God I'm so confused.. where did he say he didn't want you? Did you leave it out or was it just the:

He looked me in the eye and gave me that "wait a minute..." look, and I guess he must have thought I was a little hurt by that comment, because he took my hand and said, very slowly, "Sharon, I like you a lot, and I enjoy spending time with you, and although I see you as a friend, and a very good friend, I would never be ashamed of being associated or seen with you. It might even be good for my reputation. And I really don't care if there are rumours, because I really don't care what people think anyway."

Cause that doesn't sound like a shut-down at all, but rather a "I'd love to be your boyfriend and I wouldn't care what people say."
I don't want to lead you down a path of futility, but... ? He
doesn't like you? It sounds like you two need to get married now because you're so in love with each other..
