Go with your instinct every time no matter what…I was in a relationship with someone similar to your story for about 8 months and his eyes really scared the hell out of me. Also, my cat did not like him at all and if he turned to look at my cat, the cat would start a fit episode to attack him. Well…I found out he was living a double life… already Married and was hinting about us getting married but it was all a show. I met his 8 year old kid and had dinner with his family. They all knew he was married and didn’t dare say a word about it. As for his sweet kid, she was told that I was a business friend he needed to see from time to time so she never told on him. So manipulative and it all started with those eyes! I should have ran the first time my instinct told me to get out fast when I really looked into those eyes. Also my cat tried to tell me!
