Why does Scorpio guy have to be so confusing.

A few months back I posted about a Scorpio, that had liked and befriended me at work only for it to sour for a few years. Now we are friends again we did not discuss our issues just kinda moved on .

Long story short I told him that liked him and his reply was oh I can't believe that you would like me , thank you. Then went on to say he is not ready to date because of his career and that he feels lost right now but that we should go out more and see each other more .

We went out only once after, on which he told me he trust me and kept touching me and attempted to hold hands , even asked me to dance I said no I could see that his mood changed and he quickly ended the evening .He has texted me everyday since it's been 3 months now .

My issue is that sometimes his txt are weird one min he talks a lot and tells me about his life and the direction he wants to go then the next moment he will txt one word responses like "yup "even if he was the one to make contact . I find he txt me when is at work most times is he just killing them?

Also I will always call him cute nicknames he will just say hey how's it going , only 3 times has he said lovely or pretty both were kinda awkward just to look at, though he has started sending me cute emoticons which is kinda shocking because is not into those kinds of things . When I stop calling him cute names and just respond normally he becomes very dry. He opens up alit about some of his issues and tells me random things about his life.

However I just feel like maybe I'm giving him a ego boost or maybe he is bored and that's why he keeps talking to me. He makes me very confused because he said he wanted no relationship and doesn't want to take advantage yet it kinda feels like he is sometimes.

Any advice would be helpful thank you in advance!

trust yourself. if you FEEL he's using you as an ego boost, you're probably right. if he makes an effort to prove you wrong, then all the better. does this guy have a leo moon btw?

That's just the issue sometimes it appears like you is trying. I don't if he has a Leo moon or not I know he was born Oct 25 if that helps at all ?
