Dear ASKTRP,

I'm in need of some solid advice.

My very good friend of 10 plus years .... I won't say best friend because he's made it clear that I am not his best friend. He flirts , says the L word and the relationship stuff. Asks for selfies all good except he's got a girlfriend in tow with him all day long .

He asked me out on a proper date, he was forth coming. I declined because he's obviously not available .

He continues to ask for favors that are generally reserved for relationships . How should I react or reply.

I would like a friendship but he continues to hide our relationship from her creating loads of drama and hurt feelings.

How shall I proceed?

Muchas Gracias
