Please allow me to give you some advice. Do NOT go out with people you don't like. If you do, you are saying to them, and to everyone who sees you with them, subliminally, that you LIKE them. That's lying.

Don't lie. Be straight. Be upfront. If you are looking for someone who just wants to hang out, say so.

Now you have to fix the mess you made...but you HAVE to fix it.

Sounds like you want a friend with benefits. Make sure the other person involved knows this and wants the same. Sometimes people become emotionally involved and it would be sad to intentionally hurt someone. It's best to be open so everyone knows where they stand. All the best!

I agree with what Sutten said. If you just want a fwb, you have to be up front about it so nobody gets hurt, including yourself.

Just tell him what you told us. Communication is key in any type of relationship.

Its ok maybe he doesn't like you either

You just want to use him but don't like him? That's not very nice..

So you want to use him when you need him, and then he should disappear? He should drop you like a hot rock.
