just started internet dating, met a few duds and now come across someone who seems like he could be great. shared interests, backgrounds, basic stuff etc etc all good.
here are my concerns:
- he is very in touch with how I'm feeling, to the extent that is scary. seems to predict what I might be thinking (accurately). Is he just a nice sensitive type or a manipulative but charming psychopath?
- he is fighting like crazy for access to his child. he tells me a fair bit about this. is this good information sharing or too much info / too much going on in his life?
- his ex left him for another man, after he confronted her about an affair. is he telling the truth or do women really do this? I know this is a stupid question but I'm so cynical given all the tales of bastard exs and cheating dhs on here that I am automatically thinking he must have done something really wrong himself. but he could just be the wronged party, right?
- exchanging emails about your personal life, taste in books and films etc doesn't mean you know someone. What if he is a complete psycho - not in an obvious way but in a Richard-from-Corrie way (if you remember Gail's charming but manipulative psycho murderer husband?!) How likely is this - anyone met or been married to a man who seemed just wonderful then turned out to be a maniac control freak / psycho?
Basically, I am SCARED. He seems too good to be true, so I think he probably is. He returns my emails very quickly, is dead keen to meet up. Is he quite simply just keen or is there a hidden agenda? I know YOU don't know - but neither do I, this is the whole damn problem with the internet dating thing.
Please talk sense to me, one way or another!
