He likes me more than i like him.
I've been in a relationship with, who i consider is my best friend, for 7 months. I really do love him , a lot. We've had sex, and for him, it brought him closer to me. But for me, i feel like nothing has changed. I love being with him, and we get a long so well, and to everyone else, everything seems perfect.He says he'd like to be with me forever and all kinds of cutesy stuff about our relationship. He's so in love with me, he tells me all the time..I love him, but im not IN love with him. as far as he knows, everything is perfect. I've been so fake to him, which is so wrong. I don't want to be without him, but i don't want to be with him either. We've tried being "just friends", and we just ended up going back out because i thought that was what i wanted. I absolutely can not break up with him now. I don't want to leave him, i like being in a relationship with him, but i also want to be with other people. I'm so conflicted.Help?

Maybe give some free advice about: Love Life?
If you really cared for him you wouldn't string him along and let him believe he has a future with you when we both know, at least in the short term, that he doesn't have a chance in hell of that. And you don't seem to be telling him any differently.
You've given your relationship with him several attempts. It's clear to you now that for now you don't want a romantic relationship with him neither do you seem ready to settle down or be in a committed relationship at this point in life.
There is absolutely nothing wrong with that but you have to be brutally honest with the other person who has their heart in this relationship.
I think you need to tell him exactly what you've said here. That you love him, he and your relationship together are extremely important to you and you don't want to lose that but you owe it to HIM to be honest with him about how you feel.
The reality is you MAY lose him or he may need space. But you're doing this for his benefit and not your own. What you do is entirely up to you but you have to take into consideration the feelings and thoughts of the man you claim to love. And we do these things for the people we love because it's in their best interests. Even if it does hurt us.
