writes:I'd love some advice, please. So I've been single for 9 months after breaking up with my bf of 8 years after he cheated on me. I have not been interested in dating anyone else in that time. Last night, my best friend (f) invited me to dinner with her and one of her male friends. It was lovely. Today, he's been in touch saying he thinks I'm lovely, asking me for my phone number, asking me when I'm going to be in town again. And my friend told me he's been saying how lovely I am all day, making it obvious that he's interested in me/after me/wants to get to know me better. I'm not sure how I feel about this-I think he's out of my league for one, and secondly, we only talked for a few hours-how can he know he likes me that quickly? He's sent me a few flirty text messages since then, and I'm really flattered. I'm not sure if he's a bit of a ladies' man, and am going to ask my female friend about this as she knows him well. I guess my confidence was knocked by my ex, and I'm just not sure why on earth he'd be interested in me, so need some advice on what to do. Thanks. x

 Have you ever heard an old Greek saying from the philosopher Plato? "You can learn more about a person in an hour of play, than in a year of conversation". Don't think it impossible that he knows he likes you after such a short time.
If you're interested, stick with him and see where it goes. Good Luck, I hope it turns out well.
Don't let your ex affect your peace of mind. You shouldn't feel any less about yourself simply because you found the wrong person. Let this man be your ego boost, after all, he does think "you're lovely".
I hope that helps.

 Well, think are you ready for another relationship or are you just looking for some fun? If he turns out to be a ladies man just keep it as a fling. However, if he's not then it could turn into a relationship. Flirt back and let him know you're interested too..Find out a little more about him before you enact, I'm sure you're friend wouldn't try to set you up with a ladies man. Good luck and this will give you back that confidence you seemed to have lost!
