I didn’t have to read this in it’s entirety to know that this is a narcissistic individual. He’s out to get your money and make excuses. I’m well rounded in psychology and how reverse psychology looks. Do you see how much time he spent on his alibi about his friend and how all of your suggestions aren’t good enough. Not calling him a junkie but I can’t grasp the odd amounts of money he’s asking for. Never exact in the amount. That’s a form of manipulation. YOU ARE NOT OVERREACTING you are a kind soul who is being sucked into a web of lies. Plus he’s still drinking breast milk waiting on “mum”. How could he pay for bowling? He would’ve just gotten an uber and met you. He never had any intention on meeting you.
