Chicken_flavored_eggs answered Monday November 14 2005, 10:48 pm: He is screwing with you. If you two were "close" and then you don't hear from him for two months, he is just not that into you. He was willing to be sexual with you but nothing more. That is a shame since you have been friends for more than 5 years and because noone deserves to be treated that way. It bothers me that he didn't tell you he was having a daughter before you were close. That for me alone is a deal breaker. Especially if I considered him a friend. What probably happened is that he thought it was a friends with benefits thing while you thought it was something different. It does not make what he did okay, but it may explain it a little. He has been your friend and that makes it harder. But you should not be wasting your time on him. You should be putting your effort into someone who cares for you. Keep him as a friend and that is it. Don't respond to the flirting or take it as anything other than superficial. He had his chance and he blew it. He doesn't deserve a second chance.
