"guy code?"
My girl friend and I are going through similiar situations right now (friends with benefits)... over the weekend we got to talking and I mentioned my guy giving me mixed signals. She said her guy is guilty of doing the exact same thing.
Guy gets jealous when I/she talks to another guy, BUT yet our men try and hook us up with their friends or dudes ( Read more... )

It could be, your FWB is more emotionally involved than he is letting on, and introducing you to guys to compensate, or it could be that what you perceive to be jealous behavior is really something else.
If you are interested in the person you might date this weekend, then by all means, go on a date! But don't do it in the hopes of making your FWB realize anything. Men just don't function that way. They don't pick up on the same social cues and subtle hints that girls are trained to recognize from a very young age.
The best way to make your FWB realize the things you've listed is to sit down with him and have a quick chat. Let him know that you intend to date others, but that you aren't interested in the fellas he's been introducing you to.
Because of how you phrased your last comment, I'm not exactly sure what you mean by it, but either way, these kinds of things are best expressed candidly in plain English. It may seem a bit awkward or whatever, but ultimately, he will appreciate your honesty and you will reap the benefits of proper communication.
BTW, your post leads me to suspect that your feelings for your FWB aren't strictly platonic. I may be wrong here, but either way, be honest with yourself about your feelings for this guy, and then be honest with him.
