He has just gotten out of a relationship for a few weeks now, and I was the first person to message him to hang out. We go hiking often and we text every day, and we got to talking about sex and it turned him on. My parents are going away on vacation which is the perfect time for him to come over, but I don't want to be put in the situation where we have sex and he only wants to enjoy the single life while I want to be in a relationship with him. Don't get me wrong, he's an amazing guy. He's funny, he's polite, he treats me to meals and pays the bill...he's a full-on gentleman.
But if we have sex I don't want it to be a one-time thing. I really don't know what to do. I want sex, but I want the whole relationship package and it seems every time I see him he's either in a relationship or single and loving it.
What do I do?

So get that on the table from the get go. Tell him what it is you expect with regards to sex. Say no to sex if he wants just sex without strings. I am one that does not think that sex can be easily disconnected from an intimate relationship in the first place, so I do understand your perspective. I do realize there are a few that can have sex unattached, I'm just saying it's not easy to do and for me not desireable. @others please understand I am not judging except from my own personal standpoint and what's right for me.
Back to the point, just get it out in the open that you don't want sex unless he wants more with you and then stand firm on it. If he continues to pursue the sex without a relationship I would completely move on as he will just be a thorn in your side at that point.
