Hello, I started my new job in advertising 3 months ago and at work there is this one guy who just acts really peculiar.

I have talked to him on a number of occasions. He also works in advertising and several weeks ago we were both working on similar projects and so I lent him some of my project posters and he gave me his number..anyways so we exchanged numbers.

Well, I was very busy for the next couple of weeks and I didn’t really hear from him but I saw him on a number of occasions and it seemed to me that although he wouldn’t really talk to me he would try and get my attention in a really subtle way.

Well out of the blue he sent me some of his work without me asking for it. So I decided to send him a text asking him whether he would help me with a project I’m working on at the moment…the thing is I haven’t heard from him, I’m not really bothered, the question I have is that I thought he wanted to be friends, so why is he acting distant?

Also why does it seem that he makes an advance one minute and completely backs off another minute? I know that he is in a relationship because I have seen him with his partner at at a company event, I am single.

willywombat agony auntI think you may be readin into something that just isn't there because you fancy this guy. Back off and do not encourage him at all. If he has a partner he shouldn't be behaving like this anyhow! If he really is interested he will make all the running.

Anja agony auntProbably likes you, but is trying to surpress his feelings as does'nt want to get involved due to him being in a reltionship. Sounds like he feels frustrated and that quite possibly his reltionship is not going well. Try and steer clear of him for a bit if you can, and don't encourage him!
