Do I fancy this man?

[trilogyofjuniper]

I honestly can't work out if I'm attracted to this guy or if I'm just flattered that he fancies me. By the way, I'm not at all interested in having a relationship with him. I really love my DH and wouldn't choose this other man over him, even if as I was single.

I teach a linguistics course privately at home, so this guy has 90mins per week. I noticed from about the second session that he found me attractive and he's sent a few flirtatious texts and emails. My replies have been business-like, just to make sure that he (or anyone else reading the messages) couldn't accuse me of leading him on.

So, why do I hope I'll get a flirty text and look forward to our sessions so much? Why am I disappointed when I have a day with no email from him? I fancy him, don't I??

Not necessarily - you maybe just be enjoying an ego boost. It's nice to think a member of the opposite sex finds you attractive. Enjoy smelling the flowers but don't pick them

You like the attention? Well I do...
Sometimes it what happens
We like the attention of other men but its not our real life

I'd be really careful, you have a business relationship and don't want that tarnished. Sounds like you fancy him but it also sounds a bit sad if you are disappointed when you don't get a flirty text, esp when you are supposed to be happily married!

Been in the same place as you OP. It's the attention you crave not the person and that you feel happy that someone is thinking about your like that.

keep yourself and your business safe. Also I know you're not but by stringing him along in a way you're stopping him finding someone single!. Nip it in the bud
