Very rarely is it easy to remain friends with someone you dated... even if "dated" means going on a handful of dates.
I have also found this to be the case. I either date him or I'm friends with him. If there's no chemistry/attraction on a date, it's way too awkward for me to try to turn that into a friendship, and I don't like to confuse the two.
