sianz81, ok la, don tease you liao. Share with you, i was once in your gal's position but slightly different scenario. I rejected a guy before and made clear clear to him that he's not my type and i will never fall for him. Then he continued to ask me out, telling me that it's just platonic kinda of going out. At that time, i don have a boyfriend and i don have any guy in mind, so i just went out with him cos i was feeling bored. We went out (watch movies, shoppings, outdoors, sports, etc) almost every weekend. This went on for a few months, until i got a boyfriend and then we stopped going out.
If you ask me my mentality when i went out with him then, i can only say i went out with him out of boredom. I'm fair to him cos i made clear to him that i will never fall for him liao and he accepted that the going out will just be platonic. But i could sense he was a bit sad when i first told him i have found myself a boyfriend.
That happens 15yrs ago. And now we are both married, but not to each other. We still keep in touch via facebook.
