Search Results: i backed off, now he's back

Been dating a female for about 6 months… We went on 1 date & spent quality time with each other twice… I was approached by this female saying she liked me and wanted me for years once she found out i was no longer in a relationship… We texted everyday… The chemistry, charisma, & sexual tension was definitely there… She told me she was single when i asked about her ex fiancé who she was engaged to… she said for a year & 43 days which I’m assuming it was due to him being incarcerated… he is the father of 2 of her kids… She said they still had love for one another but they decided they were better off as best friends… when she got overwhelmed & overstimulated with personal issues she would push me away & shut me out for days at a time… Her distancing herself started to bother me so i communicated it to her which she said if we communicated things would work out between us so that’s what i did… she became angry at me… she said how she eventually wanted to be my girlfriend and had future plans with me in them… she said she could see herself falling in love with me because im a good person but then we had a disagreement because the distancing became more common than ever… so she said i was suffocating her because i didn’t believe anything she told me so we friend zoned one another… Then she kept texting me i told her to stop texting me… she texted me one day saying she missed me… So we were back in good graces… Then i planned something special for her because i knew she was going through some personal issues and i had Christmas gifts for her… So on Saturday we had sex after she seen her romantic gesture and gifts but that same day she said her baby father was coming home soon… she texted me Sunday thanking me for the best few hours she had in a long time & she kept admiring her flowers while smiling so hard… Then after that things got weird she only texts me in the mornings now… my assumption is he’s home…

I am 30 and flat out broke. I don't own a home. The only true assets I possess is a sedan and an RV. I live in an apartment, and I will have to move back to my parents' home once my lease ends.

I am newly engaged and already starting off on a bad foot. I didn't get my first actual girlfriend until age 29, the woman I am now engaged to. I have been a software developer on and off for the past 4 years now. Sadly, my industry has been decimated largely due to the Xiden regime. To make matters worse, his regime started the process of terminating my social security benefits and Medicare his last 3 months in office, despite being unemployed since mid-July last year.

I didn't have the greatest past. I have a stalking conviction from 9 years ago. I ended up losing my EMT license in 2019 because of that. I have been in and out of hospitals for severe mental illness, and I was caught up in a pred sting 3 years ago. No charges or convictions stemmed from that, but there were collateral damages for sure.

Anyways, I am talented and highly skilled and poor as dirt.

I thought the 30s were supposed to be a time when a man is financially sound and successful in his career.
