That may be true. I don't know everything. If he doesn't want to be more than friends that is just fine. At this point just let things play out. You 2 are not dating so you are free to date other men just like he is free to date other women. It is just fine to have some interest in him at this point. Just don't let it get to be too much because if he doesn't feel the same as you do it will really hurt you.
