I went on a date last night with a man I met on MillionaireMatch.com. He seemed impressive on paper. His picture was average, but I didn’t have high expectations.
When we met at the restaurant, I initially thought, “No way that’s him; he’s too attractive.” But it turned out to be him. We introduced ourselves, and during our conversation, he playfully asked if I was going to pay for dinner. That was my first red flag. Why would a self-proclaimed millionaire ask me to cover the bill? At first, I thought he might be trying to weed out potential gold diggers. We ended up staying at the bar and never moved to the dining area, though he did pay for an appetizer and a drink.
He went on to share stories about his life, including sexual escapades with twin 24-year-olds, and he’s 45, just like me. What kind of emotionally mature man discusses his three-way encounters with much younger women on a first date? Was he expecting me to be impressed by his libido? Red flag number two.
Despite this, he quickly declared his love for me and even mentioned monogramming china! He talks about how I should move closer and all the fun we’re going to have together. He describes his house renovations in detail, boasting about the expensive materials like marble flooring.
Then he begins his manipulative tactics, making comments designed to instill self-doubt in me, suggesting that I wouldn’t be able to function without him. He called me “compulsive,” but I know that’s far from true. Now I’m feeling uneasy.
He invited himself over to my house for a hot tub session on Saturday night. Red flag number three. I suggested I would like to see his house and the renovations, but he said maybe on the third date. What could he possibly be hiding?
As we left the restaurant, I noticed my car was parked right outside because there was ample parking available. When I inquired about his vehicle, he claimed it was valet parked two blocks away. However, there was no valet service at that restaurant. Red flag number four! I started to suspect he might be driving a clunker that would contradict his millionaire persona.
This morning, he left me a message saying I missed cuddling with him in bed. Now I’m feeling a chill run down my spine.
I decided to text him that I would be conducting a thorough background check, something I do to protect myself after being conned by other men in the past. His response? He said we were done talking.
Busted! Any genuinely caring man would respect my need for safety and transparency.
