    So looks like as he is now more into her, but doesn't want a relationship - what he's maybe looking/hoping for is her not to engage in any shennanigans with other lads - while allowing him to do his own thing? If so, been there when I was younger,at the time felt like giving him a clip around the ear! And that was the end of that friends with benefits scenario.
    Sorry, move to PI crossed my post. Hope he can have a think about he want's, run it by her and if they don't see eye to eye move on in good spirit.

    I advised him to quit while he's ahead,because someone will end up hurt

    If he doesn't want a relationship with her then he can't have fallen for her that much !!!

    Truth. This happens all the time and when it does, the person DOES want a relationship, against all the odds.

    Otherwise it's more about possession than falling for someone. If you really and truly "fall for" someone you'll move mountains and change your outlook to be with them.

    Sounds like he wants to have his cake and eat it. Probably hoping to block her from seeing other guys so he can maintain his cosy arrangement. He's either 'fallen' for her or not. If he has he'd want something more.
