Where does the line cross between being a bang buddy and dating?
I've been hanging out with this guy for quite some time now. We talk to each other or hang out every single day. We've taken little trips and yes, we do sleep together. Still, he considers me only a 'Friend.' We've talked briefly about dating, and I think he won't date me because I'm not in college at the moment, and the big one, I cheated on my last boyfriend. But the relationship with him and my ex are so different, even thinking about cheating on this guy is out of the question. Anyway, my question should I be the typical girl and ask him what we are, or should I just not worry about it and enjoy this ride?

You may have already crossed the line and int hat case you should discuss it with him, if your feelings towards him are more then just friends then you need to let him know where you stand and find out where he stands ... first off you must realize your not in a relationship with this guy so there is no cheating on him currently and he cannot cheat on you either because there is no commitment .. but if that's what you want from him .. you must let him know and more then that if you wish to remain friends after wards you must respect his choice in it .. that may end the sex with you and him because your not on the same level but that's a risk you have to take

Bang buddy and dating...there is no line crossing....well there isn't suppose to be...once two people start spending time with each other and getting to know one another on a more personal level...wanting to be in a relationship with that person is just bound to happen...if you are getting feelings for this guy you should just come out and ask him...however that could possibly end whatever it is you two are doing at the moment...maybe you should just let it ride itself out...see what happens! Just don't be disappointed if it doesn't have the outcome you are hoping for.

Your getting the short end of the stick as a chick, you know this right. Women try too hard to be like men, you by asking this question prove my point that its more than sex to you.
Men can go out and bang anyone anywhere and not think anything of not ever seeing or talking to that chick again, women just can't do that, they say they can but they will have the battle scars later in life.

As long as you enjoy it, fine. When you want to cross into something else is when you're going to have a problem. Realize too that since he says you're just friends that he can find someone else that he wants to date and still have you on the side. I think I would ask him where you stand and if it's ever going to change, if not, enjoy the ride until you find someone else.

You are both in denial...lol...You are in a relationship now! Maybe you should break the routine for a while and see how you feel. If you miss him in a "relationship" sort of way, then you have your answer. If not, continue with what you have. Just keep in mind that having a "Friend with benefits" can actually harm you emotionally in the long run. In any case, talk about it with him.

Ugh...this is so obvious it hurts.
He's in college, you are not. He wants to be able to run around college with his pants around his ankles screaming "I'm single!". Then every time he comes home, or hangs out with you away from campus, he gets some. And I'll raise the age-old question of:
Why buy the cow when you get the milk for free?
Stop sleeping with him and see how often he hangs out with you. That should decide whether or not he wants to be your boyfriend or not.

I'd just enjoy the ride... It nearly sounds like dating to me without the exclusivity. You're still free to find a guy, and he's still free as well, meanwhile, you're both getting the benefits of having the opposite sex as friends, and in the bedroom too!

You can just start by becoming to busy to be around him everyday, make a date with some guy, if he ask you what's up, just say that you wanted to date him, but he did not act like he wanted you bad enough. He may change his point of view, because you are no so easy anymore.

He's been pretty obvious about it. He has no respect for you, but he likes some qualities about you (mostly you on your back).
He sounds like a complete jerk.
Find yourself a new guy, and this time, don't be so rushed to get in the sack before you have a relationship.

If you are currently enjoying the ride and are unsure of any sudden changes of venue then just hop on and enjoy the ride for a while and see where it leads you
