Svetlana Djordjea month agoI (26F) am feeling uneasy about a guy friend of mine, who is also an ex-Bumble match (27M). We went on two dates last year, but I didn’t feel a strong connection and decided to let him know that I wasn’t interested in anything romantic. I suggested we could stay friends, and he agreed at the time. However, since then, he has been crossing some boundaries that I set. He frequently asks about my plans and where I am, claiming he wants to hang out “as friends.” When I mentioned I couldn’t meet up because I was on a date with someone else, he jokingly suggested we should go on a date too. I firmly told him that I wasn’t interested in that, and he responded with “just kidding lol,” which didn’t sit well with me. What bothers me the most is that he continues to comment on my Instagram selfies and pictures, complimenting me with remarks like “pretty” and sending heart reactions, even though he knows I have a boyfriend now. While he hasn’t been as persistent as before, I can’t help but feel that his behavior is crossing a line. I’m torn about whether to confront him about this. I don’t want to assume he’s still hitting on me, but his actions are making me uncomfortable. Part of me wonders if he’s just being friendly, but I find it hard to believe given the context. I’m also hesitant to call him out, as I don’t want to come off as presumptuous. Ultimately, I’m considering whether it might be best to cut ties altogether, as I’m not keen on maintaining a friendship that feels one-sided and flirty. I would appreciate any opinions on whether he’s still trying to pursue me and advice on how to handle the situation.135
