My friend (Tom) has told me he feels we are growing a connection but he wants to take things slow. Now, I know he still carries emotional baggage from previous relationships so I don't want to be a rebound.
I agree there is a connection there. He doesn't know I am talking to other men and going on a date tomorrow. None of this is his business as I won't put my life on hold for a man.
We went out with some friends on Saturday. There is another guy (Neil) there who likes me too and was jealous I was talking to Tom. Yesterday Tom rang me as he loves psychology and was psycho analysing Neil's behaviour. Tom and Neil are both jealous of each other as they both possess great traits.
The problem is last night I have dreamt about Neil, I think this is because I find him attractive too but I know he wouldn't put time limits on things. Neil has messaged me saying he looks forward to seeing me out again and that he will always be going out.
I find it odd that Tom would plant a seed like that knowing full well that they both don't like each other and he has competition now.
Tom also told me how a woman was rubbing his arms and kept saying how nice he was. He said he wasn't interested in her. I thought I saw that happen but I tried not to look as I don't want to come across as controlling. It's as though Tom is trying to make me jealous saying he is desirable too as he knows Neil wants me.
