"If you have a fwb how do you define respect between each other? "

Being respectful of each other would be rooted in open and clear communication about how you want to interact and how to check in on any changes in want/need over time. Also to be gracious of the fact that wanting to talk something through is healthy and helps reset the ability to have fun and not cause harm, it doesn’t mean wanting more.

Being respectful of them like I would be with a friend - if I'm spending time with them, focus on them. Listen to them - not just hear but properly. Honesty and open communication about things.

It is a funny one because everyone might have a different conception Of what is acceptable or not as I learnt.

However, I think there are some ground that mostly all people should agree on.

No sex after midnight

Is that so they don't turn into Gremlins?

I fail to see how respect for a fwb requires any different respect to that of another person I am friends with, just that the respect extends to the bedroom, which in turn is the same respect I'd show somebody I was in a relationship with.

Saying that I rarely have sex with anyone I'd not consider at least a priority acquaintance anyway, but still.

To me respect of a fwb is in treating them firstly as a friend, checking in with them in between sexy time, having actual conversations that kind of thing. Also in open and honest communication and never taking anything for granted.

This was the reason why my last fwb is now listed as previous rather than current. Took a while to work it out, he always knew what to say to win me back round

I think this is a very tricky question. How do we choose our fuck buddies? When does a fuck buddy become a friend with benefits and when does a friend with benefits become the one?

Isn’t it related to trust and how much you’re willing to give them of yourself? And isn’t this related in part to mutual respect? Like I said, great question OP.

I see trust and respect come hand in hand that maybe where i have gone wrong.

He did what no one else was allowed with me because of respect and trust and because of the initial respect I trusted him to do what he did.

I feel disrespected by something he did recently which I guess broke trust and it’s angered me.

I can only tell what I find disrespectful:

-rubbing other woman into my face, -not keeping promises/word: "let's meet on my day off" and cancelling last minute with excuses then posting: free/horny tonight, how's around etc. Or let's go here, let's do this and dissapear then text weeks later he misses me

- ignoring my texts

- ignoring/not acknowledging my needs and wishes

- trying make me do something I'm not into

- trying to fuck me without condom

- leave me behind on a party

- showing my pictures to his lads

- calling after midnight that his horny and wants to come over

- not being fair: I paid for a taxi to come to you - offer me a cab to go safely home.

I think it depends on the relationship and what you both want and need.

Being honest and sticking to any ground rules is a good basis but also treating them as you would any other friend alongside being honest about any changes you may want that would affect your dynamic.

For me, friendship first..we chill together, eat, watch films, he's ace..I think respect would be not taking him for granted, and communicating with him if I wanted a meet with anyone else..but I dont as he's ace and I would rather spend time with him than anyone else. X

Also this, it is how I differentiate between Friend with benefits, and fuck buddy.

While respect is there regardless, a friend with benefits will (at least on my part) always be able to push the "benefits" aside and come to me as a friend, a fuck buddy I'd not really consider going to them as a friend or even think I'd be considered for them to come to.

I think boundaries are different for every fwb 'relationship' as long as the boundaries are ones that you are both happy to adhere to and therefore keep to them then I believe that's most respectful.

Me and my fwb contact each other every day.

We prioritise meeting each other.

We make each other and aware if we have meets with others. We discuss any boundary changes together.

My fwbs are no different to any friend relationship! Firstly I'd have to be with someone I respected and that would be mutual and trust is built over time!

Not sure I'm capable of being friends with anyone I didn't respect and visa versa

Why do peole think that a FRIEND with benefits is any different to a normal friend relationship? Surely you go out for drinks, dinner, cinema etc otherwise it would just be a fuck buddy?

your imagination

We talk, we consider each other's feelings in our interactions with others and generally just look out for each other because neither of us would like to see the other get hurt... Pretty much like any close friendship really.

I think they want 'dial a fuck' but just pretend to be FWB. Once they've got the fuck they're not bothered about the friends bit.
