Did any of you turn a FWB into a... relationship?

To answer your question, I have not. Once feelings come into play I'm done. I'm just not in a place where I'm looking for that, to be honest, I find guys who are into me to be unattractive. It's a bit of a problem...
What about girls?
I tend to not date girls because of the whole feelings thing; girls are my "sometimes treat" as my friend calls them.0 -
I'm actually doing this now.
I currently have a FWB.. But we are talking about starting a relationship within the next couple weeks.
I'm really glad I wasn't the only person who had that thought.0 -
At what point to you realize you aren't going to and don't want to date other people?? Cause then they're no longer a FWB, you just are in a relationship but in denial! *LOL*
It makes me feel like a needy prude to have to have some sort of expectation of monogamy within a few months... *LOL*
For me, I was like "Look, I'm in med school now, and there's hot successful guys all about, so if you wanna lock it down, now would be the time."
And he was all "****. Well, alright."0 -
Next question why do you care if your friend has benefits...it's not like you can be on their health insurance.0

Love it.0 -
No....I hate to admit this, but I am too prude to even have a FWB.
Yeah, don't be ashamed. I haven't either. I didn't think FWB happened that often. God, I feel so sheltered.0 -
I started out as FWB...then it turned into relationship, then back to FWB...then back to relationship...it's been a revolving door for me...I am ready to stop the door...LOL becuz I have commitment issues!!! UGH!0

I had a really good friend that turned into a FWB . Problem was to me that meant I was still single and ended up starting to date someone else. Since I didnt want to juggle people (ew) I told him we could no longer be FWB. He didnt take it well. Turns out he was in love with me and I had no clue. To this day he still gets kinda wierd around me. Its almost like now that Im single he wants to go that route again but doesnt want to say anything. Currently this is all Im looking for.My relationships tend to be very one sided and this was much easier.0

I'm voting that you're really tired!!!0 -
Yes. But I don't feel like getting into the details now. It just happened. I think we waited for longer than a year to discuss.0

My FWB always stayed FWB. I never stayed long enough/interested enough to have it turn into anything.
That and for some it's a hard transition when your entire relationship only exists between 2-4am.0 -

Thats not a FWB, that's a booty call. In a FWB, you actually have a friend relationship. At least that was my understanding...0 -
I had a FWB in college but ended it when I found someone else and was in a relationship for 3 years. At then end of that relationship, the FWB said he made a mistake letting me go and wanted something more. We were together for a year and a half. It was a great relationship but I don't think he and I were meant to be together. Now we're back to FWB.0

That is exactly what I was thinking. FWB and Booty call are two very different things.0 -

Luckily, I like.

I'm just as mental... Once they are all in I lose interest sometimes. WTH. Ridiculous.
I used to be like this too.....thrill of the chase and all. That's how I knew my hubby was the one.....when he started liking me back I still liked him too!!!
But I'm also very old fashioned....I believe that any sexual relationship should be with someone that you are committed to so I'm kinda against the whole FWB thing. I would say no sex until marriage but I didn't believe that when I was younger and made 1 mistake before my husband. Now that is what I believe.0 -
My husband and I started as just friends and stayed that way for almost a year before we started dating. Unfortunately for him, he didn't get any benefits until we had officially defined the relationship!0

Don't want to sound all sappy and get my man card revoked, but since my wife is my best friend and we are enjoying the "benefits", I suppose my relationship and FWB are one and the same.0

You didn't move away because of it, did you? Haha, that seems a little drastic!0
