Anyone started a relationship from a one night stand?

I met a guy last night who I had an explosive one night stand with - really tried to hold out but I really couldn't.

This morning he asked where did I want to go from here with him and I mentioned possibly being fuck buddies, which he seemed happy enough with. However, I knew that I liked him a bit too much for that though and knew if I started that up, I might end up getting hurt, so I told his this just before I left. He said he understood, but he really liked me and would like to spend more time with me and that we had each other's numbers.

Now my intention was to not contact him unless he contacted me first, but I am gagging to text him and meet up again. He's got me feeling those butterflies and whilst I know how risky this is, as I'm just starting to properly get over a long term relationship and I know as lovely as he is, I would become addicted to him very quickly, and therefore things could end badly if I got hurt.

I suppose what I'd like to know is has anyone started a relationship from a one night stand that they didn't expect to go anywhere? I've had one night stands before and not felt like this, but I really did feel I connected with him, and he said the same (he said it first too, so he wasn't just making me feel better hopefully!) I think if he'd have felt like it was just sex for sex sake, he wouldn't have mentioned spending more time together? But then again, maybe he was just being polite...

Arghhhhhh! Any advice welcome!

Yes. It started off as what I intended to be a ons back in May 2013. We're still together. He just asked for my number. For a while we just fwb. We're now more serious and trying for a baby. We don't live together though which works for us.

Yes. My ONS was the result of a bet between two mates over a sausage sandwich as to who would get to go home with me. The one who won? We have 3 kids, been together 15 years, married for 4 :-) I never found out if he collected on the bet or not...

A relative of mine did. Married 27 years now. They have children and are happy together.

I more or less did with DH. Never apart since, married 6 years.

Yes - We are now married with 1 dc and have been together for 13 years.

ONS can develop into relationships. Yours has disaster written all over it. Too much analysis. Too much worry. He tells porkies, you sell yourself short suggesting fuck buddies when you think he is someone you would develop feelings for. Do you really think that going for a drink is more intimate and more likely to lead to you falling for someone than sharing body fluids?

Yep. I married him. We've been together 8 years and have a dd we adore.. and another due end of the year.

We were both drunk.. ons in which I had zero intention of seeing again.. even tho the sex was the best I'd ever had will never tell him for his head might explode

Yes! We will have been together for 12 years at the end of this year and married for 5! Our relationship is probs running its course now but that could have happened if i had met him and dated for some time first!
