friends with benefits to something more?
friends with benefits to something more?
So let's say there is a girl that you are currently friends with who you've talked to off and on for a while, and really started hanging out with about two months ago. After going out a few times, you were slightly buzzed, she was drunk, you have sex in your car in some parking lot. That was over a month ago.
Ever since then you have progressively hung out more, and had sex multiple times. In general there is affection shown by both parties. Even when no sex or alcohol is involved she'll let you lay there with your arms around her, hand holding, some kissing...etc. We've also had a few serious/long talks about things. She stayed over my house last Thursday night and we didn't sleep at all. We had sex 3 times throughout the night, cuddled, talked a lot; yes alcohol was involved, but arrangements to sleep over were made beforehand. We had plans to go out friday night and her stay over again (sleep this time around), but that didn't happen because she was tired (I know that she stayed home and didn't go out with anyone else). Saturday I was with her for about 6 hours.
So my question is simply do you think there is a possible future with this girl someday becoming a girlfriend? I know damn well that I've already started to get feelings for her. Normally when you are a 'friend', you get stuck in the 'friend zone', but 'just friends' don't normally have sex?
cliffs:
- friend that you've had sex with multiple times
- you start to develop feelings
- can this turn into a grilfriend down the road or are you simply stuck as 'a good friend'?

Well I don't remember how it exactly came out Thursday night but...she told me that she likes me a lot, cares about me, wants me in her life, but right now doesn't see us going past friends. She already knows that i certainly care about her because I've told her and I'm sure it's obvious I have some feelings for her. I (stupidly) believe that things might change over time/she will change her mind about it, and I (stupidly) said something to that effect 2 mins later and her response was it's entirely (or anything's) possible. I think if she felt really strongly about it she would have just said "no it won't". Later on in the night she was the one making the move to kiss me, and touch me...which adds to the possibility things will swing in my favor.
We both have issues we are working on correcting, which I think needs progress to be made on before gf/bf can seriously be in the picture. I think I'm a motivator for her, and I told her on saturday that she is a motivator for me (which is the truth) hoping it would boost her self esteem/know she is helping me.

But you've already gone past just being friends. Sounds to me like she wants to keep her options open. I'd continue doing what you've been doing and see where things go. At worst you stop being friends, but fact is, true friends don't have sex on a regular basis so you really wouldn't be losing a friend IMO.

And from I gather, this isn't someone Adam has known for years, only a couple of months. So it doesn't sound like a great friendship has had time to develop. They pretty much went straight into relationship/sex territory.
Is she dating other guys? If not, I see no real need to give the what you have a "title". Therefore, just keep going on as you are and try not to bring up the whole relationship thing as much as possible, because it may have adverse effects, and hopefully it works out for you.

I think you should just take it for what it is, sex.
IMO Having sex with someone before having an actual date doesn't seem like a good start to a romantic relationship. Maybe I'm old fashioned?

Is this someone you really see as girlfriend material? Sounds like you are more into her than she is you (no pun intended). I don't know why it couldn't develop into something more, I'm just not sure I'd want it to from the story you tell.

Maybe she doesn't want to give what you have a "title"... My experience, it adds unnecessary pressure/responsibility/obligation as opposed to being completely spontaneous/fun. At least this early into knowing her, why not keep going especially since it sounds like she does have feelings for you in return.
Just realized I spelled benefits wrong in the thread title...
can a mod fix that for ye 'ol search?
In general it looks like I'm getting the response here that I was hoping for and one that I got from one of my best friends last night while we were talking about stuff for hours. That response is that there is def. a chance, we already sort of have a relationship going, she wouldn't be say and doing certain things if she didn't care/wasn't interested at all...etc.
Thanks for the responses.

I think there is definately a chance.
Good luck. Keep us posted.
it looks like this relationship will go on.. I mean, if she's not going out with anybody but you, then I think there's a good chance that she is only into you. It seems like a really good start man, but I was wondering.. How did you feel about her BEFORE you guys started goin out?

her. If I didn't like her at all I wouldn't have hung out with her. If you are wondering if I started hanging out with her with the intention that I wanted her to be my GF...no that's not the case, didn't even consider that before.

No, actually I spelt benefits wrong in the thread title. I removed the F*k. I'll fix it.
