Mr. Atomic Physicst (Part 2)

I wasn’t planning to post this but today happened.

Since the last time we talked, I haven't been responding to his messages because he wanted to come over or vice versa even though I told him multiple times already that what he’s doing is wrong. The next day, he asked about my Facebook status. He asked why I’m still in a relationship and I explained it to him. I stopped using my Facebook so I never bothered changing my status to single or none at all. He told me that he was going back to London that same week and wanted me to accompany him to the airport. He lied. Again. He told me that he was going to stay here for a month when we first met. I agreed and I had to wake up extra early for his flight.

He texted me when he arrived and I wished him good luck. So we started talking more about personal stuff. He’s still studying and he’s been confused about his career path and feels pressured. We talked about his girlfriend and found out we are similar in an eerie way.

Today, he told me that his paper is getting published.

This is what he said:

“Yeah, good thanks 🙂 Just in the lab again filling magnets with nitrogen. My paper was selected as the editor’s pick too so I’m chuffed about that”

I also asked him about his girlfriend and he told me that they found a house that they were going to move in. I’m happy for them and proceeded to congratulate him. He then asked me if I wanted to be in a relationship with him. I’m speechless.

Feeling his oats because his paper is getting published?

Or he thinks you are a better match and wants to have his next relationship already sorted out before leaving a person with whom he is going to be living in a new-to-them house...?

How does he think that models "good relationship material"? lmao

@SomeMichGuy I believe that he only likes me because I remind him of his girlfriend. I’m only his ‘type’ of girl.

It’s crazy that he would risk all of that for someone he just met.

He's not crazy. This is his modus operandi. In time, he will get married, and he will continue doing the same thing, as long as he's got women willing to entertain his advances.

You may be interested in Physics and Chemistry, but I'm sure you can feed your curiosity/needs somewhere else, with less drama.

If you're connected through some sort of professional relationship, this simply violates all rules.

Bottom line: the situation is entirely under YOUR control.

@Northwest I never thought of it that way. Thank you for enlightening me.
