He said that we couldn't be in a relationship because I can't handle it ( I think he is still chasing other girls and barely has interest in me except sex)

 

He said we could be friends so we won't fight, and we can still hang out, cook together and have sex

I said no, if you don't think I am good enough for a relationship I will not be your FWB. I told him I love him and asked him to delete my number.

He said he still cares about me and will not delete my number, he also said that he will be always there for me when I need to talk to him. But I just think that he is only interested in the sex...

 

I am confused...Does he really care about me or just want to be the friends with benefits? Thanks.

Nah, he just wants sex. Everything else is just the sexual drive talking.

Yes so my gut feeling is right. if he was really interested I could feel it but I couldn't. He is acting different than before now

He probably does still care about you in a way. I know I care about my exs, but it's completely wrong to think he can "demote" you to FWB. Don't ever let any man play you like that. You obviously care more about the relationship and continuing intimacy will rob you of your emotional well-being. Don't settle for breadcrumbs because it will never be enough for you.

He seemed he was so hurt the last time two times we had fighting and broke up, maybe he did care about the relationship before. Then he told me that he started going to dates with other girls last weekend. He also insulted me lots when we were in fights. This time he seemed he already moved on, so I guess he only wanted to keep me in his life for the sex or company when he is lonely ( he said he just wanted me for sex when he was insulting me last week)

Stick to your guns, it's all or nothing. You don't wanna be his booty call.

Don't confuse caring about someone with wanting to be in a relationship with them. I still love and care about my ex, but I do not want a relationship with her. I could probably pull a FWB out of the wreckage. The difference is that I care enough about her that I wouldn't exploit her vulnerability. Deep down she really wants to be with me and I just couldn't play with her emotions or give her hope like that.

I said the same thing to my ex when I broke up with her, but told her I did not want anything sexual or anything remotely close to give her the idea that I want a relationship with her again.

 

I still care about one of my ex's, but I would never date her again.
