reader, anonymous, writes (11 December 2008): He's suggested that you meet publicly because it feels like a safer way to meet with you without getting entangled with the past relationship you shared. He probably would find that too painful and awkward. Doesn't mean he doesn't want to see you though, so don't feel bad. Prepare yourself that he might have moved on and so doesn't want to hurt your feelings, or he might well be interested again but wants to 'go in gently' and scope things out. Don't load yourself up with too many expectations and you'll be fine. You may even find that he is your 'ex' for a very good reason. Good luck!

 It sounds like he is simply being wary of you. He may think you are trying to get back together, and going out as a group is his way of letting you know that he's not interested in trying again.
