After I got a job post-uni I became much closer with one of my guy friends (knew him for about 3-4yrs) for about a few months. We did a lot of coupley stuff and spoke on the phone a lot but never had sex, the furthest it ever got was he would play with my tits once or twice in bed. I never knew he really liked me though and got with another guy for one night. I told my friend we should stay as friends but he told me was properly into me. If he'd said something earlier we probably would've had a relationship but I decided to move on. He got really upset and one evening a few months later he bought me a box of chocolates + xmas card saying we should still be friends, told me he still liked me and somehow we ended up spending the night together at mine. I still didn't want a relationship though but he wasn't getting the message so for the next few months even though he wanted to hang out I didn't know what to do but basically ignore him. In the end I had to tell him that the night we hooked up I was just really upset about work and was hugely drunk and that he took too much notice of us holding hands, texting a lot etc that I mentioned at the beginning.
Ever since then he's bitched to our mutual friends about me, how much I led him on and how I didn't care about our friendship at all (which is not true). From what i've said, does this seem to be the case? I was honest with him that I didn't want a relationship but he never listened and never stopped bugging me. Thoughts?
