I don't want to confront him and make a big deal about it. I just blocked him.
I guess I don't like to be unfriendly and that gets in the way of my keeping firmer boundaries when I am stressed out.
Glad I brought this to the forum and thank you, all, you really helped me. I am so grateful.

Sorry I misread the emailing you about visiting when his wife is away as hitting on you, and also his being flirty which I think you mentioned. You will know best, trust your instinct on this.
I do believe men and men can be friends but if there is flirting then that is different IMO. I am very careful not to flirt with male friends and actually deliberately talk in a very practical down to earth way with them if that makes sense - best way I can describe it is communicating (often with gross humour) so there are absolutely no romantic vibes.
You come across on here as being a vey friendly open type of person and I totally get that you prefer not to create conflict - I am similar. I use humour a lot to manage relationships/friendships - in your situation I may have been tempted to say something like "Hey, how come you only invite me over when Betty is away? If I didn't know better I'd think you were hitting on me" But that's just me. You know what works for you best.
