You know Stace, I think this last set of emails is excellent.

Look at it. She calls him a pet name but suggests that she doesn't want to hook up with him, just wants to drink with him. What does he do in return - well, he is businesslike and short. The first thing he does is tell her he doesn't prefer her new body type! Unless he's a moron, that's not the statement of a man trying to get in her pants.

And then he repeats that he is happy with his marriage. When you stop to think about it, if he was really kind of hopeful about hooking up with her, he wouldn't say that... even if it were the case. He'd suggest that the marriage wasn't working, and that he was unhappy and looking for something different.

A guy who is a serial cheater will be on the lookout for any opportunity, anything that seems promising. He sounds like he is trying to shut the door on this one. Maybe the tides have turned.
