What's the difference between being in a relationship with someone vs just being really really good friends? Is there a difference?
You can leave an optional "tip" with Mahalo's virtual currency, Mahalo Dollars. If you are asking a difficult question that might require some research, or if you'd like a wide variety of feedback, a higher tip often leads to more answers to your question.

M$Being really good friends typically excludes certain "benefits" or activities that people "in a relationship" do. Like deep kissing or intimate touching or sex.
"Friends with benefits" is a cross between the two, generally with the understanding it is NOT exclusive. Just a matter of mutual desire, convenience and timing. Also it is usually observed by individuals who are not "in a relationship" or who are "just really good friends".
Even with all that being narrowed down, I agree with drmatt. Whatever you call it, a relationship is just that. I have a relationship with you right now, albeit a passing, text based, one time thing, "without benefits". :)

M$My best friend and I have a fantastic relationship - but not the same kind I have with my wife. Also, I have a relationship with HER best friend, but not in the same way.
You're in a relationship with someone if you invest time and effort into caring for that person. That doesn't necissarily mean you're in LOVE with the person, but a relationship still means you're close to the person.
Now, that's not to say one person in the relationship may be in love witht he other (not me and my best bro, but I think you see my point). In fact, that's how my wife and I got together: we were very good friends, and then it became more. Don't fight the feeling if you've got it.
Hope that is clear as mud...? Best wishes!
