Because men can be very foolish. If she rejects you, being her "friend" will only make her have contempt for you.

  What do you mean contempt?

  Meaning you are seen as a simp who is parked in the friend zone.

  No it means he is a friend that I don’t have feelings for

  Yes, I understand. He wants sex with you and probably a relationship, but that won't happen, so he is a simp.

  Is he a simp because he won’t walk away?

  Why girls don’t end it if they know this or are they too oblivious to what the guy is doing?

  I don’t think it is attention. Maybe they feel sorry for the guy or really care about him

  For the most part, they're oblivious.
  Guys wanna be friends for this reason; which plays to most girls. They want to be "friends' because they can't stand the thought of someone not liking them. The need to know they're good. So... friends it is. Friends are good

  This is clearly the case on his part. I want to be friends but clearly he can’t because he wants a relationship

  Exactly. I think it's best to go your separate ways
