I finally found a friend, we have been chatting, talking online. He met me for the first time on Mother's Day. First time he came, about two months ago, I hadn't heard him knocking, I didn't know he would come, so we hadn't met yet. He drove maybe one hour for meeting me. He apparently only wants friendship with me. He is 6 years younger than I am. While visiting us, he did not show any interest in me (I mean didn't say anything that I could understand he was), but he stared a lot at me, sometimes it looked like he couldn't take his eyes away from me, following me from the sight when I was going from a room to another for instance, and his body language was the one of an interested man. I did NOT want to date anyone, really, but I realized I am interested in this man. I am not going to date another one if I cannot have this one. If I cannot have him to be interested in me, well, I'll go back to searching for more friends, just for friendship. I talked to my brother, and also to my male friends, they told me to take down my son's Dad's pictures, etc.. So, I did it, because I understand that when coming to my home, a man cannot feel like I can make any place for a new man in my life. Last week, I thought about what I really wanted deep inside of me, and I also decided to make my life again. Some friend said I probably did shy this man away from me. I explained to this new friend that I got a talk with my brother and male friends, and that they told me they would feel there is no place in my life for another man if all of my late Husband's pictures and else were still here. I said to this new friend, all was taken down, stored away, and that I was ready to date again, and that I took off everything for him. I emailed him, I tried to call him. He has no computer at home, so it is hard for him to email me back from his work, but he usually did a little. But he has a phone, and he won't call, and I only get his full voicemail, and he won't return my calls either, since it's a cellular, he knows when I called him. Why does he sound UNinterested in me, while his body language, and his staring proved all the contrary??? He is a good looking man, searching for a LTR, he has a good sense of humor, is modern with old-fashioned manners. He is a great man, and nice. Still, I cannot understand him (being UNinterested, but body language/eyes talk the contrary). I was NOT searching for dating anyone, but developped something for him, and my son likes him much. He has been playing with my son. This man looks to be a real good man, and honest. I can understand a man is NOT interested in me, that is fine. But, I cannot understand when a man's behavior (eyes + body language) shows a lot of interest, but besides it, he would NOT say anything, then just would not talk/email any longer. I know he is busy, but I'm busy too, still find the time to email and try to call him. I hidded my profile on the dating service, he still has his visible, of course, because he is NOT interested in me, obviously. I asked him in an email if he could tell me what he thought about me, besides the fact I'm a nice girl, but I don't know if he even read my emails, but he didn't reply to me. If some men could help me understand the situation some clearer, because it is hurting me. Thanks! :) I even think about emailing him my question from Yahoo Answers, then your replies.
