He's averagely attractive I suppose, but thoroughly unpleasant.
He's the ex of a friend, so I'm not completely unbiased, but I disliked him from before I'd even met him, just because of the way friend seemed to be so anxious about displeasing him. For example, she'd said she'd be home by 10am after Sunday morning exercise and was really stressed about being a few minutes late because he had his children from a previous relationship and "needed" her help.
They were serious very quickly and he moved in because he needed somewhere to live and somewhere to have his DC When I did meet him and we went out as a group with friends he would often go off in a strop because of something she'd said. She regularly didn't know if he'd be there when she got home. Once he stropped off with her car keys leaving her stranded.
Then they had a child, he lost his job but still expected to spend as before - she has a very good job. Eventually she saw the light and kicked him out.
Now he has another partner. I know her to chat to and she regularly has all three of his children. She seems brilliant with them, but has them on her own almost all weekend while he does his hobbies. She used to do this hobby too, but she doesn't have time now.
Why? What's so attractive? Why do so many women fall for it?
