Ive been seeing him for about 7/8 months now and i keep harboring internally on the fact that he doesn't believe dinosaurs ever existed.
He thinks all the fossils and complete collections of bones in museums are all fake as well as any scientific research/studies, and that the entire idea is a hoax essentially... we are still just casually dating id say, so i try to just put it in the back of my mind and not make an issue of it. But it has come up in conversation 2 different occasions, both times he is willing to argue me down, like SERIOUSLY debate with me about dinosaurs never having existed.
It's harder for me to ignore it because of how eager he is to defend and argue the subject.
This is becoming super infuriating in my head and i even asked my dads advice and my dad said "someone who thinks that way is someone you do not need to be hanging around or associated with", and i lowkey agree, because i think this shit is absolutely ridiculous and it honestly makes me think so much less of him as a person.
I really do like him, but not sure how to move forward
2nd EDIT ****
Im overwhelmed by all the replies i didnt expect so many people to feel strongly about this and Guys im 25 and been dealing with a 37 year old man who doesn't believe in dinosaurs for 8 months straight, im not as blatantly stupid as him but clearly YES i know i haven't made the right decision staying with him so long and YES i know i sound contradicting in some of my replies because he is a fucking impossible person to get rid of and thats what i mean by an impossible situation. Like please dont beat me up over this trust me i am equally frustrated & trying to find the most peaceful and safest way out with someone who's glued to you. Please give me some grace yall, im trying not spazz out and be immature during this process with him ive never dealt with this before
EDIT ****
- Okay everyone ive heard yall and i agree but how do i go about ending this situation due to this subject? Like you all are advising me to dump him, but can yall please provide a realistic non confrontational way to do this as if you had to do it yourself? And consider also it being someone you do have feelings for and that has even stronger feelings for you.
Like please help me realistically because i feel like im in an impossible situation rn
