FabSwingers.com forum: FB vs FWB vs boy or girlfriend. What do you want? Are you in?

The thread title labels, what do they mean to you? What do you see as the difference between them?

Which do you want?

I want a kinky boyfriend but as I'm open to an open relationship perhaps what I want, someone would view that as an FWB?

I'm also aware that there are guys out there who will (or did) agree to my wants cos they'd get a fuck...

With women/femmes and couples

Casual FWB through to very good, very close friend with benefits

With men/mascs

Casual FWB through to serious long term poly/ENM relationship

FWB or boyfriend for me… though chances of finding either are pretty slim.

I have a fuck buddy and it just doesn’t do enough for me.

Always in need of a fwb, a duck buddy seems too boring, I enjoy the being friends part as much as the sex part so that’s the goal!

For me a fwb has to be a friend so I take my time choosing the right one. We need to have things in common as talking is as important as the sex. I would expect to be in communication on a regular basis. A fuck buddy would be someone I communicate with when I want sex.

I'd love a boyfriend but probably more likely to find a FWB. And I agree that lots of guys say they also want a FWB but just want sex. So I've given up on here for now!

This exactly.. however .. when you think you’ve found the perfect fwb.. turns out you slip into fb mode and your back to square one.. so kind of given up x

FWBs for me. People you can meet and do other things with as well as sex and have regular contact with when not meeting. A lot say this is a relationship but it really isn’t. It’s a bubble, we won’t be meeting each others families or ever getting more serious. Feelings are fine and inevitable sometimes when it goes on for a while.

That’s what I like

For me it would depend. I could meet someone in here and it could turn into a relationship, or any other mentioned. It all depends.on the person and circumstances.

I don’t draw a distinction between fb and fwb. To me, both are a regular, without commitments or emotional attachment. I still enjoy the company and intellectual stimulation of both.

Probably where I am going wrong, interpretation….

I have a very kinky bf. He is my soulmate and just gets me. Sex wise I prefer a kinky,naughty and adventurous play partner when we meet others.

I think I ultimately would like a boyfriend because I want emotional intimacy and someone to share life with but I really struggle with commitment and have trauma which makes me put up massive barriers. I get bored with Fbs because they bore me because there is emotional attachment and with fwbs sometimes I choose someone that doesn’t quite meet my relationship requirements but I still enjoy spending time with them and enjoy their friendship.

Ideally a long term FWB really. That’s what I’d like. Age has made me realise some things and what I want. But ideally what I want I can’t have! But I’ll keep looking for that one person

Friends with benefits as a minimum.

To me a fuck buddy is someone that you don’t particularly like, but that you have great sex with. I have moved past even wanting this as an option.

It certainly doesn’t stop me from enjoying life being single though

Fwb, I don't mind them having their own lives, other partner, as long as we get to spend quality time together

BF would be nice to do all the slushy stuff with on a more regular basis.

FB is just a bit cold and empty for my liking.

I don't want a relationship so. FWB situation would be ideal.

But you can't go out looking for that as it just happens after regular meets and getting to know each other.

I'd like a FWB or boyfriend, open relationship would work.

I'd love sex regularly (at least once a week!!) And also would love someone to just hangout with.

Good company. That's all.

Whether that's someone I'm lucky enough to meet regularly, for more than just sex, someone I can meet infrequently when diaries match, or just the rare occasional one off.

As long as there's a good connection and both benefit mutually then it's all good.

*ideally the first though.....

Not actively looking for new romantic partners at the moment but if fwbs turns in sofa snuggles and really liking someone. I'm not opposed to more.

Been looking for fwb more than fb I just appear to have good taste and feelings follow.

Fuck buddy- mutual understanding it’s sex only, not back and forth texting and “normal convos”. Not involved in real life.

Fwb- actual friends who fuck. Friends in the real world and actually do stuff together.

I don’t want either haha but that’s my understanding

I’d rather date if I wanted either of those things

For me, people blur the lines too much. So I keep my dating life and sex life very separate
