Dating

Guy who I didn’t exactly date is still reaching out?

I’ve been talking to this guy for about a year and we’d act like we’re dating (intimacy, talking all the time, having real conversations). We would mainly communicate through Snapchat (even after it became an “ldr”) but that’s another conversation 💀 after he brought up hints about wanting to meet my family, I wanted to know where we were, relationship wise. He says he’s not ready to have something serious. I needed space from him, but he’s messaged me multiple times after I started taking space, like a day or two after the talk. It’s weird because I miss talking to him everyday and want to message/call back, but I’m not sure if I should. Should I be open to a friendship?
