Dating a Broke Guy
I want to rant lang but go ahead if you want to give an advice.
A month ago, I started talking to this guy on Bumble. We transferred na to messaging app even messenger pero we didn't add each other on FB. We also met 3x times na rin. I've noticed a lot of red flags already pero I don't want to dismiss him right away and I still keep giving him chances.
- He already said that he's in love with me but I keep on telling him that he is not. When he did, medyo nag stop siya talking about it. Medyo cheesy rin siya and he keeps on sending me AI videos about love and romance.
- He has work pero may financial problem siya. A lot of issues din with work I dont know if nagkataon lang while he's talking to me. But because na soshort siya, he doesnt eat. Naaawa ako kaya I send him money. May times naman na he's borrowing na. Even dates, sinasagot ko na rin. Gets ko yung may financial struggle but he's already nearing 40s. And I called him out na he should do something about this situation.
- I told him Im still recovering from a previous 'almost' relationship. And he keeps on bugging me bakit hindi ko pa rin siya magustuhan even if he already did all the bare minimum (not ghosting me, always updating, etc.) na gagaslight pa nga ako.
I dont know if its valid but I keep on forgiving him kasi baka naman Im being harsh. Or dahil I dont have much experience with relationships, baka this is really how it should go. There are challenges and hardships that I should endure so I dont really know what to do. One time, when we were fighting he even threatened that he will k*ll himself.
Recently, he's not texting and updating a lot because his dog is sick. He sends me photos naman and I believe him but I feel medyo relieved. His last message was two days ago and then he called me this morning but I wasn't able to answer.
