Whoever he really is, you probably haven't met that guy yet.

reader, anonymous, writes (15 February 2010): Mmmm.. now you can see why the wife left! Don't get involved with this chap however much you like him as he is a fantasist. People like this or pathological liars as they are technically called truly believe that what they are saying at that moment in time is the truth. They are dangerous to spend time with as they normally are unable further down the line to differentiate between right and wrong. If confronted they will normally change the subject or say that you misunderstood. They will never admit that they made it up or are in the wrong. By all means keep him as a friends but take everything he says with a pinch of salt and don't get involved romantically.
