We lived together for 3yrs, and I had not spoken to him at the time for 9mths. He had been out of a bad relationship of a few mnths(she cheated). He suffers from social anxiety disorder. I texted him a mildly flirty message they other day." hey polar bear(my nick name for him was bear)it's not fit for man nore beast out today. stay warm" It was snowing bad and he plows for the twp. He text back U too. He's a painfully shy man of 35. My question is am I taking this the right way that he may want to reconnect? He would never have the nerve to just come out and say it. I had to ask him out after coming onto him for 2mths in the begining cause he never had a girlfriend before. He could never overcome his shyness to do it. Even this other girl had to ask him. I don't want to screw this up, or move too fast. Any suggestions would be greatly appriciated.

I wouldn't take it as anything yet. I understand that he is painfully shy. I dated a guy like that and I read into things too much, it blew up in my face. GIve it some more time and see if he warms up to you any. Maybe send a few more flirty texts and see how he responds. If they are positive, then maybe ask him out for coffee or to take your daughter somewhere like Chuck E Cheese. Hope this helps. Good luck.
