Met a guy a while back. We dated for a few weeks. He was pretty full on straight away: brought me flowers and wanted to bring them around before he knew where Ilived, brought me more flowers, insisted on fixing my car, insisted on paying for everything, talked to me every day, was overly concerned when I was ill. He disappeared a few weeks later.
Fast forward - my life has turned to hell, I'm in a privations very vulnerable position with no friends nor family support.
Me and this man reconnect by chance and I've sort of fallen into a relationship with him. Tonight we were discussing my position right now and he pointed out things weren't that desperate. I said 'not yet'.
He went quiet and I asked him what was the matter. He then told me I'd made him feel like a cunt. I asked him why. He said I'd basically said that he wouldn't make sure I was safe and that I came across as he'll 'do' foe now. I apologised and explained what I meant was that I will never ever allow myself to be in such a precarious position again and so yes, the situation right now does seem desperate to me because I'm about to be homeless (caveat: I've got a history of abusive relationships)
The look on his face bothered me. He let it go butting seemed such an overreaction on his part.
I'm in trouble, aren't I?
