So I have this friend who hooked up with a female. He explicitly expressed to her that he was not looking for a relationship or anything of the kind, and at most, all they would be is friends with benefits.

She responded that she wanted to be fwb's too. Her caveat is that if my friend were to ever hook up with any other woman, he had to tell her about it.

Is this normal behavior, or is she a stage 5 clinger in hiding?

She may just not want another woman's essence all up in hers.

The sooner you come out to your folks the better, no use in hiding any longer ..

Need a pic of said "clinger" for accurate advice/suggestions.

Until then, OT will be of no help.

Sounds like she wants to be a bffwb.. Easy way to find out though, all "he's" got to do is tell her "he" bedded another lady and see what she does.

Not really another choice if they've already hooked up, unless "he" just sticks with her.




ETA some strategically placed apostrophes to signify your "friend"

Agree to her terms and then lie.

If she wants a detailed description she could just be a cuckquean.

Why does your friend want to get stabbed up?

Did he tell her she had to do the same? If so, what was her response?

Either way, FWB are only frick buddies, nothing more. What he does on the side is none of her business unless he's not wrapping it up.

I think its not abnormal. My wife has a friend (she is not my friend, I can't stand her) that would require this from her FWB. She just wanted to know what was going on, and didn't care but also didnt want to be the guys last option.

Seems reasonable to me.

Of course sometimes these woman want FWB to become relationships, this might be her attempt.

make sure he blocks her on facebook when it all goes down and not to accept random friend request any time after.

In my experience, the girl says that's what she wants, but it isn't what she wants. Eventually she will want to be exclusive, have you meet her parents and introduce you as her bf to everyone. Always happens.

Block her number and move on

I felt a small twinge of guilt yesterday at first but did it and the feeling passed

She's trying to be FWB, but make them pretty much exclusive? Uh no. She's obviously a lunatic
