Around 6 weeks ago i was seeing bloke from work for a short time but he had some problems and said he really liked me but felt he would let me down as he has slight depression and has good and bad days and is still getting over his ex. Anyway we stopped seeing each other things where awkward but have been better over the last few days. He now comes in my office again have spoke on phone, texted alittle and emailled. My flatmate is away so i thought invite him round like you would a friend as he was asking questions about house and that...

So i sent email saying you are more than welcome to pop over tonight. he then replied your place sounds nice is your flatmate away? I say yeah, if you want to come over i will get a bottle, you can bring some clothes there is plenty of room (meaning spare room), then i got back better not, dont want to let you down again, then i just put dont be silly, there is nothing to let down. Then he just said i know, thanks for the invite, but playing golf, hey maybe some other time (he put more than that but thats the brief version, all emails had kisses on and keep calling me hun, he never usually does.

Anyway basically, what was that all about, it was like he was going to say yes than did not, i feel he was looking for invite then when he got one backed off, i dont understand the letting me down, if you like someone just have some fun with them and see how it goes...anyway have i been blown out or is this bloke still too confused????? I dont want to wreck any friendships as we work together so i just put back, cool enjoy golfing, just like you would a friend, i do think i like him a little more but i know you cant make someone like you either...Help????
