There's this boy that is scared to love. I like him a lot. I'm pretty sure he likes me. He wants to have a low key type of relationship. Almost like friends with benefits. How do I not let myself feel nothing for him?

Depending on how complex this relationship is going to develop, it may be hard to maintain yourself away from developing feelings for this person. If this person does not have feelings for you the same way you have feelings for this person, it will eventually create a sense of conflict between what you want and need from this relationship. Its is important to ask yourself if this is the type of relationship you would like to have before you commit to something that may end up hurting you in the long run. i wish you the best of luck and hope for the best outcome in this situation!

First you need to ask yourself is that kind of relationship the kind that you really want at this time. If you are ok with that then you need to tell yourself that is the way the relationship is going to be and nothing more is going to come with it! But do what makes you happen not what someone else wants in the relationship! Rethink having this kind of relationship that is almost like friends with benefits. If he likes you then he will let him self see where things go and not be afraid of love. Love just happens!
