Sometimes I feel like I am an asshole.

Well, I think people are right, and nothing good comes from friends with benefits, and someone is eventually hurt. Apparently, she wants something more than that, and I cannot be in a relationship right now. She knows that, but I guess it's not that easy for either of us to be normal friends at this point.

A while ago, she said we have to be normal friends, and I agreed since I am starting to feel bad and guilty because of how she feels and what she wants from us. She came to my place some days ago to watch a movie together, but the next thing I knew, we were in bed. I don't even remember how it happened.

It's becoming like a cycle. There is some distance between us for some time, but we end up being FWB again after a while. I want it to stop. But I think the only way is we stop being friends, and it's not that easy.

Having the honest self-awareness to even see this clearly is an amazing strength and is the starting point for solving the problem; you can't fix what you don't acknowledge.

@SomeMichGuy Thank you. I noticed you often see positive sides in things, and that's amazing.

@LookingForTheSummer Well...thanks! That makes my day...no, week.

It's nice of you to notice and even more so, to actually note in a post.

I try to encourage those who need encouragement, or help with thinking about a situation in a more productive fashion, etc

But I am also demanding of those who push bullshit... lol

Thanks and I hope you can help navigate both of you to a better resolution of a situation which younfind untenable. Good luck! 😊👍

@SomeMichGuy Well, I am glad about that.
I am not here that much, but I easily notice some stuff about some people here.

Thanks again, and I hope that, too. 🙂
