What to do when you start liking your friend with benefits? My friend and I sleep together but...

When in the midst of a good talk, probably after sex and during a meal, have a blunt discussion about it.
Don't try to qualify you Feelings for him or Excuse Them.

Just lay them out, [b]"I'm starting to like you as:[/b]
A] More than a Human Orgasm Producer."
B] The Interesting Guy behind the Hard Dick."
C] Someone to hang out with Outside of Bedroom Activities."
D] A person that is Worth getting to Know All About."
E] The Man in my Life and future Father of Our Family!"

I think it's ok to see him as more than just somebody you have sex with. You aren't a robot. People will have a positive affect on you as you share emotionally with them. He can still be considered a good friend, even an interesting one. Things don't have to become romantic unless you want them to.

Ive only had one, and I focus more on the platonic friendship with him, because I don't want to lose him by getting too attached to him. Feels complicate tf out of it, when it's just supposed to be NSA.

I think you're doing this wrong, when I was younger and single, my fwb was just a guy that I'd hook up with every now and then and I didnt speak to him outside of this, it was fun while it lasted

That's why your 'friends' with benefits shouldn't be a friend you already had.

And you really should keep the association purely business. No deep conversations and shit. Just wam bam thank ya mam. Easier said than done sometimes, though, I know. Especially for women, who probably release more bonding chemicals after boning than guys do. Boning bonding.

That said, 50% of college students involved in FWBs said the reason they did was hoping for something more. So hey, you prolly got a 50/50 shot.

Maybe time to find a new FWB.

U should tell him how u feel. U mind as well date him since u have a deeper connection to him. Find out if he feels the same. If he doesn't then it may be best to cut him off.
