Dilemma - he thinks i fancy him. Advice please

[evedawn]

I've have been having friendly banter, (ok and a bit of a flirt but nothing too outrageous) with a guy i come into contact with (often) through work. We live in the same town and yesterday he asked me if we could meet up sometime for coffee.

I said "sure" but made it clear that he has a girlfriend and i have husband that it would be for a friendly chat - nothing else...

Now I've gotten a FULL ON (wont give the details) FLIRTY text message and it's worrying me.

He has got the wrong idea.

I now don't think it a good idea to meet for coffee but how do i tell him AND still manage to keep the professional relationship above board. Also I know that he suffers from anxiety / depression too and so i don' wanna hurt his feelings.

Ooeerrrrr... advice much appraeciated

okay - just an update...

and THANKS ALOT to all who helped with my dilemma yesterday).....appreciate it.

I spoke to he person (he rang me) over phone today. He came out and said that hoped he wasn't out of line by what he'd said etc...and I told him i was a bit "freaked" out...had i given him the wrong idea etc?

we had quite a long talk over the phone . Told him it would be a better idea if we met for coffee WITH our partners. He said yup thats a good idea and at least we both know where we stand etc...PHEW!!!

Thankyou all for listening to me ramble last night.
