What To Do

Hi Gals, I need serious advice.

I matched with this boy on tinder - didn’t expect anything other than some fuckboy situation.

He turned out to be wonderful, took me on actual dates, good morning/goodnight messages, forehead kisses, remembering things I’d said, sincere respect for me. Everything was great and he hit me with the ‘I don’t want anything serious’ so obviously I was like lol ok fuck you, could have mentioned that earlier, anyway I got over my tantrum and he explained to me that he has to move for work at the end of the year for at least two years, possible five so he’s trying to keep emotions out of it to avoid it being hard - totally get it!

So I suggested just calling it quits and asked him what he wanted and he said he wants to be friends and pretty much everything will be the same except we can cut out the sex if I want. I then broached how he actually feels towards me - see attached pics - and I’ve come to the decision that he obviously has feelings for me, and the fact that he’s not just cutting it off straight up is a good sign, but now I am over thinking it all. I don’t know if he’s just saying these things to be nice, or if he means them, and why isn’t he cutting it off? Does this mean there is a chance he wants to see if it progresses in the next 9 months? Like if we both have feelings, obviously still seeing eachother as friends isn’t going to make the feelings go away??
