The next morning, Mary was still sleeping when he left their place for work. Later on, she sent him a text apologizing, claiming she was simply saying whatever because she had too much to drink.
He replied to Mary that he wasn’t willing to discuss this yet, so she said she was going to go stay with one of her friends for a couple of days.
Mary is still staying with one of her friends, and a piece of him believes this has all gone too far, while another piece of him thinks this has the potential to ruin their relationship.
Now, he says he’s extremely fit and works out nearly every day. He appreciates dressing in a nice way and taking care of himself.
“I put effort into my appearance, but despite all that, I’ll admit that I’m not a great-looking dude—I have a funky nose and an awkward jaw,” he said.
“Just how the cards fell for me. I know she isn’t with me because we’re in the same league, because that just isn’t true. Equally, I like to think I’m a charismatic guy. I do, however, work in high finance and do very well for myself. I own a nice condo downtown, have a few higher-end cars, a healthy investment portfolio that started as a windfall, etc.”
“My girlfriend, however, is gorgeous. Like, “bite-the-back-of-your-hand” gorgeous. Previously, she sold jewelry and modeled. She doesn’t have a full-time job anymore and instead takes modeling jobs when the opportunity arises, which is part of my concern. Nonetheless, she’s been incredibly supportive of me and my career and has practically become a stay-at-home girlfriend. We’ve previously discussed marriage and eventually kids down the line.”
He loves Mary and wants to give her everything, but he can only hope she feels the same way about him.
He pays all their bills, gives Mary one of his cars to use, and even provides her with a monthly allowance so she can go shopping.
Mary never asks him for anything overly expensive and isn’t the type to really buy designer jewelry or handbags for herself.
“Nonetheless, I’m growing deeply concerned that she’s with me for my money, and the thought has been festering all day,” he continued.
