...between a FWB and a FB can anyone tell me?

Just reading a different thread where they're both mentioned but I don't want to derail it by asking there.

I think the FB is just repeat meets. Whereas FWB would be socialising together as well.

Fuck buddy to me is just sex, simply call to me, fuck me and leave.

I had a fwb when I joined and it was great, meet up regularly for lots of hot sex, sleep overs, meet for lunch. Went to the gym a couple of times. We talked about thinks etc

Of course, makes complete sense!

For me there has to be some sort of connection though before I'd sleep with someone. Definitely more a FWB than a FB kinda gal.

This. ☝️

Sometimes with a FWB it gets a bit clingy over time. I hate the ‘good morning’ and ‘good night’ texts as it’s getting deeper than what I want. In my opinion only.

I hope you tell them that at the start.

I would suggest physical connection only for FB and FWB for me includes being friends at least on some level.

I haven't ever really experienced having a FB and don't think it would suit me, much prefer a connection on more than just a physical level.

Fwb is better than fb rather meet and chill after hooking up going for food or whatvere other than just saying see ya later

Fb is a fuck buddy. Just sex. Not for me personally. FWB. Friend with benefits. A friend to hang out with, curl up on the sofa with, get food together, socials together and so on. And sometimes have sex together. Almost impossible to find.

Of course, however, I hope, being an adult, they’d also let me know from the start what they expected. Better that everyone knows from the start. There’s no hidden surprises later down the line.

Yep I agree with others FB is someone you get on with and want to have sex with but that's it.

FWB you build a friendship as well and hang out together when you meet as well as have sex .

I've had both and definitely prefer a fwb situation.

But you both have to be on the same page for it to work.

Thankfully I don't have this issue I'm shocking at answering texts and definitely not into the good morning or good night shite

Definitely agree with the other posters that fwb is more if a connection than turn up fuck and leave. That's more of a booty call. Definitely relies on the good sex aspect where a fwb has the sex and connection that I'd be looking for

Have never known too many to be into the whole 'good morning' 'good evening' nonsense unless they're dating tbh.

It's refreshing to see that most people who've replied are actually interested and needing some sort of connection and not just a shag n go set up.

Now to find it! Ha!

I think the word friend is the most important letter in FWB

I don't think that's true. But it depends how far the friendship goes and the boundaries put in place, if any.

One of the benefits of having an amazing FWB is that the friendship is one of the benefits.

I've had FBs in the past but have no interest in that sort of relationship now.

The lines can get a bit blurred in my experience... My fb turned into a fwb over time (a year). We became closer through lots of chatting, we usually spend at least 3 hours chatting as well as shagging. But we don't text each other or socialise outside of that at all. I prefer it, it's less complicated but also feels sweet 😍

Definately the fwb route for me. Once you had a good friend with benefits, the fb route just doesn't appeal for me anymore.

Friendship + Trust = Amazing sex.

Problem is finding another good one! 🤣😂

Yep, that sounds perfect. A natural evolution but neither living in the others pocket and both respecting boundaries

You've got a great setup there.

My understanding would be think of your own circle of friends, some closer than others. Wether you communicate on a daily basis, or weekly, meet for coffee lunch dinner regularly, but I suppose in this lifestyle the Benefits being with a person you connect with on numerous levels would include sex. That's my 2 cents worth
