I've been going out with this kid for about a week and a half now. He has a very bad reputation for smoking alot, drug use, getting in fights and stealing things. Everyone is scared of him so they don't know his good side. Actually he is very nice, considerate, sweet and ready for commitment.

Sometimes he lies to impress me though. Just one example, he told me he is 100 percent Irish but when I said I was Italian, he said he was 50% Irish and 50% Italian. He also buys me lots of jewelry to impress me I guess, but he doesn't need to.

I guess I'm just kind of shocked. But if he really feels like he has to be like that to keep me, I'm not sure if I actually want to keep dating him. This happened with all my previous boyfriends because I figure out their flaws as I get to know them and I start to drift away.

So Is he worth my time? Is it just that I have really high expectations for a guy?

Please Help!

hmmm well first of all he sounds nice. if u like him stay with him, but if you dont think its gonna go anywhere i'd break up. He seems to notice you dont find him as atractive as before because he's showering you with gifts. thats a way of showing his insecurity of himself. so tell him that you dont need gifts to be happy.(if thats true) and i'm not saying your picky but girls just move on and want new things its perfectly normal, but just try to wait it out a little longer before you leave a guy. if he lies its again just trying to impress you. ok well tell me if i helped!
