A lot of people love the feeling of being pursued by another person. The excitement it creates also makes it difficult to reject the advances being made, especially if you also have feelings for that person. However, certain situations make being pursued a little more complicated.
One of the biggest ones is being pursued by someone you can’t have, such as a man who is already married. Regardless of how much you want to keep it going, it could be confusing because you know he is not available and then starts to second guess the signals he has been sending that lead you to believe he is interested.
