hannah76 agony auntWell, his text asking about a boyfriend leans me towards believing that he is sounding things out for more. He is probably interested and is finding out if you are available. In these situations it is best to be honest. If he asks you to be his girlfriend possibly just say you are not looking for a relationship at this time. If he persists then I'm afraid you will have to pull away from hanging out. From the point of view that he hasn't said anything yet, and bare in mind he may not be wanting a relationship, it's not a good idea to say anything. Afterall, he may not want more. In any case, hang out with him for now but if things get uncomfortable you will have to pull away I'm afraid.
