I have tried to reach out to my "friend." He has been to my mom's house for supper. I have invited him to my place with the family, and by himself, but he has not made himself available to come. He asked me questions that indicated interest, and he still complements me, but he clearly has other female friends he is checking out. It's like we ladies are supposed to let him check us out while he makes up his mind. He made a comment some time ago that he does not know who to marry. I do not want to be part of a group of women that he choses from. I think that that is demeaning.

Also, it seems like he is uncertain about how to approach me. We actually talked about this (how I liked to be approached) because he asked.

My gut feeling is that he does not know what he wants. I do not wish to hold my breath, meanwhile. He admits that he is not really good at courtship and dating, but, he seems more comfortable around other ladies than me. If I had done more dating when I was younger, maybe I would understand this, but, right now "I don't get it."

I do not like guessing and wondering...
