This is a weird one, hope it's not too long with the background info...

There's this guy that I've known for years. We worked together for 1 1/2 years and shared a fling (although we never meet outside of work) - he was in a relationship at the time, although he wanted out.

I was under 16 and he was in his mid 20's. We got on really well, he knew my family and he always looked out for me. Although maybe he took advantage of me, due to my young age, however I was a promiscuious teen and he didn't encourage me to do anything I didn't want to do.

I left the company 2 1/2 years ago. Since then I've only seen him a handful of times. Our paths kept crossing (fate maybe?); I started thinking, maybe there's unfinished buissness there. After all he's a good catch.

I went to his place of work last week. He was pleased to see me. My friend told me he kept looking at me the whole time. When I left I took him number. I texted him a few days later, but still haven't heard from him (it has only been a few days though...)

I'm now obsessing about it and wondering if going back to an old flame is a good idea. I'm wondering if its because he's a good catch or if I'm afraid to move forward in my life, so am running back, despite the fact I'm looking for a possible relationship not another fling.

I know he still fancies me, but I'm worried maybe I left it to long to get back in touch. I know he's single now, but I'm not sure if he'd be interested in anything more. How can I find out what he wants with out being too forward... Is this a good idea?

thanx for reading Cx

I would be very careful of this idea. He cheats once, he can do it again, and he knows you are up for it.If you really want to know,express your interest, in that you want an ongoing relationship. He will say yes or no. If it is no...move on!!
