pisces advice please?

There's this pisces guy I work with, he's VERY shy! He's different to most guys I know, sensitive, daydreamer etc he's 24 yrs old, I'm a 24 year old gemini, the boy is so mysterious its doing my head in but at the same time I like it!!! We text a lot, we've askd eachuva intimate questions, then he'll seem off! He's dropped in convo that he's nt looking for a relationship and I get the impression he's been hurt! I have just came out of a relationship of 5 yrs! And he's been there for me thru it! We went out for a work thing and we we're drunk, he held my hand, cuddled me etc, while drunk I asked him to kiss me and he kept giggling and givin me playful little pecks! The next day told me he holds all his girl mates hands! But he tells me about other girls he thinks are hot. He hasn't been with no 1 for 3 yrs. He's told me I'm attractive, I thought maybe I shud back off an not txt him but then he will text me when I don't? We txt till 3 - 4 am nearly every night. Are we just in the friends zone?

Anyone?

I guess what stands out for me is 3 things... he's nt looking for a relationship, he talk to you about other females he feel are hot and he holds all his girl mates hands which means friendship.

I have a pet peeve about women that allow men that specifically say they don't want relationships to tie up her time. If you want a relationship he's not it but if you want a friendship with a few extra benefits such as cuddling, hand holding and peck kissing then he's your guy.

I guess you have to sit down and evaluate what you want and how much of yourself willing to give to a guy that doesn't want what you want and reassert some boundaries to protect yourself from chasing a man that's unavailable.

If your going to be his friend, set a few boundaries, limit text messaging, instead of texting all day and night, limit that to a specific number or text or cut him off at a certain time, you have to begin to cut the chord more for yourself than for him, he's already sure about how far he is willing to allow himself to go so no matter how much the amount of time you give to him your still friend zoned another boundary can be no kissing, no hand holding and no cuddling especially if all those things make you feel more than friendship because really friends don't do that with one another.
