Is he just being friendly or interested?

[Lucielu1]

I have been talking to this older guy at the gym for a long time and it’s hard to gauge if he’s interested. I’m in my mid 30s he’s in his late 40s but we always seem to laugh and joke around when we are there. In the past he has complimented my hair and said how tiny I am and when I hurt my arm and I wore a brace he would say you don’t want to look all cute wearing that. I know he’s friendly but it seems he always makes an effort to talk to me and ask what my plans are. I did give him my number awhile ago when he said he was going to be in my area for his sons tryouts but i never heard from him. I will say a few months ago I was telling him that the personal trainer there was awkwardly hitting on me and I feel so de then he’s kinda backed off with the compliments. And I think he was a little put off when he made a comment of how strong I am I’m like oh my dad says the same thing he’s like oh so I’m old like your dad I don’t know if he took that as rejection. I’m just very confused by his actions.

Yeah, you never bring in discussions of other men in a conversation wit a man you are trying to get to ask you out. In his mind, you just Friendzoned him. It is his fault as well since he has not asked you out. He has something else going on that you do not know about as well.

I definitely wasn’t trying to do that. He has been less flirty and I’m not sure why.

In my experience, people don't typically lose interest in someone they're attracted to unless you say or do something extremely off putting.
If you're still into him and he hasn't fallen for someone else, it's not too late to turn up the heat!

It does sound like he's into you, or at some point was

It sounds like he was into you but may not be sure if you like him.
