I would say the same. I think that's a good sign. I am an aqua girl with an aqua guy. Same situation..exactly..however...we have been at this a year. Never met his son, family or friends...and honestly I am about to walk away for the last time.
I am very happy for you!!!

This is why I've never been in an FWB situation, too much false hope given to the female in the situation.
FWB's do hang out without sex. FWB situations have a lot of gray areas and the rules are pretty much set by the individual persons involved which means he may not have firm boundaries about meeting his son, friends and family members.
"He told me he wasn't looking for a relationship yet"
I suggest you listen. Get out of la la land that's stuffed with creamsicles filled with hope and listen.
When a man disappears for 2 weeks he's attempting to RESET the situation with you back to FWB/back to the beginning.
There can be no moving forward if he's periodically moving backwards but he does not want and will not come right out and say I'm in it for the sex only because you would have the control and power to decide to discontinue the physical part of the connection.
A man can have sex with you, enjoy your company, introduce you to the priest, the choir, the whole family and talk about you and still not want a relationship. Sex and commitment are not one in the same.
He's committed to you but does not want a relationship---utter world salad--pure bullshit. Selling false hope to keep you in the position you're in.
I believe you're missing the mark on this one. Your guy friends most likely are 99.999% accurate about this guy. Why? Because those very same guy friends are either doing the same thing to someone or have done it before.
You've lost control over this situation because rebound or not you settled for less and you put yourself in a position to hope for more and that kind of hope for more space feels powerless as if you have no say in the direction you wanna go with him or with any man.
You're in a sticky position because you now have to WAIT and WAIT and WAIT and HOPE and HOPE and HOPE that every word/behavior means something, that the we talk is really about "us and we" always reading between the lines.
I dunno if you can do better but at some point you'll have to figure out if you can and if you will do better. If this drags on longer than a year you're stuck not just emotionally but in every way possible.

i am an aqua female....but i think i know what i am saying...don't hope for much....sicerely...
introducing sb to my parents means NOTHING to me...i could introduce him tonight and leave him next day...it's my life, not my parents...we make commitments to ourselves, not to society or family members...
read tiki's post...she was more patient describing it. pretty much this is the thinking process...

watery emotionality...
don't make me be bad to you...please...
when you started your FWB situation, you were ok with using each other...now you are not...plus we, all the aquas are at fault with him not committing to a woman who has accepted a FWB situation because she was "on the rebound"....jeeeeeeeeesus!!!
i'd rather you showed this frustration to him and to you, not to me or tiki or whomever on here...
you have a "relationship" with his son...maybe you should have secured a relationship with the father first and then get the little guy involved...this was immature of both of you...

Oh yea, I forgot to mention that I've had a situation like this with an aqua before (minus kids). He was very good at blurring the lines between being in a relationship and being fwbs. He wanted everything that came with a loving relationship, but he did not want the responsibility that comes with the title. It wasn't until I left (for good) that he wanted to make it official.

I must've deleted something to make that quote messed up...
This is simply what I'm going through. one minute he says we are friends, then we are friends with benefits, then we are seeing one another then friends again. How did you just walk away so easily?
I think about him more then I'd like to admit it. How did he react when you walked away?
that's what I wrote lol not sugarfoot.

Be clear with yourself first. Do you want a relationship with him? Are you uncomfortable the way it is now??
Don't just walk away because you are never going to know what he's thinking. Convey what you would like for yourself, in your life right now.
Alot of women don't have this talk because they are afraid of what the answers will be.
Also, be ready to walk away if he can't meet your needs.
He will respect you way more for laying it all out instead of putting up with scraps.

This ^^.
Just tell him you're interested in a real relationship and that's what YOU need in your life right now (if that's what you want). Ask him what his thoughts are on that. Don't tell him what he is doing wrong, focus on you and what you want in YOUR future. Don't word it where it includes him, just word it where its about what you want. This is what mature women do.
If he says he can't provide that, then you have your que to walk, because he is happy with the status quo and isn't going to change it.
It's really very simple.

So I've been a FWB since about October 2013 with this gorgeous single father Aqua. At first I was sure it was just a sexual attraction I had for him, but after I had him physically I wanted more of him. I met his son the second month we hung out and we have even hung out and not had sex so it wasn't just a FWB thing. We used to text everyday and see eachother every weekend. However since about January he started pulling away. When we hung out the first time after he pulled away for 2 weeks he almost said I love you to me, and I stopped him. He was drunk, and I didn't want him to regret saying it to me the next day and have my heart break. He told me he wasn't looking for a relationship yet, that he needed some time to figure himself out, and I was cool with that since I was on rebound anyways. He says to me he isn't looking for anyone else, or sleeping with anyone else, and he doesn't want to lose what we have, that he is committed to me but I don't have a title. Recently his son told me his dad loves me and when I asked his dad this, all he could reply was " I'm not ready to say I love you, since it is a strong term. I do care about you alot, and enjoy spending time with you, and you must be in great shape because I think about you daily. I also get disappointed when I don't see a text from you once a day" ... I didn't know how to take that. So two weeks ago we're all hanging out him, son and me and he turns to me and asks " want to meet the in-laws?" and I was so taken back by that I didn't know what to do, lol but I met his mom and dad and had dinner with them, it was so nice. When I left, his mom said to me "it was nice to finally meet you, I have heard so much about you."
So my question is WHAT IS HE DOING HERE??
Am I just being used for my company, or am I thinking too much into it, and he possibly may actually care for me? Please someone shed some light into this confused Pisces woman's mind.

He wants me when he can't have me...but when I am around he could care less.

I have told him what I want. He has even agreed but has made no effort. He wants me around on his terms. We have seen each other 2x in 2 months. But he is in contact way more. He frustrates me.
I have decided to end it. I just can't be with someone who doesn't want to see me...or go out with me. I will be ending things this week...its going to be hard. We have broken out off 5 times and he comes back. This is the only way to get through to him and this time for good. I have completely lost interest because he doesn't want to make time for me. We have seen each other on a weekly basis until 3 months ago. We have been together a year...unofficially.
I know I have my work cut out for me when I do leave. 😢 He is so persistent.

I didn't walk away easily. It was after 2.5 yrs of it. I was able to walk for good because I found out that he'd lied about some very important things and I knew I could never trust him and I was extremely disgusted.
When I left, at first, he thought it was just another cancellation notice, gave me some time, and then came back around like nothing ever happened. At this point usually I would cave and go back. When I kept rejecting him, he started doing desperate stuff like showing up to my job. Then being very persistent asking me to see him. Then, finally telling me his emotions and inviting me to meet family. Then saying he was ready to have it ALL with me (meaning he wanted to move in together, smh). I rejected and/or ignored. Fast forward to 3 yrs later, he texts about every 3 wks "checking up on me" and making sure I'm being treated well by my bf. As if he gives a fuck. He's just checking to see if I'm single again smh.
Just be prepared that when you leave, he will try to reel you back in. If you go back, don't expect anything to be different. It won't. As a matter of fact, the more times you go back, the worse the treatment will be because respect is diminished every time.click to expand
