It is nearly impossible to make love to someone and not build up felings for them. The only option is to shut down your feelings, and then all you are doing is having sex, and I don't think that is what you want. We all feel, that is why when we are with someone we love, we love every part of them, not just their bodies.
Chemitry is a funny thing, you should wait until you find both the chemistry and the love for who the person is before you have a sexual relationship. [ greeneyes8993's advice column | Ask greeneyes8993 A Question ]

so anyway, i think that you should decide if you like him at ALL mentally. if not then, no, absolutely not friends with benefits. im sorry, i just think that that's not the right move. chances are if you agreed to something like that, you, being the girl, will become VERY emotionally attached to being with him and when it all ends again, you will regret it. you need to find someone that you like both physically and mentally. also, this all depends on how old you are. if you are still in high school, then that is exactly what i think about the matter. However, if you happen to be already graduated from high school and feel mature enough to handle it then i suppose it is really up to the both of you but i still would not do it in my opinion...hope that i helped you!
