Question - (4 August 2010) 7 Answers - (Newest, 4 August 2010)
A female United Kingdom age 41-50, anonymous writes:

Hello all, I've been chatting to this guy online for a few weeks now. We've had very good chats etc. On Monday we spoke on the phone for the first time for about 2h. I then got the following email:

Hello.. going to bed but thought I should say good night...it was good to talk it was just like talking to an old friend... take care talk soon x

In the past he says things like "I'm starting to like you", "I'm glad for this site cos I got to know you" etc etc.

I'm a bit baffled on the "talking to an old friend" bit. Any suggestions?

Thanks in advance!

dirtball agony auntI say this is a really good thing. It shows a level of comfort beyond the tenure of your relationship. He's into you. Now, what are you going to do from here?

I think he meant that it felt easy talking to you, meaning that he could be himself, even thou u havnt met. I would take it as a good thing because you know communication in relationships is important so if u guys can talk so comfortably to each other its a positive thing.

Illithid agony auntMy fiance and I started off as friends of such immediate connection that within weeks of meeting, it was like we had been best friends from birth. It was eerie... this instant and powerful understanding. That bond grew and friendship became love. It does happen sometimes.

Just make sure you flirt at least a little before you fall into the Friend Zone.

Anadin agony auntwell its good that he says this, not neccessarily a bad thing, but it could mean one of two things:

he likes you as a friend, or he is genuinely interested in you :)

its still early days so dont worry mucha bout it, and if you do get into a relationship, you are really good friends anyway- thats the way i look at it atleast :P

gabby8694 agony auntBy saying that it's like talking to an old friend, he must mean that he feels like he can tell you anything and feels ocmfortable talking to you. x

Have you guys ever even met?? Umm...if I liked a guy I wouldn't like it if he said that to me, to be honest. But if you guys have never even met, how would he know to what extent he does or doesn't like you?? It is hard to say that you like someone if you have only talked on the phone or chatted online and never even met. If that's the case, I would set up some sort of meeting arrangement with him and test out the waters then. You got to look into their eyes, see their expressions, touch them, smell them, feel them...these things are necessary in order to assess whether or not you like someone...so if you haven't met yet, I would not take what he said too personally...meet him first and then worry what he says.
