I recently got to know a guy at work, whose been divorced for a year (wife cheated on him).

 

We work in retail, and occasionally chat here and there about how work sucks, and just life. He told me he moved here because his wife cheated on him, and livin in his sisters place. 6 months ago he told me hes dreading going back for his daughters wedding. When he did come back, I asked him about it and he said he didnt go because his ex-wife was there waving her new ring around, and he didnt want to deal with the drama.

Since then, we talk more and more.

One night him and I went out with two others from work, and he took my bill from one of my friends who was gonna pay, and told her not to worry about it he'll take care of it. I didn't know until later, when I assumed she took care of it for a birthday gift. The next day, I gave him a thank you card with pictures I took that night. I told him I wasnt sure if he'd want a copy, and he didnt have to keep them, and he put his arm around my back, and said no of course Id like them. While we were talking about a comedian to another coworker, he mentioned he thought the comedian was good because of the sexual references. He would put his hand on my shoulder occasionally. He also stuck up for me when another coworker was bad mouthing me, and told me about it. Recently he asked what time I got off twice, and I told him. It didnt down on me that he might have been wanting to do something.

 

Another male coworker mentioned the divorce took a blow to his self-esteem.

 

He's 50 and I'm 32. I understand how he feels about cheating. I was engaged for 2 years. and called it off because he cheated. I know its not the same as being commited to someone for years.

 

Im just not sure if he's lookin for friendship, or maybe a flirty friend or if i just make him feel more confident.

I asked him to go bowling, and he said he'd check his calender.
