6 Tips To Know If Friends With Benefits Is Turning Into Something More For Him

When we agree to an FWB relationship, we think it’s the best of both worlds. But do guys get attached to friend with benefits? And most importantly, what does friends with benefits mean to a guy, really? Is it just sex, are there feelings involved? Is it a grey area where there’s nothing but confusion? Everyone likes the idea of a friends with benefits relationship. You have casual sex, hang out, yet not have the commitments of a relationship.

It starts with sex. And then you hang out. And then you have more sex. Ideally, this is the perfect setup, especially when you have a whole weekend with absolutely no plans. But you can’t ignore this one fact: we’re human beings. And when it comes to people, we’re all emotional, regardless of what you’d like to think.

So if you’re wondering what this friends with benefits situation means to a guy you’re sleeping with, take a look at these signs below. If you find yourself nodding to more than a couple of signs, guess what? There’s a very good chance the friends with benefits arrangement is turning into something a lot more intimate for the guy you’re hooking up with!

# He hangs around when not having sex

Friends with benefits isn’t usually leaning on the friend’s side. If anything, it’s a term people use when two people kinda know each other and want to have sex.

In the beginning, it was strictly sex and maybe some cuddling. Now, he calls you to catch a movie or some ice cream. If he’s incorporating you into non-sexual activities where you don’t even have sex at the end of it, he’s getting attached.

# He meets your friends

Usually, when you’re with a guy and having a friends with benefits relationships, both of you stay away from other people. You keep that on the down low and rarely do people know that you’re sleeping together. I mean, only your closest friends know of him. But now, he’s meeting your friends, hanging out with you guys. He’s showing face. By him showing up, he stakes a claim.

# You text/phone each other

And not to plan a time to meet up. You both text or talk to each other on the phone just to say hi or talk about your day. This is no longer a friends with benefits relationship, there are some feelings floating around. If he calls and texts you, he’s into you. If he didn’t like you, he’d keep his communication levels to strictly hooking up.

# You communicate

Not just about sex, you both actually talk about deep things. And he listens. When someone is interested in you, they want to listen to you, to see how your brain functions and what you think about. If not, he would keep the conversation shallow.

# You don’t always have sex

What does friends with benefits mean to a guy you’re hooking up with? If you were strictly in a friends with benefits relationship with him, you may hang out, but sex is usually awaiting you at the end.

Plus, usually, the hangout itself is sexual. Maybe you’re watching a movie or going for a swim at the beach. But he actually doesn’t expect sex at the end of the hangout, nor does he make a move. Sex isn’t the first thing that’s on his mind when he’s with you.

# You’ve met his family and friends

No man, listen carefully, no man would introduce you to his parents and close friends if you were just some girl he was hooking up with. They would not open themselves up to all the questions they’re going to be asked.

If he introduces you to his family and close friends, then he’s showing you off and seeking their approval.
