So did not take my own advice. I agreed to be friends with the jerk. I thought why not. He has asked and asked and in some sort of way I thought it would make me feel better, I know right? So, it started on Friday. Funny friendly text, funny emails all day all week until today.
Well. His new girl (he cheated with) is actually on a cruise this week. So, I called him out on it. He said yes she is out of town but he talks to me because he wants to be friends and misses my friendship. Yet, no funny texts or emails at all since I asked him about her and his intentions. So does he want to be my friend or is he lonely since she is gone?
When he asked you to continue with the friendship, it flattered you. He knew exactly how to get back in your good graces. Now on the flip side, was that really the right choice to make? How did you find out she was on the cruise? Did you do some detective/stalkerazzi work because it seems like he did not tell you, that you found out some way and then asked him about it.
Maybe you just got him to thinking about the situation and what he really wants, or maybe he thought that you were wanting more from him since you asked him his intentions. He might be feeling guilty about talking to you while she is gone.
No she works with a friend of mine and we were talking about him. I am in no way stalkerish. We are on good terms. He is just a friend now. - 7 months ago

Glad that it worked out 4 you. Kind of going through the same thing now and he wants us to stay friends. I decided to cut back the time I spend with him and I hope it works out for us too. We have been friends too long. It will be hard I know. - 7 months ago
Flirting over the cell phone seems more innocent than flirting in person. He fancies the cell-flirts between the two of you. Once you brought his new girl to the forefront and called him out on it, the reality that he has a girlfriend - despite his fantasies of another - made him peddle back. He probably didn't expect you to mention her. And I think you now know, or subconsciously know, that he doesn't intend to have a platonic friendship with you.
