A female United States age 30-35, *ennej writes:

So I have been seeing this guy from work and we have hooked up on several occasions. Everyone at our job knows about us. He's mentioned to a couple of my co-workers that I am more than just a hook-up or a crush, but when asked what was going to happen between us he said that he isn’t looking for anything serious. What should I do or say to that?

Dr. John agony auntDon't read too much into this. Sometimes when it comes to the opposite sex they will say one thing to friends but say something completely different to that one.

What he may in effect be saying is he is treading carfully down this path. In this way he can keep an eye on you and see if you are someone he thinks he may want to have a meaningful relationship with and gradually get close with.

On the other hand if he decides he doesn't want to be with you he has not committed to you so no harm no foul, he can just go his way without feeling he has done you any trauma.

Just remain available to him for the time being if you really want to have a relationship with him and give him the chance to make a move on his own when and if he becomes ready to.

I hope it works out for you. Doc
