Ok that's fair. do you really think that you can have sex with a boy and NOT have feelings for him? I know I can't. I have to be emotionally attached in some way and care in some way in order to have sex...

I just wanted some advice - there's no need to judge before you know the whole situation. But thanks to those of you who were trying to be generally helpful. x

Hi I would not get yourself into a fwb relationship I have just got out of one that was wrong one of you will only end up getting hurt by this if you or he starts seeing someone else either the woman or the man (usually the woman) starts having stronger feelings for the man obviously this is your choice but be carefull you don't get hurt if you really want a fwb with him then maybe text him and casually ask how he feels about fwbs that way if he replies what you don't want to hear then you won't look stupid

Why at your age do you even want FWB?

You will risk looking stupid if he's not up for it. But if he's up for it you won't be looking stupid. I felt pretty darn awkward when I was hooking up with my first lover. I first sent him a text asking if he was up for something interesting and special? And then asked if he'd want to be FWB. Then gave him the rest of that day to think about it and talked to him next day at school. It took me weeks though to warm him up, he was, like most teenage boys, shy. I found occasions to invite him over to my place, only to sleep over and not do anything, and then we started slow with kisses and making out, and it took weeks before we actually got to the stage where we had sex.

I know this probably sounds stupid to you, but are you sure you understand what a FWB is? Because most of the time, it's the girl who walks away hurt.
