I've been engaging in a "friends with benefits" relationship off and on for about 9 years now. It started out as friends who were very attracted to each other, and as time progressed the physical aspects of our relationship increased. We've never actually had a relationship with each other, although we've been in many long term relationships throughout the duration of our arrangement (although this rarely halted our hook ups). When we are together, it reaches incredible levels of natural intimacy. However immediately following this experience, he disengages completely from being a friend, aquaintence, or lover. He'll disapear for weeks on end with no word. I've become accustomed to this, although I don't really understand it. It's not that I want a relationship with him, I got over that a long time ago. I do enjoy the "friends with benefits" when its working, but I am having a hard time with the loss of the friendship in the off time. I guess my question is, what is going on?
