So this guy has been a good friend for about a year and half now. I'll call him John. He's in his early 30's. Nothing has happened between us, although we've always had a chemistry/spark. I went through a very difficult breakup last year and John did as well shortly before me. We flirt a lot and have had some serious discussions about our pasts. I dated another guy briefly a couple months ago and John seemed to get really jealous. After I broke it off with that guy John began texting me a lot, calling me, and then we even went out for drinks a couple nights ago.

 

Today, however, he texted a bunch of our mutual friends talking about how hot this other girl we know is. I definitely feel a connection with him, but I'm also weary. I have a tendency for falling for commitment-phobes and I don't want to fall in that same pattern again. He claims he's not one, but I'm starting to wonder if he likes me only when he can't have me.

Should I stay away? Any advice?

To me, he sounds like he's mad about you and talking about other women is a method of possibly making you jealous. I know my mind works similarly if I really like someone as preverse as it sounds

If you're "trying to get a read on him"...

 

He's not interested.
