What does he mean is he not attracted?

[Anonymous]

I said What you think I'm asking if you like me?

and he said I do like you, you haven't done me any wrong. I only want success for you and to be self sufficient.

in the terms when he says I do like you is it as a friend what does he mean?

His heart is not available, you trying to catch someone that doesn't want to be caught.

He likes you as a person and a friend, he also thinks you deserve a lot in life, but is not romantically attracted.

He also said, I genuinely did try to have a connection at the time. And yes I do play games in my alone time because I like being alone. I feel safe when I'm alone. I feel like nothing can hurt me when I'm alone. Being around people hurts now. Anything that isn't work and or video games now hurts. I don't want anything to do with the world anymore
He keeps dropping the ball on hangouts and when we used to hang out he’d show interest in me.

Need the WHOLE context because this isn't all of it.

Sounds like he friendzoned you. What ever the reason he doesn't want a relationship with you.

[Anonymous]

Seems more like a friend, like someone that cares about you but doesn’t see you as a girlfriend

I don't know what to do cause I want the attraction back, I don’t know if I like him anymore, maybe I should show less interest

Sometimes, when you show less interest, it does attract his attention because he’ll wonder what happened
