You are looking for a "perfect" solution. Based on your information it does not exist. It is a win win for him and a no win for you. You know too much and it is going to drive you crazy. You acknowledge you probably care more than him so you are the most vulnerable. He is on one page and you are on another.
If the two of you fall out completely, it could become major uncomfortable for you. I am basing the following on the assumption that the two of you are intimate. Do you want to be part of his "'stable?" Do you think it might be demeaning to you? He has told you he wants to keep his options open and play the field. Do you really want to waste your time of that scenario, probably with your hopes up, when you could be putting your energy into finding something more authentic? IMO it would be in your best interest to just be friends. Otherwise you are probably are going to get hurt...
If after a few months of dating, even on and off, you haven't decided that you like one another enough to move forward, it's not going to happen. It's best that you remain acquaintances, you're not going to get what you want from this guy...
I would keep this one casual. date using Match.com and see other guys too..
