Is he playing hard to get or just not interested?

Question - (5 April 2010) 2 Answers - (Newest, 5 April 2010)
A female United Kingdom age 41-50, anonymous writes:

I need help with working out whether this man is playing hard to get - or just not interested.

I work with this man and he is quite a lot older than me. We really clicked and we had a laugh togther, as well as more emotional discussions. He constantly hints that he is interested by commenting on my apprearance and asking me to trust him. He has also offered to take me out - but never gone through with it! He uses any excuse to touch me e.g. massage, playfighting, even tickling, and he often touches my knee. He also tells me a lot about his life and his emotional state. He also boasts a lot - so he seems to want me to be attracted to him.

The problem is that somethimes he goes cold and the other day he tried to kiss me (I think - well I had to move to avoid him kissing me on the lips!)and when I mentioned this he said we were both in a relationship with other people and I had said the wrong thing. He acted a bit annoyed and distracted - although he must know how much I fancy him by now.

Any help will be greatly appreciated.

CindyCares agony aunt It sounds just like normal male posturing and I don't think it means anything special. It means that he finds you attractive. It means that he likes flirting. It means that he's a bit vain and likes getting your attention. Stuff like that.

It does not mean ( and I think he made it pretty clear ! ) that he is willing to jeopardize his current relationship by taking a mild flirtation with you to another level,

Tasmanian devil agony auntI think hes just using you as an escape from an unhappy relationship and when he feels hes going to far is cold to stop himself. But that doesn't mean he doesn't actually like you, maybe he just doesn't want to leave his current relationship
