What does it mean when a guy stops flirting with you openly then stops but you catch him staring at you?

Question

The guy at first i liked him, he didn't know, then all of a sudden he turned up the flirting to high, looking in my eyes for a long time, not letting my hand go, telling me he loved my apple bottom jeans, we would go out to movies together (with our kids, we both are divorced with kids) then all of a sudden nothing. But I still catch him staring at me out of the corner of my eye, he even showed up at my house with out calling to pick up something for his daughter (he usually always calls), but something has changed and I cant put my finger on it. he seems a little distant. Could it be he likes someone else?

Answer 1

It could be a number of things, from something as extreme as he's not actually divorced or as simple as him not wanting to seem like he's coming on too strong.  The only sure way is to ask him up front and hope he gives you an honest answer.  No one can possibly know what goes on in that cranium of his but him.  

Answer 2

it means that he's not getting any.  Women are so naive, give him some s*x and i'll bet your relationship will skyrocket!!!  He's not gonna rape you.  Or... he likes someone else who will give him what he wants

Answer 3

Ask him.
