We've known each other for almost a year now.He's flirted with me off and on in the past,and though we're friendly,it's not more than that.I really like him and have grown more attracted to him,but he's playing these come hither games with me it seems.He'll firt one day then the next time I see him he'll be chilly and distant acting,friendly but not warm.Then when I least expect he'll surprize me by being unexpectedly teasing and seems like he wants to say something but doesn't.He just leaves.He's always joking about how he hates being single,and so I get the impression he's interested,but then he backs off.It's like the more I show interest and chat with him the more he seems to retreat.I pull back and he's all approachable again.From what I gather he's not dated in quite awhile and I'm divorced,nearly a year now.I feel out of the loop for it's been some 9 years since I've dated anyone.Am I being too desperate acting? Not approachable enough? Am I assuming there's something there when there isn't anything more than friendly? I feel so clueless! It's easy to talk with him over general things but this,scare the h**l out of me,how do I break the ice without pushing him away? Could he just be plain shy?He doesn't appear that way,but I notice around me he acts different than with other women,he'll look at me longer seem more easy going,relaxed.Then he'll be talking with them and seem more flighty,playful but light.I don't get it.It feels like an act,could he be attracted and afraid to show it? Or has he and I'm too clueless to notice?
