Is this normal behavior for a guy?

This guy name Alex has a girlfriend a couple of years ago he and I did actually sleep together once while he's been in the relationship. And he would have done it again had I allowed it. ((Us hooking up is irrelevant to this post though))

Five months ago when I asked Alex if I could massage him. (I wasn't implying anything sexual I've actually gone to school for Massage Therapy) He told me he would love to but that he doesn't think it's a good idea. And that he's trying to be a good boy. I guess saying he doesn't want to cheat? So I started talking to another guy name Billy. And the first time Alex saw me talking to Billy he walked by me saying he liked my scarf. The second time Alex saw me
talking to Billy he walked over to where we were and started talking.

So is this normal behavior? Like basic interaction or was he actually trying to get my attention?

I think when he knew there's a different man, it makes him more comfortable with you and now it's clear you just want to be platonic with each other.
He is fighting the urge to get sexuall with you. And you having a different guy in your life is a great help with that.

I don’t see how it’s a help when he tried to get my attention when he saw me talking to the other guy.

Sounds pretty normal. He likes you, and wants you, but has other relationship obligations. That doesn't stop him from experiencing jealousy when you talk to other guys.

Sounds like Alex still likes you and the massage would have led to many other things in his mind.

It's called being friendly. Just move on. Didn't this happen like a year ago? Leave him alone.

No, it wasn’t a year ago also I don’t know why you’re telling me to leave him alone? When he was the one who was trying to get my attention when I moved on talking to another guy.

I agree with Alex, massages can be very sensual.

[CandyCupcake]

That wasn’t the question.

But it sounds like he is jealous.
