We used to hooked up but he’s friend zoning me? ?

We used to hook up and we will text each other on instagram. We work together so when I don’t go in to work he will text me why and if I’m ok he says he’s texting me as a friend but why does he keep talking to me then?

Girl I feel you, that is super confusing! On the one hand he says he's just being friendly, but then he's also asking about you when you're not at work? Makes it seem like maybe he's still interested, you know?

My advice would be to just play it cool for now. Keep being friendly back so you stay on good terms, but don't initiate as much or make yourself too available either. And definitely don't hook up again unless you get some clearer signs he wants to be more.

Next time you guys chat, you could casually bring up past times you hooked up just to get a read on how he reacts. If he seems uncomfortable, he might just wanna be friends. But if he plays along like it was fun, it shows he's still thinks of you that way maybe.

Either way, don't get played! If he's just stringing you along without committing, you don't need that stress girlfriend. You're way too cute to waste time on a maybe. Keep your options open and trust your gut on this one! Let me know what you think after your next convo with him. We'll figure this out!
