Went on a few dates with a great guy, but...

"I'd like us to be friends."

"Hey! I just want to tell you I have had a great time on our dates and I really like you as a friend and would love to continue our friendship but I don't want to lead you on that it will lead to anywhere else"

I kinda think that chemistry/spark is a two way street and the ideal situation would be when both people are honest with themselves and each other.

If it don't ...don't force it...just relax an let it go. Just because that's the way you want it.,.. doesn't mean it will be so...

So it went well. I was sure he was more into me but apparently we were on the same page. He didn't want to be the first to say it
