His actions say he likes you. There’s no denying that. People don’t remember details, linger on calls, ask about your family, or light up around someone they feel nothing for. That part is real. You’re not imagining it.
But here’s the part you need to hear. His actions also say he’s staying safely on the edge. He hasn’t crossed a clear line. He hasn’t said what he wants. He hasn’t made a move that costs him anything. Right now, this lives in a warm, emotional gray area where it feels exciting and safe at the same time.
And I want you to be careful with that, because you’re married and unhappy, and when your heart is starving, even crumbs can feel like a feast.
What’s keeping you happy right now isn’t him. It’s the feeling of being seen again. Wanted again. Alive again.
Before you read more into his signals, ask yourself what you need to do about your marriage first. Because if nothing changes there, this situation will quietly break your heart.
Enjoy the connection, but don’t let hope run ahead of reality
