Here's a story. Mark and Sarah were in a fwb situation. They both had busy lives. Mark was a doctor and Sarah was a teacher. Their fwb relationship worked well because they respected each other's time and space. They would meet up when they both had free time. They shared their daily struggles and joys. Mark would talk about his difficult patients and Sarah would share stories about her students. This relationship helped them grow as individuals and they ended it on a positive note when their lives took different directions.
One fwb success story could be about two friends, Jake and Amy. They decided to be fwb as they both were not ready for a committed relationship. They were honest with each other from the start. They supported each other's careers. Jake was starting his own business and Amy, who worked in marketing, gave him great advice. They also had a lot of fun together, traveling to new places on weekends. Eventually, they parted ways amicably when Jake met someone he wanted to be in a serious relationship with.
