This is an ongoing saga so I will condense it! I met this Virgo man at the gym. We hit it off straightaway, teasing each other, he flirted like mad with me, gradually I began to flirt back (I'm a bit slow on the uptake - I never think anyone fancies me!) and we had this wonderful kind of friendship. I'm married but the last year has been hell. He has a partner who he always moans about (but I know he loves her really). So anyway, I began to get feelings for him, I told him, saying I'm not after you, I don't want anything from you but I can't stop thinking about you. I just had to tell him. I wanted to be honest with him. He said I only see you as a good friend. (But he treats me as more than this - lots of people assume we are a couple!) So I said are you saying you aren't attracted to me in any way shape or form?
His answer was really obtuse! He said, would it change anything if I said I was? I said yes, it would help me to understand why you flirt with me. He said you are really pretty, you have a lovely smile. I look forward to seeing you and if you're not there I miss your smile. When I stopped going to classes at the gym, he said he was so upset he thought about packing it all in. He said, if we fell in love, where would it go? We are both with other people. And I agree. But I feel like he's not being honest about his feelings. I've said how I feel. He won't tell me how he feels! Do all Virgo men hide their feelings? Is he attracted to me? It's so hard to work him out. I have never cheated on my husband - I suppose I just feel like I need to know what is going on in this man's head!
He said all he could say. If there are other people involved we are definitely more reserved and careful. From what he said, it's clear he is very much into you. Calling you a "good friend" helps him to feel he is being decent toward all parties indirectly involved.
Thank you SV. What an amazing reply. I feel like you have summed it up. He is a really good man. We have both agreed to stay friends. I still have feelings for him but I won't act on them. I can't help how I feel. He really is so lovely. I'm glad he's in my life! It's so nice to hear an objective view. Thank you :-)
I agree, even though you got your answer from sv. He definitely said everything he could say without saying much, i guess he is just being cautious and analyzing you as we Virgos tend to do.
You're welcome. I've been in a similar situation. It's likely that while he doesn't love his partner, she might love him and he has made promises to her. Some signs would instantly break the connection and go with who they love but it's a complication decision for a virgo. I know it was the hardest decision I ever had to make. My suggestion, keep it light. If you both will feel the same as time passes, hard decisions will be made. If it fizzes out, no harm done.
Yes it's better to keep it fun. I saw him last night and we had such a good laugh. He makes me so happy. SIGH. !!! More than anything else, I love his mind. He is so clever, very quick-witted. And his eyes gleam like they're full of mischief!
Thanks both of you. This has really helped! Time will tell I guess :-)
