The more and more I see them feelings develop a bit, but to be completely honest if I ever had that strong a feeling for a lady I'd ask for the relationship straight off instead of casual sex

FB, FWB, and whatever else involves on-going casual sex with a specific person also qualifies as a "relationship". The only type of "no strings attached" contact I can think of is a one-time one-night stand. But, as you can easily see from the replies here, there doesn't seem to be a one-size fits all definition of a FB, FWB, etc. relationship.

But it seems pretty clear that going into such a relationship with an expectation of a romantic attachment isn't a good idea.

As others said, an FWB arrangement can turn into something more but it's rare.

With that being said .I have been involved in fwb when i was younger with a guy that i liked.I was naive thinking that sleeping with will make him like me . I thought over time he will change his mind, but it never happened.

It was more like booty call were he would call me after midnight to come over.Sometimes he would spend the night then I don't hear from him until he wants to screw.

It resulted in resentment and feeling used.That's when I decided to end it

I only had one such arrangement, and no "I love you" s were exchanged. We liked each other enough that we initially did date for a couple of months, but the love part was in the non-romantic sense.

Not usually. But I have caught feelings from casual sex. If it's there, then it'll be there. If it's not, then it won't. At times when I thought that I was in control (feelings wise), life sometimes taught me that, nope, I'm not. Simply put, I would get feelings when I didn't want to.

I've had FWB arrangements evolve into LTR's on two occasions.

Both times it just started off as really great physical chemistry together & then the more we got to talking, hanging out and spending time outside the bedroom, something more grew out of it. It does happen but is rare & I think both both individuals have to be open to more in the first place.

Yes, of course, as I love my friends.

Sorry, I'm not a man... and I've only been in a couple of FWB-type relationships where the intent was obvious. But if the guy told me he loved me, I'd either be upset he was playing with my emotions or weirded out...

I love and cherish my friends, but it is a different type of love.

Saying I love you would be a deal breaker for me. I am out!
