do I reply to this and do I tell him?

[lou5a]

I'm seeing a guy, we aren't official yet but think we will be soon. anyway, a friend of his always likes my Facebook and Instagram posts and he got my number through a friend over a year ago. the guy I'm seeing does get a bit miffed when he likes my things.

the guy has txted me tonight asking if I am out in town. he has a gf! I don't want to reply to him and I forgot I even had his number tbh, but I feel really sneaky now Incase my guy finds out he txted me and I haven't said anything.

what do I do?

You're not 'official' - I assume that means not yet committed to each other or not prepared to let other people know that you're together.

The text said nothing other than if you are out in town (according to your OP).

Non-problem.

You've been getting a slightly hard time here, lou. I think what you did, ignore and delete, is probably the best policy. If your bf would be annoyed at his mate for being a bit of a sleaze then that's fine. If he's annoyed with you though - what everyone else said, with bells on!

thanks annie he wouldn't be annoyed at me like I said, he would just be annoyed at him especially because he has a gf!

Can I give you some advice for sorting out the "girlfriend" status thing?

Grab a felt tip and put his name on your pencil case. Add a heart if you're really serious about this.

Job done.

He's NOT your boyfriend. So whilst his mate is a shit if he's trying to cheat on HIS girlfriend, he's not a shit for having a crack at you, because you're not in a committed relationship. You're up for grabs. Fine if you're not interested, but he can ask.

Get those pencil cases graffiti'd!

My serious point: all your "but we will be soon". Sounds like you WANT to be in a relationship with your

I actually decided to tell him and feel much better now!

How did he take it?

He just laughed and said not to text back and his poor girlfriend. i definitely got myself worked up over nothing but didn't like to feel that I knew he txted me and kept quiet! glad I told him :)

Good
