What does it mean when a guy says “I think we’ll value our friendship?”?

[Anonymous]

So met this guy on dating app. Went few dates but didn’t end up well. But still wants us to be friends. I didn’t want that at first cause it’ll be awkward but he keeps insisting on it. Telling me to think about the future of our “friendship.”
I have no idea what this means.
FYI there’s a 10 year difference between us.

Guy who thinks you can be "just friends"... is likely not your friend

Elaborate?

someone want to explain the "friend zone" stuff to her. I'm tired of trying to.

Basically, there's NO SUCH THING AS THE FRIEND ZONE

It means he doesn't want to have sex with you.
