This is a bit sleazy right?

One of my male friends keeps mentioning how he wishes I fancied him as he's so good in bed and is have a great time. I do not fancy him in the slightest. I will never sleep with him. Then he's been telling me when he feels horny (bleurgh). He gives me details about his sex life that I would rather not know.
Then I mentioned I was meeting another woman for a date (I'm bisexual but never followed up an interest in women before) and he's saying things like 'send me the photos.'
It's made me feel ill. I don't like that he's fetishising my sexuality and I feel uncomfortable with the oversharing.
He's been a great friend and has listened and counselled me when I've been depressed. Now I'm thinking he had an ulterior motive. It's depressing! I thought he was a real friend. I'm not judging him too harshly here, am I?

He sounds gross, I’d get rid.

You'll need to be very blunt with him, he's going to carry this horrible behaviour on otherwise.
He's only after one thing by the sounds of it.

I had a "friend" like this. A brilliant friend so I thought. Although they weren't perving it transpired in the end they wanted more than friendship, and when that wasn't going to happen, I was dropped like a hot cake. It's horrible.

Be prepared that you might get the 'nice guy' reaction - in his mind he's listened to and supported you, and now 'deserves' sex. Kindness is just a currency in his eyes and he sees you as 'in debt'

This is a big maybe though - just a possibility!

I think what made it click into place was him suggesting if I ever needed an itch scratching, he was there. Knowing I was vulnerable at the time, why would he offer sex? Taking advantage? And no, just no.

Doesn't sound like a friend to me. Cut him loose if he makes you uncomfortable.

It's not a buyt sleazy, it's really sleazy.
Is only expect it from someone really drunk.

Lots of 'em about

Babyblues052 · 18/12/2017 21:00

Stuff like this literally makes my skin crawl. How men can think women like it when the speak like this. Bleugh

He's horrible, drop him immediately.

Farontothemaddingcrowd · 18/12/2017 21:09

He's dropped. I'll probably be a wuss and do the slow fade rather than tell him why.

His behaviour is harassment. You are finding it difficult to handle the situation because he has been kind and listened to you when down and so have been laughing it off. You certainly have not reciprocated and invited this behaviour, yet he continues with the sleazy behaviour, despite you not reciprocating, because this is about power and him asserting it over you.

He's abusing the dynamic between you. He needs reporting because he seems to have targeted you when vulnerable. I think he'd do the same to another person.
