Hi! Ok, this situation is a bit more complicated than I'd like it to be, but it is what it is.

I met a guy 3 1/2 years ago and things didn't work out. Now, we've started talking again and we decided to do a friends with benefits type of thing. Which was cool with me. I mean I've always been attracted to him and vice versa. I should mention that he told me he was always straight forward with people and he would be with me (he said he didn't want to be my boyfriend, which is fine as I was not asking for that even though I've always feelings for him-not strong ones, but they're there).

Well, we still have sex on a regular basis and talk and whatnot (hey, we're friends). Anyway, I recently told him that I was going to try dating again, just dating-not sex, with other guys. He got really short with me and started to talk to me in a really cold manner. I asked him if there was anything wrong and he started talking about how he had had this connection with me that he had never had with anyone else and that he couldn't see himself being happy until I was happy again. Now he's constantly talking to me like we're in a relationship and about how he cares about me and thinks I'm the sweetest and that he doesn't deserve a girl like me.

I honestly I have no idea what he's talking about and anytime I ask him his response is always "I've said to much, I'm going to stop talking now".

What in the world am I supposed to think? I clearly can't get a straight forward answer out of him even though he always claims to be "honest" and "straight forward" with everyone.

Most guys are possesive, and wouldnt want to share a gal, even when they are not ready to commit. i think he is not too sure about having you as his girl friend, but at the same time cannot stand the idea that another guy might want to 'take over' his place in your life. just go on dating and dont force him to say he wants to commit. let him say it himself...gud luck!!
