Relationships

To meet up with "ex" from casual relationship?

I was sleeping with a man in a casual sort of situation for 4-5 months, from before DD.
I really fell for him despite it being more sex than a relationship, and while he told me a lot about himself, had a lot of deep conversations and was very caring and romantic, he is very much a 'player' in reputation, good looking, good job, and from a very rich family-all in all used to being able to get whatever he wants, hasn't had a relationship in the 3 years I've known him.

We stopped seeing eachother when he moved away for a while but he moved back a few months later. He asked me to meet him then but by this point I had started a relationship with DDs dad(ex+twat).

We have kept in touch over text and occasional phone calls. He asks how DD is and chats about life/things in general, but he is still very flirty and suggestive a lot of the time.

He asked if I want to meet for a catch up, with a comment about wanting to show off his gym results, and I said i couldn't leave DD for long enough yet but that it'd be good to meet for coffee. He said that was great and he'd love to meet her.

I'm just not sure if i want to open up old feelings by meeting up, I still care about him but know that he definitely isn't the type to settle down.
I'm really not sure if he's just after sex (which he could get elsewhere easily) or genuinely being a friend.

He's after sex, almost definitely. I would avoid if you have been down that road and got hurt before, especially as you say he isn't the type to settle down.

On the other hand, if you could do with a leg-over and ego boost yourself, it might not be such a bad thing. At least you know he isn't a maniac etc. But I wouldn't be going into a situation with him thinking that it could be anything else so if you can handle that, go for it.
