She likes her dad's best friend
Rox, 26, from New York, asks:
Hello! I'm talking to a guy that is my dad's best friend. We've known of each other for a few years, but we were both involved with people. We've been seeing each other at ball games and dinners with my dad. We hung out alone a couple times and had sex! It was premeditated on my end. There is definitly an attraction on both ends. He told me days later that he can't have me as "a friend with benefits" because he has too much respect for my father and me. He calls a couple times a week and we see each other every now and then. But it's brief. We've agreed that men and women can't be just friends. So what's going on? There are mixed signals. Do you think he's interested?
VictorM's advice:
Mixed signals? Where? You have agreed that men and women can't be friends (when there is a sexual attraction), and he doesn't want you as friends with benefits. What's mixed about this? It sounds like he's open to two options: being in a serious relationship with you (assuming your dad would approve) or it's understood that he likes you but won't do anything about it.
Could he think that your interest in him is purely sexual? Maybe you're the one sending the mixed signals.
