Do you think its possible that a guy can give gifts to a woman without wanting something from her?

Do you think its possible that a guy can give gifts to a woman he finds attractive without wanting something from her? I lived with "Stan" for about three months when we agreed it wouldnt work out. I moved into my own place and Stan and I still keep in touch. Whenever Ive had trouble financially, hes offered to help out without strings. (Ive taken him up on it twice.) I ask him if hes expecting "anything" in return, and he says he doesnt; he finds me attractive and he wants me to be safe. I cant believe thats all there is - what do you think?

Dear Brittney,
I think the answer is self-evident. If he hasn't tried anything, said anything, or done anything, then you must take him at face value until he does something to make him untrustworthy. Are you sure you're not a bit put off that he doesn't want something more? Sometimes we like when people like us and we can tell them we don't return the feelings. It makes us feel somehow more than we are.You don't say who was the first to say it wouldn't work out, but my guess it was him.
If you're sure he wants something from you,and you're sure you don't want to give it to him, then the best solution is not to take his assistance, no matter how rarely you do and then to cease your connection. But something tells me you aren't going to do that.
