5 weeks ago a man came to my house to fix my fridge, we got on so well, we both felt we had known one another all our lives. He is going through a divorce at the moment, I have been divorces for years. He came back the following week and the same thing happened we ending up talking about everything. As he was leaving he asked would I like to go out for a drink.

He gave me his phone number and said it was up to me. I left it for a few days, and said I would like to go out for a drink, since then we have text one another. Now the texts just stopped, so I deleted his emails and numbers and got on with it.

Two weeks later he texts me and asked whether I had been on holiday or something. I was surprised but I replied and said no adding I hope he is ok. It's a few days now and he has not replied, any ideas, confused by the way I am 58 and he is 44.

hlskitten agony auntHi

He could be married.

Might not be that, but if you said you would go for a drink, then he didnt carry that on and only txt a few times then stopped, its likely hes not completely free.

Ive dated a few people in the past, and you soon get to learn the warning signs. I dont suppose i was always right, but i think i was quite close to knowing which ones were attached but hadnt stated that.

Workmen that come to peoples houses have a lot of opertunity to cheat on their partners, ive known women to throw themselves at workmen, its tempting for them!

If it was me, i would txt him and ask if he is attached. Up front maybe, but whats the point in beating about the bush. Its paid off for me in the past, and they admitted they werent happy in their relationship and wouldnt mind a bit of fun blah blah blah, then for me its move on time.

Let us know if you do contact him.

Well I think you should just ask him outright - send him a text if you prefer instead of a confrontation just saying that you notice that at times you hear from him then suddenly there is nothing for ages until you hear from him out of the blue again and you dont know his reasons for being that way but it is not fair on you.

Or if that seems to forward I say wait until you hear from him again THEN something like that should be your reply to him. I am sure you will hear from him again and when you do I think you should use it as a perfect opportunity to get things out in the open.

Sounds like he is inconsistant and even if there are alot of things going on in his life, which they could be - it is still not an excuse to be giving you such unstability where you dont know if you are coming or going! Anyway good luck! x
