I appreciate your sincerity and yes I am attached to this man. I've known him for about 4 months and finally I'm there but unsure of his real feelings. I know he likes me but .... maybe not enough.

A "fuck buddy"...now that is indeed sex only. Come in, get naked, fuck, leave.
THere are no clear definitions on any of these tho.

 They mean the same thing, in my opinion. 'Lover' is just a sugarcoated term for a friend with benefits. It'd be safe to assume it's temporary and not going anywhere.

 Considering you analyzed his choice of words, and thought on them enough to come here, I think it's safe to say you are attached to this man...... and unfortunately I doubt it's as intense with him. Friends with benefits sounds so dirty and sleazy.. lover sounds romantic. But they mean the same thing (at least in my dictionary).Be careful with yourself, Miss Anonymous. I hope everything turns out okay.

 It means that he is in it for the sex. If you were his girlfriend, it would be for a relationship. Lover = friends with benefits... that's what I think. If you're not sure, ask him.
