I dated this guy for about a month or so and we were really kind of intense--he was oddly expressive with personal thoughts, personal concerns, etc. Had an amazing spark between us. We never had sex, but came very close. It kind of fizzled in a weird way...My best guess is that we stopped seeing each other because he was freaked by how few guys I have slept with (thought that I would read way too much into it? I had just broken up with a long-term boyfriend). Anyway, he recently emailed me, asking me a lot of questions about what I was doing, how different things were going in my life, am I dating anyone, said he'd been dating someone for a couple of months and it was going well, and then continues on to ask me more questions! He had told me in the past that he couldn't just be friends with me because he's too attracted to me. My guy friends say that he's trying to make me jealous to try to get me to do something, but that just sounds strange! Is he still interested?!? If so, what does he expect that I'm going to do if he tells me that he's dating someone else?

VictorM's advice:

There isn't a mentally stable guy out there who would be turned off by you having too few lovers. If the opposite was true, if you had many lovers, I could see this turning off some guys, but too few? No way!

The mention of dating someone is a common tactic by guys to provoke a reaction and to solicit information from you. If he told you about his dating life, he's expecting you to tell him about yours. And he's hoping for a sign that you're disappointed with the news.

Is it possible that the way you two drifted away he has the feeling that you're the one that pushed him away?

Not having a better picture of why you drifted away, it's hard to tell if your guy friends are right. But if he can't be friends because you're too attractive, I can't imagine that his email is just a friendly gesture. I don't know his true motive, but it sounds to me like he's still interested in you.

I'm betting that he's thinking that you're the great one that got away and he wants another shot.
