Me and a guy that I have been friends with for about a year have been FWB for the last month or so, we are both seeing other people and have been totally open about that and talk about the other people we're seeing.

But recently he has been a little bit different towards me,, after we hooked up last week he hit me up straight away on facebook when he got home and was chatting to me loads and again on friday night when i got in...at one point he told me that if i needed help with anything to just ask him...which is odd for him.

He's also started texting me back within 10-20 mins of me texting him and at least 2 x's on any message which he never did before.

We chatted a bit on tuesday on fb and I had to go out so said see you later and went. He sent me a fb message later that night saying he hated facebook chat cause he wasn't getting my messages straight away and wasn't sending any of his to me, when I asked him what he tried to send me he just went offline.

Since then whenever i have gone online he seems to jump offline and really hasn't been using facebook very much at all. I gave it a couple of days and sent him a message saying that I had noticed him doing that and is there a problem? He said not at all everything was fine he was just really busy working ETC,( which I do tend to believe because he said last weekend and tuesday that he was trying to sort work stuff out). Then he asked me how I was which he never does.

I know that he is seeing/hooking up with other people and there is another guy that i'm seeing as well but I am confused about how I feel about him. Does it sound like he's become more interested in me?

I spoke to a friend of mine about the facebook thing and she thinks that he's trying to get me to call/text him more often cause I only ever really contact him on facebook.

Any thoughts/advice would be helpful...i'm rubbish at this sort of thing lol.

I'm a gemini 10th June 84, he's a Cancer 4th July 87.

I know too well that Cancer guys (at least the one I'm hung up on right now) can actually be very sensitive and have really big hearts, which makes them vulnerable when they like someone and can prevent them from making the first move directly, but you also can't be too aggressive with them so as not to scare them off... So it's a fine line to walk lol. They're not above showing they're interested but they won't show everything at once and will run back into their shells until they know its safe to come out lol.

It sounds like he is starting to have feelings for you, but is testing the waters so to speak to find out if you feel the same way. So it's really up to you, if you can handle the inconsistency I think it's worth it with Cancers imo. If you think you have feelings for him too or could see it becoming something more then try to find a way to let him know that maybe in a subtle way if possible. Don't be like me and realize 4 years later that you really do want something more but were too scared to say so directly from the beginning lol. But of course if you don't have feelings for him then don't get yourself into a situation you don't want to be in either. FWB can be difficult, usually one person or the other ends up developing feelings, so just try to stay honest with each other no matter what you decide...

Thank you so much for the advice Firemoon.

You are right we do need to be honest with each other. I'm just a bit worried about it affecting our friendship, I lost a really good friend before cause we got our feelings wrong for each other and I don't want that to happen again.

What do you think is the best way to bring this up without making him hide in his shell?

I have a habbit of being a bit blunt sometimes lol

if he is playing games, just dont contact him wait for him to contact you. im a cancer and am usually the pursuer. we are cardinal signs, so trust me, if we like you, we are going after you HARD. we know what we want.

No problem boop! What RAS said is also true, he could be playing games...

I guess a little bluntness can't hurt lol, maybe just say you've noticed this or that and ask if he's starting to want something more from the relationship... That way the air will be cleared and it will be on him at that point to be honest and direct if he is trying to play games or is sending mixed signals...

But I'm really no one to be giving relationship advice lol so I guess just trust your instincts and I wish you the best of luck
