Why would a man friendzone you after sex?

So I had sex with someone I was attracted too we used to go way back 16 years ago… he came back into my life recently… we talked everyday for few weeks and it seemed he was somewhat interested in me and then we hooked up and then he started acting distant, super distant texting less and flirting less like as if he lost interest

and when i expressed my concerns and why he became distant he texted me this:


Good Morning

Sorry for being distant and stuff. But I really felt like what happened that day shouldn’t had happened. You’re a very nice person and nothing personal. But my mindset right now isn’t to do anything with anybody. My mind really is on making $$ and providing everything for my child but my friendship will 100% be available for you 🧡
