I Am Just Your Friend!!!!!!!!!!

What is there to do when one of your friends start crushing on you? I have this problem with a guy friend of mines. He used to stop by to visit me almost everyday. We he was unable to see me, he called instead. I mean like a dozen times a day if I do not pick up the phone. There is nothing wrong with my friend. I just believe his has mistaken my kindness toward him as an open invitation of become more than just friends. I'm not attractive to him that way at all. Every conversation we have is about me. He says repetitiously, " Sherri, I want you." You are so pretty to me. I want to marry you someday. Don't get me wrong. I finally told him, " I am not attractive to you the same way you are attractive to me, so that there won't be any misunderstanding between us. His romantic attraction to me kind to draws me away from him. I don't want him to become too attached to me by communicating with me too much or by spending too much time with him. I am trying to respect my friend's feelings. What advice do you have to offer to help me deal with this situation more delicately.

The same problem actually troubled me for some time before.well,sometimes the thing could get worse when you want to make it clear to your friend.So my advice is the following.Try to have a conversation with him in an appropriate time about the issue .If you have tried, then turn to your female friends who also knows him,maybe the conversation between your female friend and him could take effect.If it's no use,how about telling him you already have a boyfriend actually,if he doesn't believe, try to find someone as your tempory boyfriend.
