Help me :/

I meet this guy a while ago and it was love at first sight for me. We didn't see each other for a while after that but then we meet again through friends and started seeing each other and sleeping together which was a first for me. Anyway after about a month of never being apart I asked him where the realationship was goin and he said he wanted it to be fully a friends with benefits "just having fun" situation because his past was bad with relationships and even though my love for him makes me wanna be fine with that I'm not, and my heart hurts when ever he ignores me or does anything misleading. I wish that he could love me and treat me like I'm more important because I really do think we could work, but he always saids no. What do I do?
