Search Results: how to act on a first date relationships

Reasons he says we could never date:
1. We just recently met and he lives like 10 hours away from me
2. He thinks we would move too quickly physically and both get hurt
3. He says he has a hard time feeling connected to people and doesn't want to end up hurting me
Because of this he requested that I friend zone him and asked me how he can act like a friend without leading me on (He's not doing a great job of acting like a friend)
Reasons I think he just wants to get to know me better first:
1. We just recently met and already hit it off super well
2. He is really flirty
3. He is always always texting me (mentioned he texts me more than anyone else)

12. He said he wants to become really good friends because he feels like I need him
13. He admitted to me that he has no other girls that he's friends with
14. He always says goodnight to me, always texts me in the morning and sometimes tells me to text him something while he's asleep so he can read it when he wakes up
