It really depends. You need to ask you're friend what they feel about the situation, what they feel about relationships and etc. If you have feelings for this person, you need to find out if they have them back. They may only be in it for the sex, but you need to find out soon. If you wait, you may get more attatched and if they are only in it for benefits, it can really hurt you in the end. I do suggest you break off the benefits thing if you have feelings for them and they don't have them back though.
I'm not going to say it isn't possible to turn it into a relationship, because I was in the same thing. Me and my best friend somehow got into this friend with benefits thing and one say i was like:
"so you'd never ask me out right? we're best friends." and he replied, "i don't know." by the end of that conversation he asked me out. So it isn't necessarily impossible for you.
Hope this helps. =)

There are a lot of things which depends on that to be honest. For instance, if you could really imagine yourself in a relationship with this person in the first place. However, I think that you really do need to think about your friend's feelings more than your own. I mean, you already know how you're feeling about this person, and I'm quite sure that you know exactly where you want to go with this person. So, my response to you is this. The chances of your current predicament turning into an actual relationship depends on whether your friend is the type to get him/herself into a relationship b/c some people aren't really the dating type. And there are some who are simply satisfied with the way things are, especially if they're those layed-back go-with-the flow-type. However, you never really know what a person is going to do until you're willing to state what and how you're feeling to those that you love. Pondering your chances, while it's smart and understandable, is merely a waste of precious time that could be ticking away the time with your possible significant other.
