Need advice, theres a guy i know very well, hes not ready as he says to be with any one at this point in time. hey thats fine, but the problem is i am so attracted to him its not funny. What bothers me is at times he flirts with me then takes 10 feet back, i flirt to him to but then he just backs off. any advice would be great.Do i keep waiting and just stay friends and hope or do i just forget it....
I think what annoys me so much is hes 44 years old, and im sick of people around that age saying i dont know in life where i am going right now. i say well wait 15 more years and you can retire then you"ll know where your at.
may be your right. but also its all ways me who makes the calls for catching up, hes allways into saying yes, but he never seems to make a effort, but will still flirt with me then take 10 feet back.

I'm not sure I believe anyone is not 'ready' if you are really in tune with someone it will work straight off whatever the circumstances. It's an excuse used rather than saying to someone 'I don't fancy you'.
Trouble is if you really fall for someone, your going to get hurt and there is nothing to be done if you can't play his game.
Yes SirenLydia, i think you are right, maybe hes not interested in me like i maybe thought, its just annoying that he flirts with me and then makes me feel i have a the flew to back off that way from me. as i said men at 44 notknowing what they want and giving mix signals is just a game and i must stop playing it as well. its a shame because we do have lots in commen. But at the end of the day its me making most of the effort and falling on my face. thank you dear.xx
I'm refraining from making more specific comments because the info you gave is very limited. How long and how well you 've known each other and where is he coming from relationship wise.
Your comments are quite emotional and show that you care a lot. Try to take a few steps back and slow down the pace. You need to have a clear conversation and you need to tell hlm what you need. Give him a chance to be the man and then you 'll know. I wish you good luck.
I've had a few types of blokes who also act like this....to be honest I always find out in the end they're a total waste of time. I agree with the person who tells you in his post to show some disinterest. Works with me when I do that, also treat them mean keep them keen can work wonders too
