I met this guy through work and he had just came out of a long term relationship and we had been texting and then went on a date and he kissed me, but afterwards he avoided meeting up and he stopped texting me.

He eventually told me it was because he wasn't over his ex. We had stopped texting for a while and then he started texting me again like we used to and he said he was over his ex but he's not the best texter, he puts a lot of effort into his texts.

Sometimes suddenly stops texting me during the day and gets back to me the following day.

I am not sure if he likes me as he hasn't asked me to meet up outside work yet but in work we get on so well

I can't see the point sometimes why guys are so hard to read, they'll text you today and ignore you the next day. Texting is a very unreliable factor on determining if the other person is into you or not. I have a guy friend from work whom I see almost everyday, we chat and text while at work but don't really talk outside work

Maybe he's still in the process of moving on or he has moved on but with different girl but since he works with you he can't reveal something that would cause awkwardness.

Yes, I'm just assuming and opening up a possibility but if he has any real intentions he will talk to you about taking things slow.

Don't ever trust a guy who's inconsistent. Just keep it casual and avoid expecting a lot from him.

Honeypie agony auntIf I were you I'd back away now.

He still isn't over her and you are a convenient rebound. The fact that HE seems utterly in change of everything, communications etc, makes it a bit uneven, don't you think?

Keep flirting out of the texting, regard him as a friend and co-worker only.

Dating in the work place is rarely a good idea, specially when it doesn't work out.
