A female United Kingdom age 41-50, anonymous writes:

hi all,ive got a bit of a dilemma and wonder if you can give your honest opinions :) basically ive become friendly with a guy who teaches fitness at my sons school,when I say friendly I mean we chat and txt each other ocassionally,i see him once a week for fitness,and we have such a laugh together at his class.a few weeks ago I suggested that we go do something when hes free as hes extremely busy all week with his job its 7 days a week.so far as yet we aint met up at this point but he assures me we will when hes free.i think hes a real nice guy and find myself wanting to get to know him better.i only see him once a week,which I enjoy,but im wondering if he likes me at all as I don't want to make a fool of myself.when we are together hes quite touhy feely such as hugging me touching my arm hair etc... but doesn't act this way when other ppl of the class are about.i don't know how to take it? is he being friendly or is he flirting with me?

Or am I just reading to much into nothing hehe.by the way did I mention hes a teacher at my sons school also.and also we did meet up once for a few hours after his class and had a little chat.and we spoke about life love work etc.he said he shouldn't really have met me in case we were spotted because he s a teacher etc.but we wernt doing anything wrong just chatting that's all.

Also went on to say that he wouldn't mix business with pleasure im assuming that he ment he wouldn't date parents and fellow collegues.but ven so he did still make the offer for us to hang out when hes free.

what do you guys make of this situation.im not after a relationship with this guy but I do like him hes funny attractive and smart which makes me want to get to know him.but if the opportunity came where I might get a cheeky kiss I wouldn't say no :)

I guess what im saying is im just unsure if hes into me or he's just a friendly guy/flirt and wether I should just cut my losses or wait for his invitation to do something ? thanks guys look forward to yr honest replies x

I think that he's being friendly and a little flirtatious as well. However, that does not mean he wants to pursue anything with you. If he likes you and want more he will let you know. Besides you've already suggested meeting up outside of the class. If he doesn't take the initiative to make a move then he does not want to take it any further. You need to leave it alone and move on. Sometimes you just have to look at things for what they are and not read more into it.

I think he's being kind and trying not to hurt your feelings. Moreover, and he doesn't really want to jeopardize his job.

I don't believe he's that into you.

You somewhat have him cornered; by flirting and texting. If he really wanted to, he'd find the time to see you. I think you're pressing the issue; and that you should really back-off and end the flirtation. Find someone who has time for you. Waiting for him is a waste of your time.

Flirtations that don't turn into dates is just that. Flirting. Not having time is just his polite excuse.

Take it easy for a bit; don't chase after him, wait and see what happens because sometimes guys get turned off when the woman does most of the pursuing, so just hang back a bit. His intentions will become clear after a while.
