The guy I love withdrew his affections and yet still wants my friendship.

The guy I love has withdrew his affections, says he doesn't fancy me, is happy if I meet another guy, yet still wants to be my friend. Go figure! I love him too much to just be friends, so I made a bit of a scene, crying at the weekend. He comforted me, but later told me in an email that he doesn't want a woman 24/7 as it would drive him crazy. Now advice I have gleened from relationship experts is to say that I accept the situation (usually applied to ex's) and tell the guy that you have exciting plans in your life. It is supposed to make the guy want what he can't have. Now taking that thread in making him want what he can't have, should I still see him as a friend, or stay in contact so we don't lose touch? Or should I just email him (my heat's desire) after a couple of weeks?
