Search Results: guy friend acts weird

Friendly visit with friend that I’ve known since 2010.. he was in town and he invited me to the lake and said to bring my bikini. It was warm and he had sunscreen so he offered to spray some on my back.. and give me a massage.
He started at my neck.. down my back.. to my legs.. when he sprayed lotion near my inner thigh I mentioned that it tickled when he heard me giggle so he sprayed me two more times. I’d also put on some extra weight and I joked that most of it had went to my butt.
He said I can see that and patted me on the butt a couple times.
We were briefly intimate in 2016 before he moved away. He’d been weird about other guys being nice to me before he moved and then even after.. up until recently.
This is the first time he’s engaged in any form of PDA so trying to figure out how I should take this.. flirt?
Friendly gesture? He dropped me off at home he offered to give me a hug and put his arms around my lower back.. any opinions helpful 🙂

Longtime guy friend.. brief intimacy a few years ago. He’d act weird when other guys were nice to me before he moved and a few times since then. He’s normally casual about relationships. Have visited a few times since he moved. Most recent visit he invited me to the lake and said bring my bikini. He sprayed lotion on my back.. rubbed my shoulders, neck/back and legs. He smacked my butt a couple times when I’d mentioned that the weight had gained has recently went there.. he said I know and smacked it. Weird part is that he said he liked friends with benefits but acting weird when other guys were nice to me didn’t make sense.. especially since he’s moved. The lake visit was nice but did leave me confused. It’s the first time he’d done anything public like that. Right after he moved he said we’re friends, I don’t know when I’ll see you.. and “if the benefits happen”.. I’m just hoping I didn’t misread the lake visit as flirt. When we were in the water he did splash me a couple times. Opinions appreciated 🙂

Long time friend.. period of intimacy a few years ago.. he has a history of being casual about relationships but would act weird when others were nice to me.. before and after he moved. Spent time recently at the lake and he told me to bring my bikini.. he rubbed my neck.. back.. legs and smacked my butt a couple times. When we were in the water he even splashed me a couple times.. this was new because public displays like that were not the usual. Just curious.. from guy standpoint: can intimacy take place for 6 months without some kind of eelinds? Not necessarily love but in general? Opinions helpful.. from girls too of course.. just curious from guys especially..
