Alex is your guy friend that you have a crush on and he has a crush on you too but he just broke up with his ex gf a week ago and he wants to get over her. He’s already admitted to liking you, but these days, he’s been hanging out with another girl. And he told you that she’s just a fuck buddy and a friend, there are no feelings there, and that he doesn't want to be in a relationship anytime soon. He said he still likes you a lot, more than the fuckbuddy, but he shouldn’t date anyone right now. And he told you he wants to keep you around but that wouldn’t be fair of him to so he told you to date around with other people.
