A age 36-40, anonymous writes:

A guy friend of mine, who i used to have a casual thing with about a year ago, has been acting really "odd" i guess you could call it. He has a girlfriend now, who he's been with about a year or so. Anyway, when he got with her i was devastated, i mean heart broken, but i eventually decided to just deal with it and try and move on.

So, we carried on talking as "friends" he called it, because he wanted to still be friends, he told me. Recently, he came into town for christmas and we met up for a bit. Long story short, we were walking home and he started asking about the guy i'm seeing, what's his name, job, etc... I told him i wasn't going to tell him about who i'm dating. As we went to go our separate ways, he tried to kiss me but i walked away.

Before this happened he had kept on asking who i'm seeing, am i dating, what are they like etc... I don't know why because he had a chance to be with me but decided to be with this other girl (who i don't know).

Just last night online, he said "how's your bf? :p". What does he want and why is he asking me this? He knew full well i liked him but only kept it casual with me until it ended and he got with this girlfriend.

Why does he care who i'm dating? He asked me why i haven't come up to visit him. He lives in another town with some of his mates. He's in a long distance relationship but i live further away then she does, so it's not like it's because i just live closer and she's not there.

I have no idea what to make of this.

I know this type of guy... he needs to have his ego stroked by as many women as possible... now that you are not paying attention to him and pining after him he's playing with you to get you to come back to ego stroking for him

aunt honesty agony auntThis guy sounds dangerous and you should just remove him out of your life because he is playing with your emotions, dont be fooled in to believing he has feelings for you, because he has his chance like he said but he didnt want you. It sounds to me like he is asking you all of these questions because he knew at one point that you liked him and am guessing he liked the attention and now he is worried that you are dating other guys that you are not going to have feelings for him and he wont get his cheap thrill of knowing that there is another girl besides his girlfriend that wants him. He is only thinking of himself here and his ego as he knows at one point you did want him.

He obviously doesnt think that much of his girlfriend either if he is trying to come on to you. Dont tell him anything about your private life and i honestly dont think you need this guy as a friend as he will only play with your emotions. Goodluck.
