Does this guy still work for your dad? Yes sometimes we're drawn to people who end up being bad for us. If this guy is pushy like this now, imagine how bad it would be if you both were deeply involved. You don't want a BF who watches you like a parent. Take this as learning lesson and watch out for red flags. Even your parents thought he was okay in the beginning, so don't feel bad. Sometimes charismatic, pushy types often end up turning negative.
