I saw an emotionally broken man who needed a hand up so I gave it.
and I think that's the answer to your question..I think that's why you should not ask..what is up..I think if you respond and ask..showing emotion..then you are sending Gabe mixed messages...
a user is a user....at this point all this will do is add drama to your life...
I would be willing to bet that the deal is this...him and the broom had a little falling out a while back...and he laid a, "im going back to Cali on you" he knows your sympathetic....shortly after that they made up a bit i believe..and she tossed him again..he realizes.."I can't go back to Cali, no money, no way..etc, etc.." so he looks for that soft spot..and you being the person you are offer up a spot for him..thinking he won't take it but he fools you and does..you tell him it's temporary?? I'm assuming..until he gets on his feet?? To him temporary might mean 6 months ....meanwhile..he's still cake eating while living with his ex...
I bet if you call him out..he will say he will do something to himself, or he's going to Cali...or SOMETHING dramatic...
patterns Mish...patterns..these guys are predictable i think..especailly to someone on the outside looking in..IMO..
These WAS's have it made...they cake eat..they get the best of both worlds while 95% of the time paying no child support...
