I don’t expect men like this to be honest or forthcoming. Not giving him a pass. It’s just not in their nature and expecting otherwise doesn’t serve us as women. My issue with scenarios like this is that women rarely get there (expecting happily ever after) by themselves. I’m sure he’s not picking out baby names but he’s definitely leaning in to that narrative when he needs her to hold him down or thinks she’s about to leave. If he told her anything that sounds remotely like “let’s see where this goes” she’d pull back.I have conflicted feelings about this. He needs to tell her what he's thinking so she can prepare herself. Leading her on when he knows she thinks this it for her is cruel and unfair.
This is why you don’t shack and play house with folks either.This is why you should never try to build with broke dudes.
He wants a decent job so does he not work now? I know you don't know OP, but seriously, is he confessing to being a bum?
And why are you continuing to waste everyone's time if your GF is not 'your type'?

He was successful already when they courted and got married. This is based on Wikipedia though. Also based on Wikipedia, she wasn't by his side as a gf but wife.Jeff Bezos was once broke, and look what he went on to build with his previous wife by his side. I'm just saying - not all broke dudes share the same views or stay broke forever.
I respectfully disagree. Broke in and of itself does not mean stagnated. Jeff Bezos was once broke, and look what he went on to build with his previous wife by his side. I'm just saying - not all broke dudes share the same views or stay broke forever.

There’s a huge difference between a broke man and a man with an ok/decent job who’s taking active steps to follow his ambitions. Bezos fell into the latter. So did Barack Obama when he met Michelle for that matter.I respectfully disagree. Broke in and of itself does not mean stagnated.

Black Twitter is probably already on itI hope his girlfriend saw this post.
He wasn’t broke. He was a trader before and had a family invest a certain amount of capital to get him started. He had a career and he decided to start a business.I respectfully disagree.

The girlfriend probably thinks this is going somewhere. Sadly this happens all the time. I knew someone in that situation. Took her 5 years to meet his kids or even be invited over to his house. Pure foolishness in my opinion.My brother in law is still talking about getting his pilots licence to attract the level of young women he dreams about.
He has an SO his age for once (46), but he won't show us a picture, tell his Mom about her, or introduce us. Even when we went to a restaurant 5 minutes away from her house. Been together for 2 years. When we ask him he says "she isn't the one". I hope he's being open with her, but I doubt it.

Could it be that she's white and he isn't comfortable bringing her around the family? A relative did the same thing. Dated this woman for years and when he would stop by he would leave her in the car. I'm guessing he told her that he was running inside real quick or something like that but he'd visit for 30 minutes while she waited in the car.My brother in law is still talking about getting his pilots licence to attract the level of young women he dreams about.

She’s patient bc I would definitely be blowing up his phone or knocked on the door after 5-10 minutes of waiting.Could it be that she's white and he isn't comfortable bringing her around the family?

The first time he did this I’d give him the benefit of the doubt. Any subsequent time though? I’d call an Uber and block him on my way home. Ain’t nobody got time for that.I'm guessing he told her that he was running inside real quick or something like that but he'd visit for 30 minutes while she waited in the car.
Idk how many times it happened. I suspect it was several times before we noticed. I think there were at least 5 times I'm aware of. She hung around and now he brings her inside.

He needs to just go ahead and say that lol.Methinks that his 'type' is white, but he's not getting any traction since he's broke.
