6 months ago I gave up all hope of nabbing Mr.Married to his job/too busy for a relationship but recently it seems he has taken up more of a personal interest in my life. Who am I seeing? Any one catching my interest? Stating that I shouldn't date anyone and just focus on myself. Or even just randomly popping in to see how I'm doing or how my day was. OK, now I'm confused. What happened to unavailable? Is he interested and waiting for me to make the first move? Why is he only showing interest AFTER I give up and settle for friendship?

If so, perhaps since he is married (at least what you called him!), he felt uneasy, but now that you have given up and settled for friendship, he's much more comfortable and just is interested in you - NOT smitten, but just want to be good friends.
