Hi all,
it's just stupid gullible old me again... I've just found out some things about my boyfriend that I'm shocked about and I feel like such a fool. It's not the same guy that disappeared on me a couple of months back - it's a different guy - and I thought he was genuine, but being the curious person that I am, I googled his real name (will elaborate on that later) and I found out that...
- he's not 37 at all - he's 47! That makes him 25 years older than me, and the same age as my Mum, which disturbs me;
- he's got kids, when he told me he hadn't;
- he doesn't live in the town he told me he did;
- and here's the kicker - he's married. He assured me he wasn't.
I feel like such a flipping idiot. I mean, I'd thought he looked a bit older than 37 when I first met him... but I didn't really know many people of his age (my friends are all in their early 20s). I only had Charlie Brooker from Screenwipe to go by, and I thought he just looked naturally young! :\
So what should I do now? Obviously the relationship can't continue. I don't date married men. >:[ But how can I tell him I've been Googling him? And, indeed, it was a different name to the one he introduced himself to me by - I found out his real name from his debit card.
But he told me that his first name was actually his middle name, and that that was what he went by - but it isn't!
I'm not sure I can ever trust a man again. And I'm thinking I'm way too gullible to survive in the real world. :[
