Simple solution, don't go in the Pub HE works in,keep your private life private.

FWB is just a mate you have sex with so you or he can date/sleep with somebody different every night if you wanted. He did not want a relationship.

If you don't like his moods then stop seeing him

person12345 agony auntFirst off, you like him and he rejected you, it is time to move on. This will end in heartbreak for you, no question about it. My guess is you're only sticking around in the hopes he changes his mind, well why would he? He's happy right where he is AND he knows you like him and therefore controls all the cards. It's time to leave him and find someone who will return your affections.

Second off, tell him that he was the one who didn't want a relationship. If he wanted you exclusively, he had the choice to do so and chose not to.

FWB relationships are messy. Because it's a messy concept for a relationship. Being FWB is more like a half boyfriend-girlfriend relationship where one or both members are too afraid of commitment. And chose this kind of label to feel free. But when signs of jealousy show up you can tell this label doesn't work. :)

Firstly I never tell him about the other guys I meet he is a barman in onr pub where I met a man at the weekend and secondly if I do meet anyone I don't do anything about it so I'm not sleeping or seeing other people

AuntyEm agony auntAdding a different spin on it...maybe deep down you tell him about the other guys because secretly you are hoping his jealousy and fear of losing you will drive him towards asking you for a love relationship?

If that is true...it probably won't work. He gets moody because he doesn't want to lose the 'free sex'.

You don't have to share any information about your dating life with your FWB! I suggest you keep your personal life with him seperate & that way you don't continue to have his pouting. He didn't want to be in a relationship with you.....so stop hating because someone else does!

Your fwb wants sex with you and nothing more. But doesnt want anyone else having sex with you.

If you dont want him getting moody then stop seeing other guys. If you want to carry on seeing other guys, then end it with your fwb.

It's that simple!
