friends, lovers or more?

I have been friends with this guy for almost 15 years. (since 3rd grade) For the past3 months we have been talking every night, and we have even had sex on more than one occasion. Some of our mutual friends asked him if he is seeing anyone and he says no "I am single" We go out to movies and talk on the phone for hours, we text message each other every day. Neither of us can go 1 day with out calling the other. What does this mean.....should I push the issue of commitment or just enjoy the wonderful thing we have?

Please help

I'm sorry to say that it sounds like you're in an FWB or friends with benefit relationship. You're giving him a no-strings attached relationship. My advice is to stop. Let him go and get out before you get really hurt.


It's highly doubtful that this will turn into anything more than what it is.


Hope this helps.

That "wonderful thing we have" is what is typically referred to as: Friends With Benefits.
