Do guys ever catch feelings for their FWB?

[Anonymous]

I've been hooking up with this guy lately and he's being weird... While we were having sex he asked if I was "f***ing anyone else" and I said no and he said "are you alright with that?"

...I don't really understand what he meant by that and should have asked. Any ideas?

Also, we were supposed to hang out but then he had to work so we rescheduled and he worked through that and by the time he was done I had another engagement so told him I can't hangout and now he will hardly talk to me.

Do guys catch feelings? I chose him because due to his life situation and his actions I figured this wouldn't happen with him...

Guys are supposed to be hard. Truth is we are very emotional but we do not express that because we are taught at a very young age not to. Its 'gay'. (just a term young people use). We have strong feelings but usually like to speak that through action. Him ignoring you means you hurt him somehow or maybe he really is busy at the moment. Sometimes I think guys feel more then women do however we hide it pretty well.

Guys can catch feelings, but it happens less often than the girl catching feelings.

They can, but what he said can go either way but with what you say that he g mad when you blew him off then I think he might be truly attracted to you other than sex

Yes, guys can develop feelings. It seems common that in a FWB one of the two people is sure to start to have feelings after a certain amount of time has passed. However, I've also seen people say that guys like to feel like they're the only one even in a FWB mindset, they feel possessive of their partner even if they haven't developed feelings. So it's probably one of those two things.

Sure we can. Is that so bad?
