 In the new flick, Friends with Benefits, Justin Timberlake and Mila Kunis agree to just hook up with each other and not let romance get in the way of a good time.

Of course putting two such ridiculously good-looking people in bed together leads to complications (I mean, how would you NOT start obsessing over JT 24/7?). Here’s a list of six other activities you can do with your FWB that will more than likely change your relationship status from late night booty call to full-on gf/bf. 

 

6. Play With Each Other

If you and your FWB whip out a chess board and start challenging each other right after a make-out sesh, you might be in it for the long haul. Healthy competition is good for any relationship and playing board (not mind) games helps you build bonds with the other person. So remember if he whips out a deck of cards post-hook-up, he might have more than just sex on the brain. 

 

5. Hold Hands

The key to most  FWB relationships is that they are kept on the DL. If you find yourself reaching for his hand IN PUBLIC and he grabs back then the two of you might just be a little more into each other than you thought. 

 

4. Try Something extreme

If you’re willing to take the plunge and trust each other enough to share a single parachute while jumping out of a plane together,  then becoming a couple doesn’t seem so scary. 

 

3. Meet The Parents

Meeting the parents for brunch after a late-night hook-up can lead to awkward conversations about your futures, but you’ll probably score free pancakes out of it. If you’re Facebook friends with his mom and find yourself calling her to chat then you have definitely moved beyond just a fun fling. 

 

2. Sew A Quilt Together

It’s great to have a hobby but if you’re making special sheets that you plan on getting tangled in later, you have a whole different level of seriousness on the brain. 

 

1. Bang
