I have a friend that just got divorced and we have dated a few times and on valentine's day he asked me out to lunch and we had a great conversation except when he just sits there and stares at me, so does he just like the way I look or does he have feelings for me?  I have not told him how I feel but I believe he knows.

If he had any deep-seated feelings, love, for the other woman in his life. Well when they parted an Emotional-Death took place within their lives. This death will affect both his relationship to you, and just like the loss of a family-member it will take him about two years to get over his break-up with his wife. So you'll really be playing an emotional-second-fiddle for the next two years. Then Often there is no new emotional-bonding that takes place ,and you'll have to keep in mind that a paper divorce and a mind divorce are two different things. You can truly learn to love him but can he truly relearn to love someone else/

as always u should be up front and honest with your freind,next time he is just staring at u ask him...does he like what he is looking at or not .That should open up the way to find out how u 2 really feel about each other. Keep in mind he is just getting back into dating, and u might just be the beging of it all. ..... good luck..

Trust no one and Respect is earned not given!!!!

Looks like he forgot how it feels like to stare a beautiful women! You are lucky I guess , from the way it sounds it looks like he is willing to do what it takes and invest in all those small things that build up a good relationship.

I personally think there is nothing wrong in being a bit ambiguous about your feelings, especially in the beginning . Don't worry about you not telling him how you feel, it is OK to hold it in for a while . Some of us are a bit more protective then others and tend to be more careful about our heart. Anyways wait until you are sure this is what you want and you are sure that his behavior/feelings are real.  If he wants an answer just say you don't want to mislead him , if he really cares for you he will be patient and understanding.

He likes you for sure, otherwise he wouldn't have asked you out at least on Valentine's Day! And about the feelings part of it...you got to try him out to find it out. So be brave and if you really like him send him an ecard ( http://www.123greetings.com/love/be_mine/bmine10.html ) and let your feelings flow...if it doesn't work out you can always be friends...

Well I really think he likes you, but he doesn't know what to say.  He has had the nerve to ask you out but doesn't have enough nerve to tell you how he feels.  Im sure he likes the way you look, but I think his silence is coming from the fact that he doesn't want to mess up.  He may not be too confident in the relationship area right now because he just got a divorce.  Him asking you out and his stares are definately indierct and non-verbal cues for you to start the conversation about the situation at hand.  He's a wounded man right now so you have to be the dominant one who take scharge. Once you guys start to talk you can get a feel for wether you're a rebound or if he really likes you.  Be careful, but have balls.  This could be just the thing for the both of you.  I wish you well. 

i think he has feelings for you .. he did ask you to be his valentine ! but you should keep it slow  since he got divorced recently .. wait for the right moment babeeeee ^_*

Maybe he's just a creep. Why would a guy sit and sare. Uness he's truly inlove.

Life Life Dont Regret.

He admires you. He loves you. He wants you to know that he admires you. You also know that he loves and admires you. He is the kind of person who will keep you interested in him. don't let him go.

Take it easy

No one ever gets divorced, sad to say, As there will always be that unseen third person his EX or her EX within any new relationship. It will take him at least two years for him to get through his emotional divorce. And sometimes it just won't happen at all. Oh, Sure he can have sex with you, Yes even great sex, But that's just his body's response to a natural, biological need, and it may or may not have any basis in his love for you whatsoever. So don't rush him, first see if he can empty out his mental suitcase of  Mrs Ex. Then you can move in or move on with your life.
