We texted each other occasionally over the summer, but now he will not stop texting me. At least three or four times a day he'll text me. Sometimes I answer and sometimes I ignore him. I do think he's nice and want to be friends with him, but he just doesn't get that. He'll constantly compliment me and call me baby, honey, etc, and he always asks me whether or not I've been talking to any guys. It's not just flirting, he really seems to think that I'm interested in him. Even if he didn't live twelve hours away, he's just not my type.I don't know what to do. Obviously I'm most likely never going to see him again. I want to just ignore his texts, and I have tried for a few days, but I always end up feeling guilty and answer him eventually. I wouldn't mind texting him occasionally if I could have a normal conversation with him like a friend. What should I do?

Ignore him all together...or come out right and tell him that you're not interested in him in that way, you want to be just friends.

Block him.It's getting creepy for just a one time meeting and he clearly wants more than just a casual friendship like you want.

I think you should tell him, in a nice way, that you'd like to be friends with him but you're not looking for a romantic relationship.
Some people don't get the hint till you tell them straight that you're not interested, just make sure you say it in a nice way.
