Is he keeping his options open?

Tagged as: Dating<< Previous question   Next question >>
Question - (1 December 2014) 3 Answers - (Newest, 1 December 2014)
A female United Kingdom age 51-59, anonymous writes:

Hi Cupids,

I was asked out by a guy on Facebook who likes my pictures on Facebook. He was open with me and said he needed a woman. At first we flirted a bit, but I thought he was a bit too forward and pushy so I turned him down when he did come onto me - although I did like him.

However, he tells me he has moved on now to someone else - nothing serious just casual - but he still keeps in touch (not in a flirty way - just to say hello etc..) - but he hasn't deleted me that's for sure.

So my question is - could he still be interested in me, by keeping in touch or is he just being polite? He knows I still like him - but he seems to be rather cool now.

Any ideas?

Are you the same person who has already asked about this and the guy has moved onto your friend?

If so, you had some really good advice - the guy is after a physical thing.

If not, then this just sounds very familiar and I would recommend you just move on. He was too pushy with you and clearly wanted one thing. Don't put imaginary feelings onto someone just because they initially showed some interest. Someone else will come along soon enough who might not be as pushy and actually want to get to know you as a person.

Some guys just play you well, by keeping contact he's got you as another option when he's lonely.

There's a pretty good chance that he's still interested in a purely physical relationship. If that's what you want them ask him out.
