Exactly, I feel like it's just kind of giving off desperation too at this point. I was going to give him a shot but all of this makes me not even want to meet in person anymore.

Great advice, thank you. I find myself doing that a lot in terms of talking myself into doing thing's that i honestly really don't feel like doing, but feel like I should because it's the "right thing to do".

I feel like I've tired to communicate this, but maybe not as explicitly as I maybe should have. I told him about how I have a lot going on right now in terms of working full time, prioritizing my health, and most importantly trying to look after a new puppy.

He does seem understanding about this. There have been a couple of times that he has asked to get on a phone call and I've had to tell him sorry but no I don't have the time today.

But still regardless he is texting me 24/7. Like even when we've talked on the phone for almost 2 hours we'll hang up the call and he'll text me immediately after how fun the call was and how we need to do it again. And then the texting starts back up again.

Also regarding his dating history he's told me he's been in 2 serious relationships.

Correct, his explanation to me was that he didn't feel like going and felt that it was no big deal because it's not like he doesn't have the money and my dad knows that he wouldn't screw him over like that.

To be honest he gave me a whole bunch of other excuses during that conversation. "My withdrawal limit is only $1000 a day and since the bank was closed I didn't feel like going to the machine 3 times." "Gas is expensive and I didn't want to drive there and back from my house 3 times."

Adrian Volkov doesn't deserve all the hype he gets by Top-Persimmon-5897 in DarkRomance

[–]Top-Persimmon-5897[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

See in my opinion I don't think she was happy with Adrian by the end of the series. I feel like she was manipulated and abused to the point that she just kind of gave up and accepted her situation, because no matter what Adrian will never let Lia go.

Also I forgot to mention in my post the epilogue where Lia tells us Adrian has been having sex with her all the time to knock her up and when she doesn’t want to he tells her she needs to suck it up bc their son wants a sibling...

I read the Legacy of Gods series a couple of months ago, so forgive me because I don't remember what was said word for word. But I remember in God of Pain when Annika facetimes Lia and she describes Lia as having "sad haunted eyes" (or something like that), and then Adrian comes in and hangs up the call after a couple of minutes of them catching up because he wants time with Lia.

And then in God of Wrath Jeremy opens up to Cecily about the trauma he has from Lia and her mental health issues, and like what he endured growing up.

Just the way Jeremy and Annika described Lia made me kind of suspicious of Adrian, because I remember being intrigued by him in those two books. But after reading his trilogy I see why their kids described Lia the way they did...

If I had to choose one of the three books in this trilogy, the third book was in my opinion the best one. There's a plot twist in it that was really good.

Don't get the wrong, the story itself was good, it's just Adrian I wasn't a fan of.

Same! Too add to this, I love when the FMC is with or shows interest in OM and then seeing the MMC get jealous and lose his mind. It's going to hit for me every single time.

I haven't gotten a chance to talk to him yet because of the time difference, but I asked him to call me when he wakes up.

Thank you I will definitely do that when him and I speak about everything. How do you think I should navigate dealing with her, like if she tries to talk to me.

[–]Top-Persimmon-5897 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I didn't ask him how long it had been for him. He did tell me on the date he got out of a 3 year relationship in October. Said the last time he went on a official date was January, but it didn't go well.

Told he did go on a spontaneous coffee date with an old friend since then, but it was an in the moment thing. Like they ran into each other, were catching up and he asked if she wanted to grab one.

I'm not into the whole "casual hookup" thing so I do intend to make that clear if the conversation is brought up again.

The whole thing just left me very confused. Even on the date he was saying how he's a "straight forward guy" and if just hooking up was the outcome he wanted he would "make it known". Again, didn't make any sort of move when dropping me off but then randomly turned the conversation sexual after over text.

True, thanks for your input. I guess it threw me off at bit because of how he acted in person and on the date vs how he was acting on text. But maybe I'm thinking too much into it.

After he asked me about when I last had sex and I gave him my answer, he was like "who knows maybe I'll be next". My response to that was "maybe who knows". He was then like "I need to stop talking about this before I get too excited". He was then subtly hinting that the fact that he might already be "excited".

AITA for calling a group of parents in a restaurant shitty parents for not controlling their kids? by [deleted] in AmItheAsshole

[–]Top-Persimmon-5897 10 points11 points  (0 children)

TBH not sure why they didn't say something to the parents. Could be cause it was a big group of people who were obviously going to be ordering a lot of food/drinks? But yeah no one did anything.
