You're better off just asking him Hunny.

Only he knows what's going on in his mind.

But it could be for several reasons, such as:

1. Not wanting the commitment of a serious relationship.

2. Wanting to have you as a girlfriend type figure, but wanting the option of seeing other girls.

3. Just not being ready for that title again.

4. Maybe he doesn't want to hurt his ex.

5. Maybe he was hurt by his ex and thinks that having a relationship under a different name might prevent this from happening again (I don't know why he'd think that... But Maybe:) )

6. He could want sex on tap as the other girls suggested

The list can go on and on... But you'll never know unless you ask him straight out. Tell him that you do not understand that philosophy of this arrangement so you couldn't possibly say yes if you had no idea what you were agreeing to.

Because he just want casual sex with out commitment and without putting any effort.

It's probably nothing personal, he may just have been messed up by his Ex.

For your own sanity, please tell him that you like him but want an boyfriend and then walk away from this guy.

You'll only get hurt if you stay and fall for him. Don't stay thinking you'll win him over, men don't change if they don't have to. He may come after you when he's realised what he's losing, but he may not. It's his loss.

Good Luck!! xx
