I dated a newly divorced guy for 6 months.He then said he didn't know what he wanted so I told him to stop contacting me until he did and if he then wanted to see me again and I was still single we could talk about it.Now 6 months later he has texted apologising for his actions saying he had been confused.He hopes I meet someone who appreciates me if I haven't already.He didn't ask to see me again but then started asking me my holiday plans and to let him know if I need his help in fixing my car (he is a mechanic).I didn't*answer his offer.What is he up to?Does he just want to be friends?Surely if he wanted to meet he just would have asked?

Oh, he doesn't want to scare you prematurely, but I assume he wants to be more than just friends...

You'd think if he wanted more than friendship he would not be wishing I met someone else?!If he wants to meet why cannot he just say so outright.Men are so strange sometimes!

He's just feeling you out to find out if you have met someone yet or not. If you want to resume with him then reply, if not then block him and forget it. Not that difficult.

Once "confused", always confused.

He's interested. He's putting the feelers out. He's being gracious by wishing you well while also leaving an opening for you to tell him that you're still single. If you let him know you are, you can expect him to be more direct. If you ignore him, he'll probably linger for a while then go away. Balls in your court.

I often wonder how many "chances at love" are squandered due to shyness.

Sounds like he's testing the waters, so to speak. If you don't respond at all, he's going to assume you're not interested.


If you DO respond, he'll wade into the water a little more. So...he's interested, but he's trying to figure out if you still are.
