Generally they are great in the beginning. BUT, eventually (like you) someone ALWAYS wants more. Someone gets attached and the other person runs/pulls back.
 
They ALWAYS end WEIRD!! ALWAYS. I don't know a FWB that ends well.

Yup.  I've only had one.  We did the push-pull dance for over a year.  (Not calling really does work, on both sides.)  I think it's over now (I asked him not to call me anymore), but I wouldn't be surprised to hear from him again.
 
What do men think about FwB?  Well, what do YOU -- a woman -- think about it?  Someone you don't really want a relationship with, you don't really want to meet to many of your friends or family, if any.  Who you don't really open yourself up to.  It serves a purpose for a limited time, but it's probably not very healthy long term.  You've got to ask yourself not how/why it started, but if it's still serving your needs.  Your needs may have changed since the arrangement began.
 
It's a stupid expression, anyway.  Friends with benefits would really be FRIENDS, and FRIENDSHIP is a RELATIONSHIP.
 
Lose this guy.  It sounds like you are hurt already.
