I object very very strongly to the whole notion of "the one". There's no "one". Any given person could be rampantly happy with a great number of other people. The romantic notion of "the one" is a fantasy designed to make us unhappy and to have relationships not work, and perpetrated on us by our love songs and romantic movies.
I'm extremely delighted with the woman I'm sharing my life with. She's A one, for sure. But is she the only person on the planet with whom I could be leading a wonderful life? And if so, what are the odds that I'd meet her, out of 6.3 billion people on the planet? What are the odds ANYONE would meet their "one".
And don't get me started on fate!!
In short, you're being silly. This guy wants a future, he wants a life with someone. He found someone before with whom he could see that working. And now he's found (and kept, it sounds like) you, with whom he can also see that working. What's the bad?
