Friends with benefits' jealous ex girlfriend is getting in the way. Should I still get involved with him?

[Anonymous]

Hi guys so I recently entered a friends with benefits relationship with one of my 'exes' (we were friends with benefits before)

He and his ex broke up last summer because he wanted to see other people, but they are still seeing each other casually on a frequent basis. (I maybe get to see him once every 2-3 weeks even though Id rather it be a weekly thing, and he is seeing her twice a week). The sex is fantastic! (not just on my end, I make him finish fast which he loves ;) )
Anyways, he told me that she doesn't like the idea of me, and gets mad everytime he brings me up. She is very clingy, and he says that she needs 'more of a connection'.

A) Is it wrong for me to be jealous of how often they hang out. (I dont want a relationship with him, just a friends with benefits one)
B) Should I even get involved? Or should I mention this to him?

Ugh this sounds like there's gonna be drama (especially coming from the ex's end). I think there's nothing wrong with mentioning it to him since you guys are friends after all but if I were you, I would remove myself from the situation asap. They seem to still have an actual thing going on and the ex is trying to get rid of you. What did your friends with benefits have to say about all this?

Yeah thats what Im fearing. Im super chill with everything, but I just wish we'd hang out more. Ill bring that up with him and potentially ask why he's seeing her more if she is also just a friends with benefits. I know in calling him out on it, that may trigger things :-/

He does know that she is trying to get rid of me, and isn't happy about him seeing other women... but he also told me that he doesn't want to be with her romantically :-/

I think you should definitely talk to him about it. He seems to still want the ex around for attention at least but he at the same time he likes getting it from you too. I think he just wants his cake and to eat it too... friends with benefits relationships are all about getting each other's needs met and if you feel like he's unable to meet your needs by hanging out with you more then I don't think it's working out

He knows that his ex gives him attention and that she wants more, still although he doesn't want that with her, he chooses to keep her around. He also may know that it makes you jealous and unfortunately he might see this triangle thingy as a good thing (it's good for him I guess).
