive and have met as a couple since then. We are both married and at times it’s been hard not to overstep the boundaries into something more. We both know it’s wrong and can’t carry on forever but it’s also hard just to walk away |

"Musing again.
How does one find a FWB on Fab?
How hard has it been to find one?
If you have one are you exclusive to each other? How did you make that happen?
Bhubaysi
It’s pretty tricky. We want one each for occasional fun but they are so hard to come by. We live in hope.
Then that's a fuck buddy or a hook up, not a fwb.
Lots of men on here are confused with ‘fb’ and ‘fwb’, they think it’s the same......
Tbh there is a huge difference between a proper fwb and a fab fwb and most people on here seem to think a fwb is, in all reality, a fb who you get on with, chat and have a coffee! "
I think there are no rules, and what we require from these arrangements varies with our life situation. Someone in a secure long term relationship will want something different to a singleton who feels they can’t sustain an LTR, for whatever reason. But it can be tricky to maintain a non-committed relationship if you’re a committed type of person. |

Join the 'given up club' - did used to have a FB rather than a FWB, nothing friendly about it, just she used me when she wanted fucking and vice versa, nothing exclusive just someone there for a hard cold fuck when it was needed !
The FWB is a bit more complicated I reckon. |

I've given up looking.
Investing my trust in another on here never seems to go well, and the definition of friends seems remarkably flexible to some.
Without the friendship, the benefits are a little limited....

I found it pretty easy. My first fk on here turned into a very regular and long term thing.
I think you both have to be able to be spontaneous to do it. |

I’m finding the guys who I could potentially have a FWB relationship live miles away.. I’m good to drive, but no more than an hours drive from Swindon!
I’ve now currently just do the clubs, and meet mostly couples, it’s hard sometimes as I feel like I’m the spare wheel, and I’m just improving their sex life?!
Be great to find a partner in crime, who would also be a friend, go to clubs, meets and even travel to swinging destinations...

Absolutely, especially if neither of you is actually looking for that...
It's probably easier to meet someone in a club rather than on fab, you get chance to see if you click and if there is the right sexual chemistry
"
I agree and really love the ‘unexpected ‘. However, at my age and location, clubs are no longer an option. Like to think I’m still fit and not bad looking but the days of eye contact, a smile, some chat etc, are mostly gone. The idea of meeting someone in a supermarket as bandied about on dating sites is an unrealistic fantasy.
As I’m just out of an intense 15 month relationship that ended badly, I’m not looking to go straight back in but do miss / want / crave the company of attractive intelligent women. Looking for more than the occasional fuck but not ready for full time - I like sleeping alone! Most of the time.

Seems we are all finding it really difficult. We make it even more complex in that we are quite attracted by the idea of going off to our respective fuck buddies on the same day every week/month and then coming back with big grins on our faces. So we’ve made the difficult impossible probably. |

That’s rather sad to read Seb.

Not hard at all.
But it wasn't something I set out to find, or was looking for either.
Just happened.. Several times
Exclusive? Absolutely not!
But there is respect & honesty. If any of us are arranging something else then the other is always aware.

Reply privately (closed, thread got too big) | |
I have been fortunate enough to enjoy fwb over most of my time on Fab. One or two ended cos feelings were getting too strong and I found not being exclusive helps keep that in balance.
In each case the friendship almost built first with chatting (and flirting) for a while before meeting. Whilst the initial meets were focused on pleasure the friendships grew and we spent time together doing other things in addition to playing.
Spent Easter Sunday at the beach with my fwb and had a great day. |
Reply privately (closed, thread got too big) | |
It would be nice to have a fwb but I've come to the conclusion if your actively looking it will make it harder to find, just enjoy yourself making friends and such and the elusive fwb will turn up at some point when you least expect it |
Reply privately (closed, thread got too big) | |
Well, I met someone on Fab, we had a few socials then "met' properly.
Found we got on really well as friends too, so now have a couples profile.
I'd say thats a FWB.
Didn't go looking for one. Just found each other. |

Thanks. I’ve tried and enjoyed a few clubs. I met some lovely people had some fantastic conversations and even a little play. Was conscious of being a single guy though. I’d considered Quest as I lived in York most of last year. My son has recently moved there for work. I’ll take you up on that offer if I may? In fact, I need to be in Manchester this coming Sunday to watch Chelsea so could do Saturday at Quest?

Ideally It’s all about meeting someone local enough that you see each other enough to be even classed as FWB or FB. It’s luck of the draw, a local women after the same thing as you is essential. |

It worked in the past and then became a bit complicated because he wasn't honest and you have to be honest just like in any other arrangement.
I have found fwb recently, we both are looking for the same kind of experiences together but still want our own experiences so aren't exclusive to eachother. We are still finding our feet together and learning about what works and what doesn't. Everything is perfect in as far as we are both in relationships and playing with permission so have the same circumstances, he is local so no traveling a distance and he is eager for new experiences and happy to let me have them to. We had to lay some rules after a bump in the road and hopefully that will make things better now. The arrangement should work for both of you. If you want exclusivity then you need to be on the same page from the start. If either of you changes your mind then be honest and it can be really fun and convinient and lead to lots of fun experiences
Hope you find what you are looking for! |

I’ve found that it’s impossible to have a friend with benefits. For me at least.
It always gets too complicated and lines get blurred. I envy those that can prevent that from happening |

"It is easier for women to find one
How? " A woman can go on here, say who wants sex, and would find atleast one suitable person in their inbox. Women say jump, men ask how high, well some do |

I can’t say what I call a traditional FWB on here but I have found people that have become friends with benefits, logistics permitting.

I'd love to find one. Rather than quickish little chat, fuck and leave types. |

I think this is a typical case of SOME men thinking women have it all their own way on fab and can find anything they want at the click of their fingers.
Yes there are many more men on fab than women (and couples) and yes if a woman just wanted a shag I am sure she could find one, but many women on here and many men are fussy they know what they want and don't just want a quick fuck.
so I suppose it is hard to find what you want, as a man, a couple or a woman.
as for the thread being hijacked …. its fab try find one that hasn't been ! |

"I would say a good fwb is hard to find, especially a long term one. And an exclusive one even harder on here (for obvious reasons). Experiance tells me how well you can expect to be treated and how long it last depends to what extent the nature of your freindship is base on freindship over sex. When the main motivation for making freinds is for a mutral sexual arrangement people tend to keep their options open and(often secretly) not adverse to moving on to newer pastures. They also tend to be actively seeking new mates while with you as a fwb. This is often why people like a no strings arrangement (of course nothing wrong with that if honest). But you can quickly find your fwb losing interest and/or time for you. You soon find out the benifits aspect being way more important than the freinds aspect to them. I would always say in general don't expect to much in terms of loyalty and freindship in a fwb situation, it tends to be a fickle arrangement. Loyalty and an on going commitment to prioritise you is very hard to find outside of the confines of a committed form of relationship. Arguably more so with such an endly open market of other potential mates offered on here (and other sites). You'll never really know what the other person intent towards you and them is thorough their words, only really through their long term action." This rings so true in my experience. I was on this site a few years ago and came back on last year. In my experience it would be difficult to find a fwb on here. I met my fwb on another site.

So not true .
Ah you are confusing sex and fwb .
Like a women on here looking for an instant shag then yes she going to be undated with offers of an instant shag but I thought this thread was about how difficult it was to find a FWB not an instant shag |

"Musing again.
How does one find a FWB on Fab?
How hard has it been to find one?
If you have one are you exclusive to each other? How did you make that happen?

It's like trying to plait fog whilst herding cats "
Haha... This! |

I've never really found it that difficult but then again, I've never actively searched for one. I tend to fuck people who I can see as friends and then sometimes more happens.
No, I'm not exclusive but I do try and show respect and openness to a degree with them. |

I really don't think you can actively go looking for a FWB.
You meet someone and find that you click and it happens.

I've never looked for fwbs they have just happened for the last 25 years! Like any actual friend, you don't look for them they just seem to happen |

Reading this thread it amazes me how many people are looking for the same thing. Loads! Yet we can't find it? I think eyes and minds need to be opened. Potential fwbs could be right there in front of you without you even knowing. |

I'm currently looking for a fwb/ club buddy. You'd think the fact that I visit clubs would make it easier.
It's not.. I still live in hope, but I wont hold my breath. |

Possibly but you also have the many men that use this as a carrot to meet women and they have no intention of seriously wanting a fwb partner |

Exactly! Ive had suggestions from the back of this thread from men that I will find a fwb at a club and I actually thought of the conversation you and I had at Quest about fwb’s and they can’t be found at a club.
Why is it so difficult to find a fwb? |
Reply privately (closed, thread got too big) | |
I have / have had lovely FWBs but also a couple whose feelings developed into something more, but mine didn’t. Good FWBs where you’re all on the same page is the best though.
Found them on here and on another site and dating apps. I’d love to have a relationship but I don’t really have time so FWB arrangement fits better with my situation.
