FWB disappeared. Minimal explanation.

It really, really sucks. And no, I’m not trying to be cliche but I’ve always had a soft spot for him.

Would you like to get together? I could help you get through this.

He’s married and got caught.

Someone that ghosts doesn’t care about etiquette, decorum, good mannerisms. People that have good taste know how to end an 8-ye long casual relationship ship. You don’t have to be dramatic, but you don’t have to just disappear like you died from COVID and no longer exist on the face of this earth.[/quote
Cheaters don’t care. He used her and she settled for it.

Yep. You were used for sex.

Did you go out to dinners, concerts, trips in those 8 years or was it just in the bedroom/hook-ups/bootie calls?

Did you ever meet any of his friends or family member? 8 years is almost a decade and if the answer is “no”, you were hidden for a reason. That reason is most likely he was married, in a committed relationship or didn’t want to be seen with you in public.

OP- are you the same woman that was in an 8-year affair with a married man?

Yep. He will be back through, 8 years is too long. Once his partner is comfortable, he will send you a text.

Block him and don't go back.

+1. They always come back. Block him because he deserves it.

He’s married. He’s been married the whole time.

No. They don’t.

For the ones they do, it’s easy free sex without having to put in the work and hassle of finding a new FWB. Not exactly a compliment or testament to his feelings or quality of sex.

8 years. What a frickin’ waste. I assume you are married too. Why would a single person put up for that for almost an entire decade of her life. Incredibly, incredibly poor self-esteem and low self-worth.

Get yourself in therapy.

You yourself describe as FWB. What more do you really expect?

[Anonymous]

This isn't how a friend behaves. I can understand you're hurt, OP. Sorry. My first thought was that he's married, but who knows...

[Anonymous]

8 years is a lot of time. If he's not married maybe he realizes any time with you is time not being spent pursuing something more meaningful and with a potential future since it's obvious this FWB situation wasn't going anywhere. Sound like he did you a favor so neither of you wastes more time.

Because the operative word is FRIENDS. Friends don't block each other without explanation.
