Question
Hello, well I have a couple of questions for you...well to start I'm talkin to this guy that I use to date 6yrs ago. I was looking for him and he was looking for me so after 6yrs of looking I gave up and that very next day he wrote me a email online. And we have been talking for the past couple of months. Well one day he hurt my feelings because he was sorta being stand offish a little cold,and sorta rude to me.Well it made me mad so I told him something and before you know it we are in a "tiff" well we got over it and we are talking again,he instant messages me now and he isnt rude to me at all. But before our tiff he told me that he still has feelings for me because of our past,and that he enjoys chatting with me,and he wants me to come and see him. But after our little tiff I confronted him about him having feelings for me and he told me that he didnt want to talk about it because he didnt feel like thinking right now. Well i would like to know first off how do I get him to open up to me about his feelings for me or for us, I have already told him that I'm so happy that I'm chatting with him and that I still do have feelings for him and that I have missed him so much. And also how do I let him know that I'm attracted to him and I want him and want to be with him without making myself look cheap or easy. I pretty much need help on everything hahaha its been a while a long while since I have been down this path. I have not seen him in person yet because I have not been able to get over where he lives,he has said though that maybe we should get together one day and play pool. I'm just really confused because I dont know if he wants me for a friend or for something more or if he is just looking for a booty call, I dont want him to play me of course. I'm just not sure if he is trying to tell me the things I wanna hear just to get me in bed which I'm not like that anyway he would have to work way harder and way longer haha,I'm just confused please help thank you  

Answer
where's the confusion? there's no doubt getting inside your panties is a goal---the question is, is it the ONLY goal?..forget all the smooth talk, it's the behavior that counts; why not suggest that he come to YOU, or that he meet you half way?; also, make sure the distance thing is such that it doesn't prevent seeing each other every week, if you did reconnect favorably..
