Because you don't want someone else to play with your toy even if you are not playing with it.
You are probably torn between a guy you know should be a good partner but who just doesn't do it for you. But it is one thing to not want to date him, it is something else all together for him to no longer want to date you.
It is human nature to want what others have.
