If he is going through "family issues" then please give him the space and time he needs. Right now this is more important to him. If you want to be more than just friends and he doesn't, then you may want to move on. You cannot force someone to feel a certain way for you.
I really like this guy, but he had family issues and it changed him, and now he just wants to be friends. How do I help him see we have more then just being friends?
i think you need to give the guy space, he has family issues also the other older guys your talking to you need to come out and tell them a truth instead of letting them live a lie about you .
