Mostly because he doesn't know what he wants and I wonder if he did, would he have the courage to do something about it. You know a man loves you when he professes it. To let all the other guys that were gonna try to get with you to back up. But here's what it is. Is this the kind of person/relationship you deserve? If not why waste your time? Take a look at yourself find out what's good about you that's all that matters. Funny how guys change their mind when all of a sudden your not chasing them! *hint* [ NikkiD's advice column | Ask NikkiD A Question ]

He's shopping around.
He doesn't want anyone to know he's seeing you, because he's afraid that you may not be a sure thing.
That way, if things don't work, he's still "available".
Sometimes, men do stupid things like that.
Worse, he could still be seeing someone he met after the two of you broke up, and he doesn't want to jeopardize that relationship (also because he's afraid).
Mind you, maybe I'm wrong. The best thing to do is gather up your courage and ask him. If he doesn't give you a straight answer, then it could be time to move on. [ Eldritch's advice column | Ask Eldritch A Question ]
