I think you should be honest and tell him that you don't think a FWB relationship is going to work between the two of you. Just keep it simple. He may be upset, but I think you are doing the right thing. You care about him enough to not want him to get hurt, and it sounds like if you carry on with him, he will get more attached. That will make it harder in the long run. So it is probably best to tell him sooner, before he gets too deeply emotionally involved.

There is no easy way of breaking it off with someone, no matter what kind of relationship it is! But if you don't want anything more than a FWB relationship, then you are doing the right thing. Keep that in mind when you speak to him, and it might give you some courage, even if he does take it a little badly. Good luck, I hope it goes well! x

alexis** agony auntfwb is only great at 1st. if the guy is really sweet you need to tell him the truth as soon as you can. tell him he means alot2 you, but you arent ready to be with someone. maybe you have a sweet friend who is ready to be w/someone seriously & yu can hook them up.

but if yu are goin2 be fwb w/somebody pick a guy who acts like a player..(you no, like someone who dont stay w/ a girl2 long)

goodluck:)
