Search Results: taking ex back

So these things happened all over the course of a few months. My ex boyfriend (we'll call him E) has a friend, well call him X. They haven't been friends for very long, but I want to say I'm not trying to DO anything with X.
One of the first times we hung out as a group X hugged me and asked me what perfume I was wearing, and said he'd buy it for a girl he'd potentially like. he's told me I look cute more than once. Every time he sees me he ends up standing or sitting close to me. E even pointed it out once. He hugs me everytime he sees me, but he hugs everyone. X has laid his head down on my lap a few times, when I was laying on my friends bed X would lean on my legs to prop himself up. I laid on his lap once back but it resulted in a accidental nip slip. He touches me a lot, like brushing my arm or hand, and resting on my legs, getting thing out of my hair, once I had something on my inner thigh and he brushed it off. He bought me drinks for my bday a while back, I remember that night he was tipsy and gave me a long hug. He asked for my number multiple times. X would tease me scrolling my phone to make me lose my place, or bothering me until I say the magic word. He's called me "good weird" before. Also sometimes in a group he'll end up just talking to me. E has said that he thinks X is into me because he always asks about me. E has said this exactly "if I were insecure the things he does with you would upset me". E has said once before that X treats me differently than other girls he's seen him around. X always talks about other girls he's into. And on social media he's shown me girls he likes, but they do resemble me a lot. I'm not sure if that's on purpose. X recently got a new girlfriend, I haven't met her but she lives like 2 hours away. I saw X like 2 days ago and even though he has a girlfriend now he still did all those things. Like touching/laying on me, getting things out of my hair and he randomly started taking pictures of me.

I saw a guy for a few months back in my early twenties. I settled with him because no one better came around, bad decision hence I should have waited for someone that really met what I was looking for. I was a virgin at the time, he was not. I really tested him with my virginity. I didn’t want to have sex right away, I wanted him to get tested for STDs which he did. After a month in, we finally did have sex but he did say that he wouldn’t have waited if I decided to hold off until marriage. When he visited, he bought almost everything he covered the bill 80+% of the time. But he wasn’t romantic, he made it clear there were times when he was romantic with his exes and he knew I wanted the same type of chivalry. All he did was take me out to dinner for Valentine’s Day. He bought us a cruise package for his birthday but again no romantic gestures, more just taking out his wallet to cover the bare minimum. The other red flag id say is he talked about his exes more than I would have liked, even though he knew I was suspicious of that. He kept on saying that he was over them, he brought them up because he happened to have a lot of his social experiences with them
