Should I switch from Spanish to another language?

I've been learning Spanish for half a year now. I've always wanted to learn a new language but I didn't have the opportunity to do so during secondary school. Back then, I would have probably picked French, German, or Japanese.
During high school, I met an online friend who happens to be Spanish and we ended up talking every day. At uni, I had the opportunity to pick whatever I want as a new language for fun and the beginner courses here have a reputation for being easy to get good grades. I picked Spanish as I simply have someone to practice with and I think having a language buddy will definitely help me to become fluent in a language.
I ended up enjoying studying the Spanish language very much and I made surprisingly fast progress by myself. I love the way Spanish sounds. However, I do realise that I did initially pick a language because "I have some online friend who speaks that language". I don't have a crush on him (I am a girl btw), yet I think this is kind of a ridiculous reason to pick a language to learn and will lead to assumptions from other people and I do not want that.
The truth is I wasn't particularly interested in Latin American culture and I dont have any plans to travel there (I am from Asia - Latin America is so far away and my parents will not be willing to pay for the flight tickets anyway).
I think switching may be a good idea as I don't want my online friend to think that I have feelings for him. Both of us are single. I may lose contact with him one day.
Should I switch to another language (eg. French)?
