That is/was always such an eye-roller. Either they are extremely naive or they are trying to hook up without appearing to do so.

Guy from Portland: Casually dated one summer, never shared physical affection of any kind. Over the school year, we e-mailed each other twice. When he showed up in Provo suddenly (at the HFAC, not at my apartment at night), he said he was visiting his cousins/aunt/ uncle, and was going to go to General Conference. I hadn't heard from him in months, I had no reason to believe he came because he was in love with me. I told him I had a boyfriend, he said he was just interested in being casual friends.

When he called my parent's house the next summer, Mike overheard him asking (damn that speaker phone!) if I wanted to hang out. I didn't say yes, and I had not intention of saying yes. I don't know what Mike was so pissed about. It's not my fault he called, I didn't encourage him in any way.

Guilty, guilty, guilty. You encouraged him by accepting at face value his statement that he wanted to be casual friends. His obvious plan was to at least be well positioned should Mike fall in some way. Your response should have been, "Mike is my all. I have no need for friends."
