He said "wish i could see you that often :P" "i'm pleased for you but i'm a bit jealous too, i know that sounds weird."I've always liked him ever since we were FWB but it didn't turn into anything more than that and he has been with his current girlfriend for over a year.Why would he be jealous? He has a girlfriend. I asked him why would he be jealous but he went offline. I sent him a text just joking saying "you're happy i'm happy so it's all good. Wish me luck ;) x". He hasn't replied to me.

He made an excuse about us living too far apart, which in a way is true as we don't see each other too often because he's away a lot and things.

reader, anonymous, writes (11 February 2011): I don't know what most of the people here are talking about. He obviously has regrets and wants another chance with you, but he seems somewhat insecure and unsure of how to tell you that. He feels like his "I'm a bit jealous" comment should have been enough to indicate to you that he wants you back, but you rather insensitively acted as if you didn't understand.

 The guy is a player who likes getting his ego stroked by women even if it is online. You telling him about your date was a narcissistic injury so he felt ocmpelled to tell you he was a bit jealous so you would give him more attention.
He is playing a game with you, he has a girlfriend, be happy you aren't her, and FWB is ALWAYS a bad deal for the woman because it NEVER turns into anything else. A guy will not treat a woman who is girlfriend material like that and you aren't girlfriend material if you settle for that.
Lesson learned, move on.

All maybe he realises how much he likes you and wants to be with you or he just missies the time u shared together There are two things u can do 1 is stick to ur guns because it didn't work out the first time so why would it work out this timee 2 meet up with him and ask him face to face then you can see if he is being real or just being nice
Good luck

Most of the time, in FWB relationships, one of the two members tend to be more involved than the other. That's why I don't find such relationships useful.

He's jealous because he wants to have his hands in all the pies (figurately speaking)
He doesn't like you enough for you to be his girlfriend, but he is jealous enough to not want to think of you with someone else. Bit of a emotional coward, if you ask me!
Enjoy your dating and put the FWB guy behind you you, he can only cause you problems in your future.

All a bit mysterious really, but try not to think any more of it. Sometimes things set out to confuse you and throw you off balance. I think this may be just one of those 'throw away' comments that sets you thinking.
