AskMorena answered Saturday June 20 2009, 3:52 pm: Usually if a guy is a player he won't change just for one person. But in some cases there will be change. I personally lived one of those changes. So, i think you should get to know him as friends first. Hang-Out and stuff. Get to know things about yourselves. If you see a change and if you are starting to tell that he truly does want you and you want him then you should give him a shot. If not don't worry cause there's a whole world filled with hot guys :] [ AskMorena's advice column | Ask AskMorena A Question ]

That whole "You deserve better than me" shit... When a guy says that to me, I say "Yes, I deserve someone with a spine and a bit of self-respect". If he thinks he doesn't deserve you, that is huge red flag. Relationships are built on mutal affection and respect, not on guilt and one-upings.
It's a really lame co-op and excuse. Sometimes it's code for "I'm just not into you like that."
Anyways, hang out with him if you want too and get to know him better, but keep your eyes wide open. Watch out for the signs that he is really needy, insecure guy, and a guy who might chase after his 'needs' regardless of your feelings. [ Razhie's advice column | Ask Razhie A Question ]
JustJessOx answered Saturday June 20 2009, 1:47 pm: hey there,there is nothing wrong with befriending this guy and actually getting to know him
dont write him off because of rumors,he could actually be a great guy
just talk to him more as a friend dont go into it thinking what if i get with him and he screws me over?
take each day as it comes and dont over annaylise him or anything if im making sense?
just hang out with him and judge for your self after you get to know each other more you could start to devolop feelings for each other who knows,and if it comes to that tell him your fears of being screwed over and get some reassurance.
you wont really know what happens you just have to judge his character carefully if he does show signs of being the playerish type well then definately dont get involved with him as more then a friend.
hope i helped and made some sense! =]
good luck
<3
