What does a guy mean when he says I don’t want to loose you even as a friend?

Does this mean he wants to be friends with benefits or what?

It really depends on the context. What was this about exactly? What is your relationship to this guy (stranger, friend, acquaintance)_ What was the conversation within which this was said?

If you were already friends with benefits then perhaps but I would expect that it was not this. Guys seldom say this to male friends though but because you're a woman he's trying to keep you around perhaps for something else in the future.
