Don't know what to think

[T-boned]

Ran into H at the hardware store a couple of weeks ago. Hugged, and we both said it was good to see one another. Also, we both complimented on how good we both looked.

Talked about trivial stuff - told him I went to an event the night before, something I thought he would have enjoyed. OK, bring out the bats . . . . told him I missed doing things with him - he said the same of me and that he would like to do things together 'as friends'. Gag.... I told him I didn't know if I was ready for that yet - that some days I think I can do it, and others where I don't. Also, I told him I would be lying if I wasn't hoping to be more than friends again.

A couple more things were said, not necessarily on that subject, but he got uncomfortable so I ended the interaction. We ended with hugs, good to see and talk with you - will talk to you later.

Just don't think at this point in time I can be around him as a friend. So I guess detachment is the way to get there. I'll stay working on that path.
