Does he really just want to be friends?
I have known this guy a short time (3 weeks). He calls me everyday and texts me all the time. He calls me his friend. He knows I would like it to be more. He hugs me everytime I see him. I push the envelope by touching him and he doesn't pull away but he says he doesn't want to "ruin the friendship" ( and yes I read about that statement!) He always invites me to go with him to events and just to hang out. We have even "slept" together before and he likes to be near me but wont cross the line. Is it just too soon? He has had some bad relationship experiences in the past and has said he doesnt want to hurt or be hurt.

Honestly, I think if you actually made the effort to ask the guy if he wants a relationship and he turns it down with some excuse, especially after three weeks? That he's most likely not intrested, a guy who is intrested in dating isnt going to purposly turn her down when she takes all the hard work out and asks HIM if he wants a relationship. I think he just likes you as a friend, but you never know it might be real, i wouldnt count on it though.
My goodness. Why would you even question a man like this?!? This is the most rare of circumstances and one of the best. To have a man who doesn't treat you like you're a peice of meat but is still affectionate and intimate. If he is truely a gentleman and you keep trying to touch him and violate what he's told you were his limits you'll be sorry because he'll walk away to find a woman who respects his boundaries. He's trying to be respectful and do things in a way that does not soil the possibility of a deeper relationship in the future. Stop being so rushed and enjoy the company of this man. You aren't going to find too many of them.
