This man has been around in the background for several months now. People told me they thought they were together before now. I now feel very very confused and lost but I agree with the comments that I am better off without this man. I truly loved him though and this is hurting me a lot.

He apologised about it and says he is going to sort himself out and get a job and straighten himself out.I will give him a chance to show he is improving and see how it goes.I have beared every comment in mind and am going to take it one step at a time and see if things get better or not.I no longer lend him money and have made a point of telling him this.

Him telling you he wanted to marry you means absolutely nothing when you consider his actions...he stood you up, he dumped you out of the blue, he asked you for money for alcohol and cigarettes...who cares what he says. You need to believe 10% of what a man says and 90% of what he does.
"It is when I said I would not lend him anymore money and wanted him to prove he loved me that he then dumped me." - this is all you need to know, he was using you, i.e. you would not give him the money and you wanted him to show you he cared about you, he didn't so he dumped you.
He just realized he wouldn't get what he wanted from you so he was done with you, he never cared about you. He probably asked you to marry him because he thought that's what you wanted to hear and would give in to his demands. When you put your foor down and told him no more money, what did he do? He left.
Listen to natasia, life has helped you. You need to forget him, realize he never cared for you or had intentions of marrying you, and be glad you're free to find someone real.

I think life has already helped you - he has gone! And good riddance!!
Listen, if he was already asking you to pay for his habits, he would have been a crap husband, trust me. You don't need that.

Good riddance.
Be glad that it's over now and that you aren't going to be married to a person like that.
Move on to someone better.
