My married guy friend has flirted with me for years but recently took that flirting up a few notches. I'm attracted to him so I did play along but I know we took it too far.
I'm not sure he actually wants to take things to a physical level (because I would think he would have done that by now if he wanted to) but some people think he does.
I'd like to keep the almost 10 year friendship intact but I can't be his friend with all the flirting because I'll want more.
How do I talk to him about this? What should I say? I don't want to look stupid (if he really doesn't want anything and I'm reading too much into it) and I don't want to lose the friendship. On the same token- if the intensity of the flirting picked up because he is finally getting out of his unhappy marriage (which he has mentioned in the past) then I'd like him to know I'm open to more...when he's single.
