Reply To: Why does he say he just wants to be friends but doesn’t act that way?

Yea I figured this much, thanks for the reply. I’m not even really interested in dating him, not right now at least, but I’d just like things to be totally platonic if that’s all he says he wants. I consider him a close friend but I don’t think as close as he sees me- I have a few girl friends I know I will always be much closer to than any guy which I think was sort of surprising to him when we originally met. Your sisters experience is basically what I fear but somewhat expect, so I’ll try to distance myself as much as possible. That’s why I tried setting boundaries as much and as soon as possible, but I guess that’s all I can really do besides not being friends at all.
