writes:I planned a trip to Florida by train and I met a wonderful man who happens to work for Amtrak. The whole ride he was slowly talking to me asking me if I was okay and if my son was too.. At first I thought okay this is excellent customer service and Then after a while had requested to switch my ticket to a sleeper car, but then the conversation turned smoothly into personal convo, we just about talked everytime I went to the restroom and would stop in the vestibule lol..then I heard him say to me that he would love to be married again and be happy and that who I'm with would be afraid because he would take me away...Whoa that's strong for a total stranger, but he doesn't strike me as wierd in anyway for a 18 hour train ride.At the very end 2 minutes before I got off the train we exchanged phone numbers and said our goodbyes. I'm sure he meets a lot of beautiful women on the train or he may not but I didn't initiate conversation or say much at all to him so why was he so attracted( I am very good looking but humble), the only thing is he lives in Florida because he wanted to be closer to him kids and I live in PA..For some reason ive become really attracted to him in just a short time, which is odd cause I've been through this so many times and usually just brush it off, I'm not sure what to do, should I stop talking to him because we live so far apart, or just keep him as a text buddy and try to let my feelings of liking him go or see where things might go? Help.....

 It's almost sounds romantic, but I agree with jmc930.. Red flags are all over the place.
How sure are you that he is even divorced? Honestly, if you have his info I would do a background check on him before going any further then simple texting..
Maybe I'm just jaded.

Cutexomami69 is verified as being by the original poster of the questionHe didn't say that he would marty me personally we were talking about relationships and he said he is divorced but would marry again, I said I'm not married and don't plan to anytime soon. I'm not in love with him or anything and I'm sure he isn't with me, and I am not vulnerable or easy to talk to trust me! But I'll enjoy the conversation and getting first class Amtrak tickets lol...! When it ends so be it!

reader, anonymous, writes (14 May 2011): Seriously, after just chatting with you on the train, he insinuates that he could marry you? That sounds creepy, pushy and strange.
Perhaps you feel so attracted to him because he sounds as if he'd be committed to you and serious about your relationship. Perhaps he chatted you up because he perceived you as being vulnerable -- traveling alone with your young son.
Either way, he went very far, very fast, and that would be a big red flag to me.
If you want to text him, you can, but keep your eyes open for other things he says that are sort of off-color or odd. Don't give him your address until you're positive that he isn't a creep. You have to do what's best for you and to protect your son.
