A female age 41-50, anonymous writes:

This guy at work, is being flirty too much with me. He has a GF that works in the same company but different area. Every time we are in a meeting or reunion he looks for me and sits by my side, likes to talk to me and is pretty aware of what is happening to me. Some other people at work say he asks about me, etc.

It almost got me, until today where I took the time to really talked with him of many things.

So, I asked him about his relationship and he was saying how he loves his GF, wants to marry her and they are looking for a house and stuff. How he likes to watch other girls but still love her. So, I think he really loves her and wants to settle down.

Now, he was telling me that one of the advantages of being single is that you can do whatever you want, see whoever you want, etc. But he confuses me and I think he's confused too.

I congratulated him for wanting to settle down so I'm ready to back off from him, but he still looks for me and it puzzles me. Why is he acting like that then, so what the hell is going on with this guy anyway?

A male reader, anonymous, writes (12 September 2008):

Hi. This bloke sounds like a right idiot. He does not sound like a womanising idiot - he just sounds like an idiot. He'll soon lose interest in you because of the very reason that he is an idiot. Don't waste any time on him. Best you can do is to keep each other in the friend zone. He is not discreet or subtle, he is not aloof - he is needy. I've never met him of course but from what you are saying I can only deduce that he really is a bit of a drip. Find yourself a real man. If after a few years he (still?) has the hots for you and you've seen no evidence of any foul play on his part then maybe then go for it. In the meantime your idiot radar should be working over time. Try flirting with other guys in his presence to see whether he ups his game or moves on to the next 'target'. Yours, Fifth-Quadrant.
