Was this a relationship or just bang buddies?

Women can play games just like men do.  You always hear the women complain and tell stories of their husbands and boyfriends sneaky affairs but men don't have this happen as often to them.  But sounds to me like she was just playing a game and in her eyes winning.  No it is not wrong for you to not want to converse with her and you should not feel that you have to.  Simply say, After what happened between us I have been left with questions in my mind and have chosen that the best thing for me to do is not talk to you, so if you would please don't talk to me anymore it makes me feel uncomfortable as I just don't trust you.  Harsh, but can be done.

I had that experience before - but I broke up with that bf for a very weighty reason, so, even if he continued his pursuit supposedly "in the name of friendship," I didn't give in.  It took out the complications.  Don't sweat it.  :)

Yes, unless you are hot and then your ex should be understanding that he is hooking up his buddy.  Bros before hoes.

If you are ok with it, then no. I think it is a little wrong because with it being a week, it isn't like you have really gotten the chance to get to know each other in a romantic sense. You know each other as friends, but not as romantic partners.\n\nIf you are ok with jumping into the sack with a guy after barely dating him a week, or even just without a dating relationship, it is up to you.

if it needs to be defined, the person isn't ready for a relationship.  as previously stated, it's the same thing.  now, you can introduce someone you just started dating as a friend.  however, when you throw the "boyfriend/girlfriend" title on there, you two are now a couple, which means you are exclusively dating.

I have a few times.  I would have only called one a "relationship."  I don't think you could really maintain a long relationship like that.  It's more for fun.

From what you said it seem to me what went on with buddies of mine when we were young and stupid. I have had buddies that could not stand their girls. And when the sex got boring it was time to bail. If they heard rumor from the girl's posse that she was thinking of dumping him, or that she had dumped him and he was not told yet. they would do a 360 turn and be the most charming you ever seen. To get her liking them again or take them back. Then they DUMPED HER. So, the official story is that SHE did not dump me, I dumped her. I think that is what he did. She came back, he had the power. And he used it. He was never really into her so much as to be the one to turn on and off the tap. She lost. She better just move on.

his friends were probably just messing around.  i know my friends sometimes call my house and say weird stuff but if you are unsure its best to just go and ask him instead of letting it getr in the way of a relationship.

Nah, they said on Good Morning America that they were very good friends, and even denied dating.  But he had that sly smile which makes me think they ARE dating at least.\n \nYeah yeah, I followed this whole thing.

Honesty is the best policy however sometimes it's needed. This theory could be used in an incident that happened to my friend. Here it goes. She hooked up with a friends ex boyfriend shortly after they broke up. A year later after that guy died in a terrible accident a mutual friend told her that they hooked up. That was something that would have been better left unsaid!

Yes, but they have to be on board aswell.    In college i had a great friend with benifits and we would call each other for booty calls all the time.We were good friends that tried to date, but knew that it could not work, we did however enjoy the physical with each other.   The funny thing is that i would call him over, then make him leave right after and he was totally cool with that.  After i started seeing someone seriously we ended the sexual part but remained friends.  I am now married with a child and he is friends with my husband and i.  My husband knows about the relationship also.  I kept things very open.

Dont says its your fault unless it really was. Lets-just-be friends.. um.. ok, if you seriously think thats going to workout. Oy.. third option is so out of the question. Girl, the past is the past. What happens,happens. You gotta move on, there are plenty of more fish in the sea. Believe me.

You say you have been dating . But have you made a commitment to each other? If not just consider it for what it is. He found you to be a friend and some one he likes to be around but,  he is still looking for his one and only.

No not at all, I went through this same thing a couple of years ago a male frined and I both came outta long, serious relationships about the same time and were feeling quite down and bruised by the whole thing and ended up being together alot of the time talking about it and of course one thing led to another and we eventually slept together and it just became a habit (I know that sounds awful!!) but neither of us could face another relationship at that time and we aren't into one night stands so we'd just hook up have the best laugh and then enjoy great sex before saying goodbye in the morning with no pressure it was ideal, it went on for about two yeras until we both just met people we wanted to be with and then it fizzled out but we're still the best of friends now (purely platonic!!) so it worked out fine.  The only thing I'd watch out for is that you both understand the situation if one person has feelings that the other dosen't have then it will cause problems and you shouldn't do it but if you both know it's just sex cos you have needs then go for it.  Good Luck!!

not at all as long as its an agreement between both of you that its just casual sex. nothing wrong with familiar territory!! just dont be leading her on and saying you want to get back together or anything if you dont.

No i dont think that your being cheated on. Your friend was just joking around.If he starts to get to close to your girlfriend then be watchful.But it sounded like a joke.

yes. we got to know each other as friends.. didn't really share many pics. talked for fun.\n\nmet  3 mos later when he was in my state and decided what the hell and to meet for coffee. we had 5 amazing dates before he had to leave and we got to know each other even more when he left again for 3-4 mos.\n\nwe had to work our schedules around talking being on opposite sides of the world. really got to know the real other person b/c we were friends first and talked about a million things. read books and discussed them. asked questions from several dating books. had to communicate with words, written and spoken. didn't take each other for granted. \n\nwe had lived and worked just 10 minutes from each other but were too busy with our jobs to meet otherwise. we now live together and have 2 cats. we started talking may 2005. the dates when he was home was aug 2005. he came home dec 1 2005. we recently moved in together because we were really only apart for about 15 days in the last 8 months.
