Booty calls are all fun and games until feelings arise and you find yourself in that dreaded grey area. When this happens, rather than launch straight into how to turn him into a boyfriend, the most important thing to do is value yourself above all else.
No matter which way your situation goes, your top priority is to be treated like the queen you are.
It started off all casual and fun, but slowly, those late night sessions made you catch feelings for your booty call. Don’t worry, we’ve all been there…and it totally sucks. You’re stuck in that annoying grey area of relationships, and it’s seriously playing games with your head.

You’ve already come to the conclusion that you want to make things official, but you’re afraid of rejection, and you don’t even know if he feels the same way about you. Well, there’s no time like the present to take control of the situation and turn your romp in the sheets into a full-blown relationship.
Women every day are converting their booty calls into their boos, and you can, too!
Keep reading to see this list of ways you can get your casual fling to make you his girlfriend.
Be honest
A relationship built on lies is bound to fail. If you really want your booty call to think of you as a girlfriend, you have to start the situation off on the right foot. Be as truthful as possible when he asks you questions about your past.
If you’d rather not tell him the truth, just let him know you don’t feel comfortable talking about the issue at that time, but you are open to discussing it later.
This way, you can make sure he is really in for the long haul before spilling all you deep, dark secrets.
Don’t play games
Okay, you can play some games. But we are talking about games where you leave your Tinder open on your phone so he knows you are not exclusive- don’t do that shit. If you act like he’s a fuff-boy, he will gladly accept his fu**boy role. Aren’t men just the greatest??
Just because he hasn’t had the exclusive talk yet doesn’t mean you need to shove it in his face that you’re dating other people. You can say yes to other dates if you want to say yes to them, but don’t go out of your way to prove a point.
Petty games lead to a petty relationship, but most often, no relationship at all.
Show him you appreciate him
If you want to move into the ‘girlfriend territory,’ you have to start acting like one…sort of. Of course, you don’t want to lay it heavy the next time he stops by your place, but you can subtly let him know you appreciate him.
Thank him for driving out of his way to come see you, or give him a huge hug when he brings over your favorite bottle of wine without you having to ask. He will look forward to the praise and will continue trying to make you happy.
Soon enough, he will realize you mean more to him than just a regular booty call.

Show him your worth
Understand that you are the pride, girlfriend! Make him work for you by showing him your worth. Keep your dignity and your pride intact and he will know that he needs to step it up if he wants to keep you around.
Feel free to ignore his text messages sometimes, and no matter how hot in the pants you get, decline his advances every now and then. He will start to see you as being different, special, and more than just a good time in the bedroom.
Don’t offer to meet up unless he asks you
If you’re already out having a chill night with your friends and he hits you up, don’t invite him to come through unless he asks you to hang out. Unless you’re at the coolest party ever and you think he should be there, you should communicate that you’re chill enough to have your own life outside of a relationship/your booty call.
He’s obviously interested in you if you’re hooking up, but most guys are afraid of relationships only because they don’t want to uproot their life just for another person.
Never nag him about your situations
Nagging never got anyone anywhere, just ask your single friends. They’ll all tell you their relationships went in a downward spiral the second they began to nag their significant other. If you’re unhappy with your current booty call status, pestering your guy is the quickest way to get the boot (and to get blocked from his phone…forever.)
Instead, keep calm, and never let on that you’re bothered by the situation.
Get a life
If you are too caught up in your booty call to actually date other guys, find something else to do keep you occupied. Spend some extra time perfecting your craft, or take up a new hobby. The time between your dates with your booty call will fly by if you keep busy and it will also give the two of you something to talk about the next time you meet up.
Do it slowly, in terms of what you’re comfortable sharing and how willing he is to go there with you, with both emotions and activities.
At the end of the day, if you’re doing all of the above, you’re giving him every chance.
If it’s obvious he wants to keep his ‘booty call’ status and isn’t interested in more, it’s time to take your fabulous booty elsewhere.
Look forward to the adventure and you’ll soon see how valuing yourself, above all else, leads you to the relationship you deserve.
