I don't understand if this guy really wants to be friends or if he likes me. He told me before about a girl that he was interested in and was texting. But he's had bad experiences with past relationships, so he's really picky/hesitant about relationships. I told him that I liked him in the past but he was too concerned about whether I would fit into his family. In spite of all that, we've gotten really close and hang out 24/7 to the point where other people think we are dating. He always invites me over to his place and he's completely comfortable changing clothes or "getting ready" in front of me. We have deep long conversations and during our talks, he constantly tells me that he's never told anyone this before or he's never shown anyone this before, which makes me feel really special. He always compliments me and before falling asleep, he stared at me and told me that he loved me. Later, I had to leave town for an extended period and he ended his plans just to spend a few hours with me to say goodbye. He recently also told me that I was the only one he was hanging out with compared to his other friends and roommates.
