Friends with benefits with my ex?

[Anonymous]

My ex (30) and i (26) currently live together until our lease ends in December we recently decided to become friends with benefits and we both agreed to be completely honest with each other and end the friends with benefits relationship if one of us started seeing someone else. Lately our friends with benefits relationship has been going good he has been treating me really good and doing things for me he didn’t do while we were together I thought we would eventually give our relationship another try but lately it seems like he’s seeing someone else I asked him if he was seeing other people a few days ago he told me he was not and now today he’s telling me he won’t be home because he’s going to his cousin house he told me the same exact thing last week should I sit down and have a conversation with him, just end the friends with benefits relationship or just wait until I have more proof of him seeing someone else?

Tbh if I were you I’d make things platonic until I moved out. Sure he could agree to be upfront with you but how much weight does that promise hold? At the end of the day he’s single and you aren’t entitled to his honesty, which is harsh but true. He may keep certain things to himself as to maintain peace with you and still get the beneficial part of your arrangement. It’s barely January, you’ve still got the whole year to work through and you still love him, so why would he tell you he’s moving on? You’re not even a couple anymore to sit him down and confront him as if he’s being unfaithful anyway. Remove all that complication, let him do his thing, and you do yours.

To be honest, the purpose of friends with benefits is to see and have sex with different people.
