Awkward...

My FWB just signed up for my flag football league--it's only 60 people and there's a group of about 20 friends who are pretty close.  This wouldn't be so bad if the group didn't ALL know about him...even the guys.  

Who had that post about over sharing last week?  Damn those post-volleyball cocktails and talking about sex/dating!  

Damnit, why did I think it would be ok to mix friends and FWBs?!

Re: Awkward...

  • Pleeeeeease tell us how that goes.
  • Is he also friends with your friends? If not, I think I'd feel even more akward for him than you.

    May this be a lesson to all those who think FWBs are a good idea!

    Nope!  That's the awkward part.

  • Did you mention his name? If not, they won't put 2 & 2 together.  If you did, "nah, that was some other dude named....."

  • Is it just that its your FWB being there that's awkward, or is it because they all know that he is your FWB? Just curious...

    I know many of my friends know that I've had a FWB, but they don't know who it is. In fact FWB, another co-worker and I just had lunch together today - and co-worker has no clue that FWB is who he is. Now if it was known, that would have been very awkward and probably wouldn't have happened. And to add to it, the FWB is actually a guy that sits directly across from me at work. Nobody knows about it and we've been very open in what our expectations are (or lack thereof).

  • And this is why my FWBs are located all around the country with little no chance of interaction. Wink

  • It's that they will know it's him.  

    Even if they don't put the name to the person (unlikely because it's not a common name and I've mentioned it), they know I have a thing for trucks and big dudes.  He is huge, drives a huge truck and I will be the only person he knows on the league.  

    Meh, I'm probably freaking out over nothing.  I doubt anyone really cares that much about my life, right?  At least we'll get some sweaty post-football sexy time after the games!

    No

    Well if you care more about what people think than doing what you want... I guess so.

    To the OP, don't be embarassed. People will sense it, and mess with you! Hold your head high, and act normally. Sex is normal, and you're a grown up.

    You're right.  Plus, half of the group of friends are sleeping with each other anyway.  It's an incestuous bunch.  Thanks!  At least I know I'm sleeping with the hottest one Wink

  • Hahaha!  If I were one of the other guys who knew I would be giving you hell every game....in fact you would probably slap me.  Oh that would be so much fun.  Terms like "illegal touching" and "going all the way" would be quite common. 
  • Yeah, I wouldn't over think it.  Even if they figure it out, I doubt they will say anything.

     My sentiments exactly!  Eh, who cares ...they'd probably just be jealous anyway!

  • It may be awkward if he starts dating someone on the team. Other than than, adults have sex, most other adults don't care unless it somehow affects them.

    How did he come to join?
