You start dating a female, you're attracted to each other, you become friends with benefits occasionally, the 2 of you communicate well, even though there are some dissagreements, the 2 of you are able and desire to reconnect several times and over months you grow closer as you continue to learn more about each other. There are many things you like about her. You continue to search online, communicate with some other females but rarely go out with anyone else but your close friend. She falls in love with you after 6 months but you are not sure and maybe you don't have those very strong feelings......is it possible you will fall in love with this friend as time goes by? Perhaps some months later? Or will your feelings never grow any stronger than they are at 6 months??

I think being friends in the main ingredient here because both parties will build up a lot more trust and respect in one another where a more serious relationship could happen. Whether or not it will have a time limit on it is a different thing. I know some of my former girlfriends and I were friends for quite awhile before we got serious. And the thing is nothing really developed beyond the "lovey dovey" stage. We were just really committed to one another without the attachments. We knew that we would be available for one another, in good and bad times; that we would be there for hugs and kisses if needed; and to have shoulders to cry on or for moral support. I think that's more important then trying to label a friendship. Just enjoy the moments you have, and relax. If things develop any further, that's awesome. If not, at least you'll still be friends. It's a win-win situation, so it seems.

Its VERY possible that your feelings will change. Emotions do not understand lengths of time. Right now you may be at a point in your life where the feelings will not grow, however, as time passes, as does your life, its entirely possible you will fall in love. This is not something humans can help, it simply happens. Even though falling in love is never a definite yes or no answer, the possibility of falling in love is ALWAYS there. Good luck!

Well start acting like a couple and go out for few dates and see how that goes. you'll know within those first couple of dates whether or not you want to continue the relationship or not. And yeah be truthful to yourself and your friend.

cut out the f u c k i n and be just friends. act like just friends talk about dating others...this may backfire but its really the only step because either way u need to know where he stands. more than likely though he gets cut off and then he will be interested and start to desire you for you as well as u body

hmm never had a friend with bennefit. poor me. anyways my friend did and he is in love with her and she doesn't feel the same about him. she feels that they can only be friends. it's been like 2 years and she hasn't changed her feelings for him. but they were in the exact situation that you are in now. only the guy is chasing the girl. but maybe for your friend it will take time for him to realize how he actually feels about you and maybe he will never really feel about you how you do about him. it's hard to tell.

Could happen. Sometimes just knowing one is loved is enough. If he's not trusting of relationships it could take longer. No guarantees tho.

If he is still searching then something is missing and he is not likely to stick with you.
