Crystal, I think you should just talk to him about it. This is a weird kind of relationship-ish limbo to be in, and I think backing off and just being friends isn't honest.
You have a lot of mutual friends, right? Does anybody know anything about his romantic past?

If he won't give you a straight answer, don't let him pay for things. Be upfront again and don't let him give a gray answer.
Stirfry, you're on fire! Every comment you've posted is awesome!

Thanks guys, I really like this forum.
I will try to bring it up again soon. I need to move on if he wants to be friends only. It's not fair for me to stay in this situation.
Gosh, I must admit that I was once in this guy's shoes. After the break-up, I moved on alright, but never really got over her which made it extremely difficult to commit. I also made the opposite sex filled with so much anger towards me because of it, and there wasn't much I could do about it. I dated, but making a commitment was the one thing that I couldn't do. Every that hair that I ruffled, every cheek I caressed, every hand I held, every cheek and/or lip that I kissed; I saw her. This was the pain that I went through for 3 1/2 years to be exact. *sigh*
I think we just need to meet a right person at right time.
Acturally, after our conversation about my mom's friends want to set me up with guys, he changed. I think he cares.
Anyway, I will talk with him sometime soon and see.
Again, thanks to all !!
it sounds like he loves you but is to terrified of you at same time. he thinks that if he makes the first move then it will ruin the whole friendship thing beyod repair, but if you ame the first move then it is he who is reacting as opposed to attacking and that to some people is the epotime of joy. strange but some of us think like that.
either way it is obviouse that he lovesy you.
He finally made his move. =)
Hooray for happy endings!!
Details? C'mon... don't leave us hanging.

awwwww, you didn't jump him?
hehe... I just told him that my mom's friends are busying introducing guys to me, and I've met one in person and talked with another one on the phone. After that, he changed his attitute.
I think he is really shy, although he didn't agree with that. So far so good, you and me became WE and US, which is pretty sweet.
Well, I didn't jump him. I am shy too. heehee.... =)
