Hi - It seems that reading signs is not my main skill and in the past i consistently got everything wrong ! So i would need some external advice about this before I make a new mistake.

 

We used to go out together for a while but things naturally stopped and we lose a bit of contact. Now we have exchanged some emails again and lately he said things like: "I would like very much to be there with you now" or "I would like you to be here on my couch, your head on my lap while you are reading one of your stupid books...."

 

So, is this something you say to a friend you care of or is he more interested than that. I do not want to make more mistakes this time :rolleyes:

 

Thank you !!

What is the history there? Who emailed who?Do you live far apart that he thinks going out again is not feasible? If he wants to meet you,why doesnt he ask you out?That probably means he doestn really want to meet you and get real in person;That also means he's probably just bored and was flirting with you to have some fun;He sounds a big flirt! If he hasnt asked you out, he's not really interested.To me, it's as clear as that.

 

Do you even know he's single or not?

That's an odd way to reconnect with someone....

 

Does he actually talk or is this all electrons?

"I would like very much to be there with you now"

 

Yeah I've had platonic friends say something like this. Sometimes you wish you could share an experience with a particular friend.

 

"I would like you to be here on my couch, your head on my lap while you are reading one of your stupid books...."

 

This one? No. I don't rest my head in the lap of platonic friends and they don't try to get me to do that if they are only interested in being my friend.

 

Think about it; do any of your female friends rest their head in your lap? Do you rest your head in your female friends' lap?

It is the story of my life, I have moved all around Europe during the last years and many of my friends live abroad. We do not live in the same country but I travel there very often.

 

Actually I am going in two weeks and i said if you invite me for a coffee we can catch up properly. His response: Of course I invite you for a coffee and much more if you want.

 

I am still hesitating about his intentions.

Simple test: Imagine you had a penis and he spoke with you in that manner. What would you think?

 

When I fly across the country to 'hook up' with my male friends and they 'take me out', are we getting 'much more'? :D
