Alright guys, I’ve always been curious how these kinds of things even start. You know — the casual FWB or “we’re close but not dating” type of setup.
There’s a female friend I’ve thought about having that kind of connection with, but I’ve never brought it up because I don’t want to make things awkward or ruin the friendship. Still, the curiosity is killing me.
So for those of you who’ve done it or have been in that situation:
How did it start?
Who brought it up first and how?
How do you even test the waters without coming off weird or disrespectful?
Really just trying to understand how this happens organically (or not so organically). Appreciate the insights.
