Well the good news is youre not interested romantically, so youre not going to get hurt here.
People in a first-time relationship sometimes see all their S/O's opposite-sex friends as a potential threat and go on the offensive. I know because I did that myself, and lost the girl because of it.
The guy obviously cant move backwards or forwards. Either she lightens up and gets a clue, or hes going to get tired of his impossible position and move on.
But I'd back off and let them figure that out for themselves. I sense he considers you a bit of a confidant in this ("you understand my situation"), and my advice to that is DONT. Make him do it himself or you truly will be the one in the middle.
