How?
I knew him from work. I respect him for some reasons. He likes me (he said). But from the begining I already saw that we are so different.For example:
- I like simple and comfortable life, he likes complicated and luxury.
- I like to be myself, he likes to be someone else that people around him thinks that's good even those people are not even his friends.
- I like to be consistent, he changes his mind all the time depending on what people around him talking about!
- I think when people love each other, materials become nothing. He thinks love is love, his bank account is his bank account (he talked about this when he mentioned something about his ex-).
....
One day he asked me to be his girlfriend! I told him that it's impossible for me to fall in love with anyone again because the painful I have from love is still too much. I told him that I'm not ready for a new relationship so please look for others.
Yesterday he said his mother wants him get a girlfriend so he needs someone helps to pretend as his girlfriend for 10days during his norther staying in Vietnam by next week!! He said he could appreciated if I could help him with that!!
Sounds like in the movies but it's real and it's happening to me... He is very serious and said his mother has some kind of sick that she may be in a dangerous situation if he doesn't listen to her (to get a girlfriend).
I do not know what to do now... Should I help him to be his girlfriend for 10 days? I wish I knew someone could help him with this as I don't think I will able to be a good actor... :(

Mothers don't get sick, or die if their sons don't have girlfriends.
He sounds like a liar and manipulator. It sounds more like he could be a danger to you.
NO, bad idea...not good for you.
But I could help him...he could tell his mom that he has a girl friend here in Jordan...
If you do as he has asked of you, you will be living a lie for those ten days, what would happen if she decides to stay.... is that what you want, Girl...
....
....
Just trying to help..
It's a good offer...I'm sure his mother will believe him and the good part is I'm far away...so won't insist to meet me right away...this will allow him to buy some time and find a girlfriend for real...
Yes, it all sounds so Hollywood... people don't realise how tragic that town is! Try to find respectful and convincing way to turn him down. I would never normally encourage someone to tell lie, but in this case, if you must, please do!
I think you already know how to do with him from your first description. To pretend as his girlfriend ? it sounds he is a selfish and flatulent person. if you don't want to be hurt and be played, just keep away from him in an safe ,effectively distance ...
Although he does sound full of hot air, I must admit.
Most importantly, once you have committed yourself to do this for him, I suspect you will have little control over whatever happens after that.
Do you... CAN you be sure that you can trust him?
Please recognise your kind desire to help others for what it is, and recognise your attraction to him for what it is (can he "make me fall in love again", or is it something much less than that?). Then be strong in how you go about asking the question of trust, and how you go about deciding what to do.
Hope it all works out well for everyone involved.
