from my standpoint, i am having fun being single since it does not tie me down. also, i am always terrified of being involved with someone that is in your circle of friends or work-related area. when relationships turn sour in that situation, there is always tension and uneasiness.
he is also not wanting commitment and wants to put work and play above everything else. i understand this completely.
we both like each other, have fun with friends, don't want to date, and have fun with each other.
he will talk to me, make sure we see each other, offer to help out with things, tells me he likes me a lot, loves kissing me, and doesn't want me to back off. he opens up to me and tells me things he usually keeps inside, and likewise, i do the same.
i guess i am confused because it seems we do everything that couples do--except go on dates. what do boys want in this? is this just rebound loneliness?

He is not using you - he is being very honest about boundaries and you are trying to ignore what he said and read into other things because you want more. If you decide to keep hooking up with him just accept that you are settling for less than you want rather than telling yourself you don't want a relationship.
