Agree to everything that you listed out... only one thing does not seem rightFlirting, because he knows his power over women (which he does, btw), flirting as when we are with friends are two things which do not go down well with meLove or not, friendship or not; he wouldnt want to exercise his power over herTo feel good (reunion party was a different ball game. We shouldn't hang it over him like the Albatross of Colerige's Ancient mariner)Or, to judge the reactions he has over her, that would make him a cadAnd if that is what he has been doingWell! i would give him a kick and throw him out of my life (Sumo's life😆) at the first instance. He is not a surveillance system, for all I careHis flirting is a sort of subconscious decision.. over which he often times loses control (Wonder if the sprain in his leg was also a part of that dilemma)As a friend, he can tease her but the way he flirted on the terrace, in the kitchen or near the cupboard... is a part of a psychological need to grasp her presence in his life... meaning which over the years has taken on different connotationsAt times, I do believe there are Freudian slip... during the interaction in Sumo's room when he blurted out that he was doing it for her, or, when he let slipped that he loved her presence in the darknessLove scares him... to a certain extent. Not because he believes he would lose but because he believes he would be left alone.. probablyDoes he know about her feelings.. i guess he does but his reasoning is not matching with what his heart is telling himTime will help and so also new experiences with womenfolk😉Nice post as usual👏
