Wow.
Steph, I don't think this has anything AT ALL to do with you. Maybe Adrian doesn't realize it himself, but I think he's trying to find reasons why it will not work with you so that he can return to England with a clear conscience. I truly don't think it's about you.
It angers me that people end relationships like this, digging the knife in when it's really not necessary. If you want to leave, just leave; don't pour salt in the wound. Do the classy thing, just go. This is showing you another side of Adrian, and I'm sorry, but it's not a nice one.
There is absolutely no point in hurting you like this, other than to belittle you and make you feel worse about yourself. I thought he was better than that. Actually, this is a good thing, Steph. While it hurts now, at least you know that he's the kind of person who would do this to you. He's doing you a favor, finding out NOW what he's really like.
You have a lot going for you, and you can prove it now. If it were me, I would reach down into the deep recesses of myself to pull out the very best in me, to show his family the kind of classy person I am. I would have them over as planned, and I would put on the biggest smile I could muster up. I would show them a fabulous time, be the best I could possibly be. And then, when they left, I'd kick Adrian's sorry A$$ out with a big smile and an incredible kiss that he'd never forget. And then I'd forget he ever existed, while he returns to England with a big question mark over his head, wondering if he made the biggest mistake of his life.
Then, after he left, I'd break down. I'd get it all out of my system, and then I'd pick myself up, dust myself off, and MOVE ON. You deserve better, don't settle for anything less, Steph. Frankly, I think, after you get through the grieving, you'll do soooo much better without him.
BIGGGG HUG!
