    sounds like one of mine but I'm a flirt lol if he's more than a friend he can try to put in a little more effort unless you guys are just starting up. He might just be that way or he might not want to seem as into you as he really is.

    Actions speak louder than words. Spoken words speak louder than text based communication.

    Have some in person time and figure it out!

    Suuuure doesn't! I flirt with some friends sometimes but not in a good morning text and not with lots of x's and o's and sexy's!

    Definitely no. Is this your boy who wants to be friends but treats you like a girlfriend?

    I lean toward no, but I wouldn't say "definitely not". Depends completely on the relationship history.

    I hate to be the pragmatic weasel, but to be fair, you did set the tone by calling him "sexy," so I wouldn't go overboard trying to read his intentions into his response.

    "Sexy, xoxoxox, can't wait to see you" all to me say not just a friend but would need more context then that short text message to say one way or the other. I would try and not over analysis this one.

    This is the guy that I've been seeing. The one who said it doesn't feel right to be with someone that has kids. Do you remember that post of mine???

    Right. I always call him sexy. We have been seeing each other for a couple months. There is a story behind this. I mentioned it in a reponse above.

    When I want to flirt, I always start out by saying "G2 by Gatorade is nasty. Yuck" "Morning sexxy" is the only appropriate response a gal has. It just makes it so easy.

    I'm a little confused because the low cal G2 by gatorade is awesome and tastes like Kool-Aid.

    Well it's not like he's still trying to get in my pants. We've been doing the deed for a couple months now. We see each other 2-3 times a week. Hang out. Watch movies. Go eat dinner. Eat dinner at home. Whatever we do we have a blast.

    I would say... no it doesn't sounds like just friends.

    BUT...

    You know that is all he is saying he wants so unless his words and actions match up, you're selling yourself short. If you're just having fun, cool but if you're invested more into it, then you're going to get hurt.

    That's the thing. His actions are WAY more sweet than his words. He cannot sit next to me w/o kissing my hand, my arm, my forehead. Holds my face and looks at me. Smiles like crazy. Makes these sweet little noises when he hugs me.

    You need to tell this guy to **** or get off the pot, you're setting yourself up to get badly hurt. Why get involved to the extent of texting everyday and getting strong feelings when he already told you he couldn't date you because of your kids?

    Okay, you wanted honest, so here goes:

    If he's been sleeping with you for a couple of months and he's not calling you his girlfriend, you need to end this friendship/relationship immediately unless you can deal with just being the chick he's hanging out with.

    He gets to spend 2 to 3 nights a week with you. He gets to have sex with you. He gets to have cozy dinner and a movie nights at home with you. And he doesn't even have to commit to you. For the record, most guys love this sort of arrangement and are in no hurry to give it up. It honestly sounds to me like he's playing you like a slide guitar with all the babe this, xoxoxo that.

    I'm sure that was a big, fat, wet blanket, but it seems clear to me that you have more than just friendly feelings for this guy, so if he's not willing to step up and be a man for you, then you need to walk before you get hurt. It will take longer to get your self-esteem back than it will to find a new man.

    Right.. I understand that. But he's telling you with his own mouth otherwise. I'm all for actions speak louder than words. I am.. but only when the words and actions match up.

    I've been there.. and I read way too much into these little actions but his words and the REAL action (of never making me his gf) were loud and clear. He just wanted to be friends.

    Maybe your guy doesn't want to be "just friends", but if he wanted to be with you 100%, he would... if it's okay that you're only getting 85% of him, then by all means, enjoy. But if you're wanting all of him.. then again, you're selling yourself short and you deserve better. :)

    Well lots of reasons. I went 2 years w/o dating period. My town sucks *kitten*. I have never in my life gotten along with anyone so well. I've never in my life had anyone treat me so sweet. I just plain like him.

    His actions say he's not interested in long term with a woman who has kids, but is gonna enjoy the heck out of you as long as you put up with it because you're beautiful and cool.

    When a man (or a woman) gives words to explain why something won't work out long-term, we would be wise to listen to those words no matter how lovingly he looks into our eyes in the drought moments when he can't get affection/companionship/satisfaction from some other woman.

    Sounds like the perfect deal from his point of view. He gets sex, food, can hang out whenever he wants, but without a relationship or any real commitment. bwahahaha

    So if that's not what you want than start calling the shots, don't put up with his BS.

    Ok but all his sweet text and everything are complete BS!!! If he really felt that way about you he would be in a relationship with you... You're giving him attention until he finds what he's looking for and then you will be out, I promise you that. I understand if you want to have some sort of relationship with him, but make it an FWB and pull your feelings back or your doomed for some hurting in the future.
