Should love start with friendship

its not a must but mostly yeah

Some relationships develop from a prior friendship where there was always mutual attraction. That's not the situation here.

By his definition, he wants to enjoy the emotional and sexual aspects of a relationship without the need for commitment or exclusivity with you, either for a long period of time or not at all. 'Friends' here means casual dating.

Since he was more or less upfront about what he wants, and you don't share his view, politely decline dating him.

Answer

A lot of people think of the term friends as that barrier that you can't get out of. Think about this, if you saw a beautiful women or man around town and u started talking to them that day, would it be normal to ask them out that same day or would it be better to get to know them first aka become friends. One thing is for sure, become friends first but don't let your self get trapped in that friend barrier. How to do that you ask? Well, show the person that you are very interested in them and that you want you want to be more than just friends, you want to date them (get in a relationship.)
