Friends with benefits - I want more but how to say???

Question - (11 January 2009) 1 Answers - (Newest, 1 May 2009)
A female United States age 36-40, anonymous writes:

Any guys out there, I need your help. If you were in a friends with benefits situation with a girl, and you both treat each other with a great amount of respect and get along great, and both are very attracted to one another, what would be a good way to break it to them that you are looking for something more (not necessarily with them, but if it was with them then that would be great for the qualities listed above)? Or is there really no way to break something like that to a friend with benefits? Would love to hear what you guys's takes are on this...

A reader, anonymous, writes (1 May 2009):

It's simple. You can ask him how he feels about you. A straight aproach is usually the best. You can also tell him that you would like a more meaningful relationship, something more than FWB. You are not pushing him by having this conversation, you are only informing him. You probably agreed with the rules in the very beginning but the situation has changed as it often happens. You have to renegotiate your stand in this story. If he doesn't agree to take it to another level you can either continue on this path until both of you can find more suitable partners or choose to move on. Most times it is not indicated to carry on in a one sided relationship, having emotional needs that are disregarded can do you much harm. Are you really prepared for this?
