Mr. Pisces showed up at my house unexpectedly again (joked and laughed about not stalking me - my house is not on his way home though and I sensed it's not the first time he's driven by to see if I'm home). He dropped the tailgate and we sat and talked, then he put his arm around me and kissed me. I told him I couldn't, he doesn't have time and I miss him too much. I reminded him that we're not in a relationship and it is hard on me for him to make such advances. He agreed, said his schedule was not fair to me. I told him I need more, I need commitment and I'm seeking forever - he said he would be a bad husband 'cause he works too much. Somewhere in the midst of all this, he asked if I was seeing someone, I told him yeah, over the past 2 weeks I have been out on a number of dates with a certain someone. He said he was happy for me, wants me happy, kissed me and he wrapped his arms around me. He said he would have been totally heartbroken if he saw me out someplace (or even at my home) with another man (in other words he was glad he asked) - recall in a previous post the last time he just showed up he said he was hoping he would find me with another man so he could stop calling me. "Why?", I asked of being heartbroken, he said because he cares (despite not having been interested in seeing me since Feb). But, then he joked about 'playing house' and started rubbing my ring finger (first the right hand, then said, "oh wrong hand" and went for my left). He even told me he loved me at some point and he was so glad to have met me, but nothing about wanting to be with me.

I do care deeply for this man and think of him daily; I miss him, I miss his sense of humor, I miss his tender touch, kisses/hugs out of the blue, his love of animals, his intelligence, his creativity, his sensitivity, his support and understanding and his confidence (albiet he is arrogant, don't like so much). That being said, there is a part of me that questions the prospects of a stable future with him and he jokingly has always played that off as not an option anyway.

I have no question about the behaviors per se, but feel free to comment and give input...
