does he really want to be with me or is he just using me? I met up with an old school friend recently. We hadn't seen each other for 21 years!! We got on so well, as if the past 21 years apart hadn't happened. He lives an hour away and works nights, so we started meeting each other every weekend. After a few weeks, we became very close. He got divorced from his wife 2 years ago and he said that he wasn't ready for a serious relationship. I accepted that and then we agreed that we would remain friends. After a week, he changed his mind saying that he couldn't cope with us being just friends, that he wanted to be with me and see's me in his future and doesn't want to be with anyone else! Great I thought, he's introduced me to almost all of his family and we got on great. Since then he seems to have backed off, the texts aren't as often and the phone calls dropped down. We have made social plans together for the next couple of weeks, but why now has he gone so quiet on me? Is he changing his mind about us, does he need time to get used to being in a 'relationship' again. (He says that I'm the first person he's been with since his divorce)?? please help me, I'm so confused!!

cinc71 agony auntDon't panic, see how it goes. Maybe he was just busy lately. Just make sure you keep in touch without making him feel he needs to rush into something he doesn't. Maybe he's just careful because he's afraid of getting hurt again. Be patient :) Good luck!
