My guess is this guy is feeling like he needs to get laid more then anything. SOME PEOPLE out there think a good lay would answer everything that is wrong.
Do you think he may be trying to seduce me?

Giving me gift's, writing songs, complimenting me on my looks...I'm starting to put it together now. He has casually mentioned maybe a sleep over (just as friends), which I declined of course. He just want to go to bed, doesn't he? Maybe he thinks I will be the cure to his pain. Is he wanting friends with benefits? That's ewwwww.

My guess is that even though he is just now getting divorced, its been some time since they did the bone dance.
I'm not bone dancing with him. That's for sure. The Bone dance? Is that what you kids call it these day's?

Yes, he's actions and words would classify as someone who is starved for affection.

Actually, you'd be lucky if he's just after sex, which I highly doubt myself. Wake up! The guy would love to hang on to the leg of your pants (not panties, but pants - as in trousers) like a toddler! Based on what I hear, he'd be much more interested in that than in sex. You have 2 kids - no need to adopt another one!

He suggested a sleep over?
oh my god, this is giving me the creeps just reading it.

I'll bet you if he found you in a weak moment, like after a couple drinks, he would pounce. I would tell him to move on before you sic the dog on him.

That reminds me EXACTLY of that older man I had a hard time getting rid of.

Ohhh all I wanted was a friend, how did I attract this craziness?

Now I get it. Where have I been? He wants someone in a similar situation to lick wounds with and do the chicken dance all in an attempt to distract himself or us from feeling the grief that comes with divorce. That's it, wow, well no thanks, I can lick my own wounds...

Yeah a few times. Something like this.

"You know, now that my wife's not living here if you and the girls ever want to spend the night, I have a spare bedroom." LOL (this really isn't funny is it?) That is pretty creepy. I respond with this.

"I don't think that's a good idea" Then he say's "You're so grounded, you always bring me back to earth" Me, thinking...Yeah I've got it together, that's why I keep you around so that you can keep telling me that.

He also introduced me to his kids as his "best friend" (we've known each other about a month), and then later gave me a long hug in front of them. Not cool, dude. Seriously, we got together for a "playdate" he's a SAHD, no big deal right? WRONG. No wonder I was uncomfortable. Sometimes you need to step back from life to really look at it. I've got to make some changes here.

That's right - lick your own wounds! Good thing neither of you is officially divorced and the law protects ya. How many miserable subsequent marriages have been started by licking wounds together or by wounded and saviors... probably as many as children conceived by "oops" withdrawals. When you're vulnerable all of sudden you may become delusional and see a "soulmate" before you... Because no matter how strong you appear to be, you know you're vulnerable, too.

Ah yes the soulmate, what's that called when your out in the desert and you're really thirsty and you see a body of water in the distance, but it's not really water, it's still sand? That's what I think you're describing.

Yes I have my weaknesses...if we were talking about my yoga instructor I may be singing a different tune.

Yep, soulmates and mirages could be filed under synonyms. That's the most bitter and expensive drink of water ever, particularly if one decides to share it with the city hall... If you're gonna drink it, drink it alone and don't sign any paperwork... But as I said, you're still protected by the existing paperwork! Perhaps now IS a good time to get it out of your system!

He wanted you and your daughters to sleep over? Thats even MORE creepy if you ask me.
