I mean who wants to befriend someone they might fall in love with but can't have? Not me, unrequited love is one of the most painful things you'll ever experience, best not to try and develop that in my opinion.

 When you feel that you can't be either or... don't try. It is too bad that you don't want to loose friendship, but it is not your fault. He is the one who doesn't keep within his boundaries. Too bad. Find friends who know how to respect the friendship. Don't accept friends who only use friendship as an excuse to get in your pants.
That is just my policy. Zero tolerance. If he can not be your friend 100%, don't let him be your friend 50% and an embarrassing stalker the other 50%.
