She could tell him that she's one of the lizard people shapeshifting as a human woman, and that her higher-ups will be pleased with the assistance he has provided in maintaining her cover. She can then assure him that he will be spared when the final battle happens.

Now she must bid him farewell, return to Area 51, and file her report.

At least he has a job. :-)

He also has other bizarre views - aliens, new world order, the government plotting against us (we live in Australia), capitalism (we should be free to do what we want instead of working), encouraging anarchist ways of living, etc. On facebook, he posts a lot of rants about these things and when he provides a source, it is a study done by ONE person or dodgy looking news site, etc.
That said, 'birds of a feather flock together'. In other words, what could you possibly find interesting/attractive about this guy - if you didn't have/understand (at least some of) the same 'beliefs'/ideas/interests?

I’m more curious about your sanity than his. Why would you waste any energy listening to his nonsense? I’m wondering if it’s the potential drama you’re drawn to, not the guy. Having to defend him to your family and friends and the arguments that inevitably will ensue after they get to know him.

Hi all an update - I ended up breaking things off very gently, saying we have different values/goals.

He basically accused me of being 'triggered' by his words (around Covid, vaccines etc) because 'deep down' I knew 'the truth' and was triggered because the government 'lied to me.'

If I were not an atheist, I might say a little prayer along the lines of "Oh, Lord, please send no fuirther mansplaning tools of the patriarchy to my fellow in the sisterhood, for that last one was an epic gasbag and none among your daughters deserves to have that dunderheaded pomposity inflicted upon her, regardless of who ate the stupid apple. Amen."

Yep, that's the million-dollar question. :-)

Do you think he's dangerous? Meaning...do you think he may stalk you? I'm asking because it doesn't sound like he took the very gentle breakup well. And it's obvious he's nuts.
