Question - (20 January 2009) 4 Answers - (Newest, 20 January 2009)
A female United States age 30-35, anonymous writes:

Alright there is this guy, he's my friend and we talk online sometimes. He's always been nice to me but lately when we're talking we'll be very honest w/each other and he'll tell me that he thinks im beautiful and i have nice eyes and a nice butt and a great personality ect. But he has a girlfriend he says he loves. So is it possible to love one person and like another? or is he just being a nice honest friend? What do u think?

He told you, that you were beautiful. And he told you that any guy would be lucky to have you. But take note, here's the imporatant line. He said "hes sure you are going to find a great guy." What is that telling you?

He is saying, "I like you, you're nice to look at, I notice things about you but.....I'm taken-sorry". Pleeease, see this for what it is and don't get all swoony and crush after another girl's guy. Any guy that is attached, is off limits! You know that. And let's theorize..would if you were able to get him away from her. What would you end up with? You'd get a guy who'd be 'observant and flirty' with another female, when your back was turned. Think about what he's really doing here, sweety...

This is verified as being by the original poster of the question

well he has told me several times that im beautiful and that any guy would be lucky to have on and that hes sure im going to find a great guy. But what struck me as odd was that the last time we talked he wanted to prove he was observant and said that my eyes are brown but are hazel when i wear green, that he can tell when my smile is real and when its not and that when its real my face glows and lights up the room and knew the position of my birthmark. I just didnt think most guys were that observant unless hes interested. Then again, he's been different than any other guy that ive met before so i could be wrong.

Without actually reading your messages back and forth it is hard to judge but it sounds like he's flirting with you but has made it clear nothing will happen, be careful with this one, make sure that you don't write messages you think will upset his girlfriend. It is possible to love one and like another but do you really want to settle for being liked by a guy who loves someone else?

As long as you don't get your hopes up and you don't do anything to jeopardise his current relationship then this will stay a bit of harmless fun, why not enjoy it?

He has told you he loves her and he likely means it. He likes you but as a friend. He also likes to be a wee bit of a flirt with you. Why a flirt, too? A lot of people do it for reasons of 'ego boosting' a bit because it makes them feel good. I am thinking if you were to observe him with other females, aside from his gf...you may see some similarities in his behaviors towards them as well. The bottom line is, he has a gf he loves. She comes first in his heart. If I were you, I'd use my head and not read much into anything, he's saying to you. Still be friends with this fellow if you want to..but open your mind and heart to someone else. Good luck and save your heartfelt feelings for a single, nice guy...someone else who can offer you something rock solid and substantial.
