Guys, how do I make my fuckbuddy think I'm also seeing other guys (jealous) to make him stop taking me for granted?

[Anonymous]

Yes I do know that I have hit a low..

He has started to take me for granted - probably because he know I'm only seeing him, while he sees other girls.
How can I make him think / suggest that I'm also seeing other guys / or want to?

He asked if we could hang out yesterday. I said "I can't for the next few days, sorry".

So what would make you think I'm with a guy - snapchat stories and stuff like that

Unfortunately that goes along with the fwbs it seems for a lot of people.

But to answer, you can't because even if you can make him jealous, (which I highly doubt because he would have to CARE somewhat to be jealous, and I doubt he does? If he did, he probably wouldn't be taking you for granted to begin with.), but if you could, he'd probably still take you for granted just because of the nature of the relationship (or it would at least feel that way to you).

So, what this means is you have to decide if this is working for you still or not? Because you're not likely to change him. So, can you also take him for granted and live with it, or is it time to move on? If you are starting to develop feelings (sounds like maybe?), then you need to talk with him about it/them and see if he's on the same page or not. Or, if you're not willing to risk that, then maybe it's simply time to tell him that this isn't working for you anymore and end it?

I wish you didn't feel this way... It makes me sad. Why not just see other guys then? Don't play these mind games, it isn't right. Or talk to him about it. Put him on timeout. There are other ways that aren't so... pathetic... sorry.

You can't make someone jealous in a friends with benefits relationship smh. There is not jealousy if there are no feelings involved. I don't get why people treat friends with benefits as a romantic relationship. It is all about sex, nothing more. Like you said he has other girls.

Easy. You talk about other guys you’re busy seeing too. Put on your story of other guys. Have him chase you a little. However, it’s hook ups.. it’s just gonna be about both your needs whenever that is.

Very bad idea... and it very likely wouldn't work anyway. He's a fuck buddy, so he fundamentally takes you for granted already. Duh. If he does take the bait it will only be because he doesn't want to lose his free 🥧 pie.

[Asker]

That's kind of what I want haha - for him not to take my body for granted lol

[spartan55]

You aren't getting it. He will ALWAYS take it for granted because he doesn't respect you. What do you think will happen if you do this very immature stunt?

[Marcuslrh]

Is that not the point with fuck buddy's? you take each other for granted no strings attached? Think you miss understood the concept of what your involved in probably a good idea to move on if you can't take it

[Marcuslrh]

I can't see him getting jealous but you could change your best friend's name In your phone or something and have them message you a lot I guess🤷‍♂️while use are together and make sure you prioritize answering it stupid but just little stuff like that but I dont see the point lol it's a fuck buddy get over it

[Scropgirl]

Super easy.. when you are with him.. just bring it up that i have seen so and so guy and his body is super cool and stuff (but don’t over do it). You can see if he is jealous based on the way he reacts to this.

[dataminemebby]

No games, if he's taking you for granted... Don't grant yourself to him.

[Gwenhwyfar]

Don’t even bother doing that. Just stop fucking him till he quits taking you for granted.

[I-have-a-biscuit]

[Slate69]
