Just friendly, or interested?

Question - (22 November 2014) 3 Answers - (Newest, 22 November 2014)
A female United Kingdom age 30-35, anonymous writes:

I've been texting my guy friend everyday for almost 2 months now. He tells me good morning everyday and he's always saying all he wants is for me to be happy. Lately he's been sending me funny pictures/jokes to make me laugh as well. Just confused though..does he like me? Prior to us texting, we weren't close and we haven't spoken in a year until he texted to say he saw me around in school often (although I haven't seen him around!)

Well, he's certainly interested in something but it's difficult to say whether it's friendship, romance or sex.

But none of the above can develop if all you two do is text each other.

If the contents of your messages are often flirtatious or sexual, then sex is probably all he wants. Sometimes the illicitness of sexting is all a guy is after so avoid sexual content in texts if you're wanting a true friendship or a romantic relationship. If you hadn't heard from him for a year - are you sure he's single? Some guys like a "bit on the side" for sexting fun.

If it's all been fairly clean so far, then he might be shy about taking things further and suggesting to meet up so you might need to suggest it. If you have mutual acquaintances, ask him to join you at a group event with some of them. Ask if he's going to any Christmas parties. Or if he says that he's seen you at school say "Well, next time come up and talk to me! I don't bite!"

I don't know why, but there are a few people in this world who just seem to enjoy living their lives via texts and social media and prefer this to ACTUAL relationships. After 2 months of texting with no hint of meeting, I would be wondering whether this applied to this guy. If it continues for another month or so, I think you should stop regarding him as romantic option. I'm not saying stop texting him - just don't get your hopes up
