First (well, this is like my 6th comment, but it SHOULD'VE been first, pardon me, I'm a bit riled…), Most, great post, I believe you spoke from the heart and posts like this are definitely a huge reason that women come to SBM, for this real, raw male perspective that is hard to hear and therefore we rarely get from the men in our lives that care about us.

Now that I got that outta the way, lemme tell you all the ways that you are wrong ;-)
What do women expect from emotionally unavailable men?
To be treated like a human being with the capability of human emotion and to not be pieced out like a car in a chop shop. i.e. If you gotta tell me not to fall in love, just walk away man. You already know/suspect I'm fittin to fall in love obviously, or do you just tell every woman that you meet not to fall in love with you? I mean c'mon, you know the signs. If she's feeling you too much, you pull back. Remind her you're unavailable to her-not "right now" TO HER. I'm not asking you to do anything that we don't do every day too! You know that dreaded "Friend Zone"? Yeah, that's a special place for men that we don't see a future with, so we do this crazy thing: we don't treat them like men that we DO see a future with. Crazy, I know, that silly woman logic #sarcasm. Treat friends like friends and potentials like potentials.

What can an emotionally unavailable man do to prevent a woman he’s interested in from falling for him?
At that point when you feel the need to tell her not to fall in love, pump ya breaks, give her some space, or leave her alone altogether. Yup that mean you lose your "interest" or "friend" or whatever she was…them's the breaks.

Should he just lose your number and disappear, is that what you’d prefer?
YES! YES! A million times YES!
