What does it mean if a guy likes you but doesnt want to date?

If a person tells you that they dont want a relationship but they still like you, this is an indication that youre chasing someone who is emotionally unavailable. Before jumping into something new, whether its casual or serious — and even before your very first date with a new person!

How do you know when a guy doesnt want to be with you?

One of the clear signs that hes not interested in having a relationship with you is that hes distracted and disengaged when youre together. If his mind is elsewhere, hes checking out mentally, and he doesnt seem present, hes actually presenting you with clear evidence that youre not of much importance to him.
