Does he like me?strange messages?

One of my male friends keeps texting me saying how he 'misses me', and keeps asking 'how i am' and how he keeps 'thinking of me' and just keeps sending me strange messages?? I don't flirt back because i dont fancy him. I just send him normal messages like "Im ok, how are you" type messages. He's got a girlfriend as well. I don't understand what he's playing at??? Is this normal? or maybe im getting the wrong end of the stick? what do you think?:confused:

not sure what hes playing at if he has a girlfriend, i guess all isn't well with him and his girlfriend, but if your not interested sometimes you gotta be cruel and get to the point and actually tell him. but by all means be polite and ask hi how are you

Yeh your right. I'm trying to be cruel but trying not be too harsh at the same time. He's a really nice person, but i just think its weird that he's sending me these messages while he's got a gf.I don't think it's right.I think he's a bit of a player???

i dunno, i think he likes the idea of having more than ONE girlfriend. I think he likes the female attention. But it makes me feel like crap because i only like him as a mate and he keeps trying to flirt with me....... i cant really explain it. I don't really want to say anything to him,because i don't want to seem bothered.
well not a good idea to flirt him especailly if he likes 2 or 3 girls on the go you;d be 2nd best and you'd get hurt but yes it does seem he likes the attention, but as i said probably best be honest with him tell him you only like him as a mate.

i wish i knew your identity:rolleyes:

i was going to say to just reply matter-of-factly, but then i thought of the guy. he's probably confused, and thinking you're sending out different messages, so a quick, blunt, painless explanation of how things are is probably in order, for both of your sakes.

Yeh your right. Thats what i've been doing, just sending texts of how things are..etc???....He still won't leave me alone. I have to say things like "Oh **** my fone battery is running out....chat to u later etc", just so he'll go away.
I just think its weird because his gf seems really nice, i have a feeling he's a bit insecure of his gf coz she's really really pretty and get lots of attention so i think he feels he needs female attenrion as well maybe???....i dunno, i don't really wanna talk to him about it. God why can't people sort their own relationships out without dragging other ppl in it....:eek:

It's what I do. He fancies the **** out of you.

If you fancy him, text back; otherwise he will simply think you're too out of his league.

You do that to girls when you've got a gf???
i Don't fancy him at all. i can't trust someone like that. We're really good friends though. I managed to stop having any contact with him for about two months thinking he'll bugger off coz i dont really meet up with him much. Hoping he'd get the message but then he text me yesterday with all this 'why arnt you texing me', 'i miss you', crap. arrrghhhh. i think i might change my number.
nah this calls for a bit of textual fun

get one of his mates to change ur number on his phone to his gf's number. the result'll be jokes :smile:

Just wondering, how long you have known him and how do you know him? I know someone in the same situation!

Usually if i hear about this kinda stuff, i just think "grow up....thats life." But i have to admit its really annoying...lol!!
I think i'll just ignore him....im sure he'll get the message...

You got to confront him about it. Or a better idea is to talk to his friend about this.

its also a good idea to ask "how are you and your girlfriend" and see his response.

Did he used to be like this (like when he hangs out with you at college/work/parties) or has he just become like this suddenly.
Hey any updates to this?
I used to have a friend like that. He had a girlfriend, and never considered cheating on her, but enjoyed the female attention and thought he 'played' them and could 'get onto' the girls he was friends with, etc.

Ignore him. It's just an ego boost for him.
Has the OP meet his girlfriend before/seen pics of her
