He says he is very confused at the minute and spends 50% of the time tihnking i want to go out with her and 50% saying I should still be single for a bit longerSoo..I just wanted to know how I keep it at the level of 'potential' girlfriend, without getting too close so if he does turn round and say just friends I won't get hurt.. but also being close enough to let him know im interested still.

Just tell him that you are interested but you are willing to give him a bit of space.Don't be always the first to make contact with him and see if he looks for you, but make sure you don't distance yourself too much or he'll thing you have gone off him.It may take him a couple of months to sort himself out, if after that long he still isn't sure, I would give up.There is no guarantee you won't get hurt, just be careful and the only thing you can do is to try and keep your options open, till he has made up his mind.Good luck
