RE: 4 Signs You're Getting Played Online

I must have a neon sign above my head. Reading F**k wits apply here!!!!!
At my age I would like to believe that Im not gullible. Maybe I am.
I had been talking with a guy, he was a simple man, TICK. He lived the lifestyle that is my ultimate dream lifestyle, TICK. He wanted a lifelong relationship, he had been single for almost 30 years raising his kids, TICK.
Skip ahead, we made plans for me to move over, with a return ticket, then get married 4 months after I got there. We would apply for a spousal visa/green card. I sold a lot of my stuff. All my sled dog gear. Put down some of my team, re homed others. When and said my goodbyes to my 95 year old Mom, 2 of my kids, and my grandkids.
Got on a plane on the 30th July. I was back home on the 11th Aug. Owing my Mom $6k for another ticket home, because my return ticket couldnt be changed or refunded.
I am BRUTALLY HONEST, I am loyal once Ive bonded with someone. I tell everyone that comes into my life, that if they lie to me its over. The truth is like a slap, it stings, then its over. Id bet my left kidney that none of you can remember being hurt by the truth. A lie! It sticks like S*#t to a blanket. It festers, eats away at you, mentally, and emotionally.
Look how friggin hard can it be?
Honesty.
Loyalty.
Communication.
Open.
I do not want to change anybody, I wont be changed by anybody.
What I do want is someone/my person, that we can start this last chapter of life together. To explore each other, in every aspect life has. To create our little piece of paradise. A simple life, hunting, foraging, growing, as much of what we need to servive. To spend time together, sharing the workload. To laugh with, to cry with, to argue with over non personal issues, like which bands better etc.
For us to be equally happy doing things on our own.
Sure LOVE is great, but personally being Completely IN LOVE, when they are the other half of your heart beat, where they are your BEST friend, when you look in each others eyes. When every touch makes you smile and your heart feels warm and full. When everyday, you fall more In Love. When just the thought of loosing them breaks you. When youre together the rest of the world just fades away.
I am still open to finding my person. Dont know for how long though.

RE: The Silent Treatment: Does It Work?

Some men respond by ringing constantly even when you're at work and can't talk . Men are not perfect either , none of us are . Silent treatment is being passive aggressive but better than screaming and shouting at each other like some people do. We can all learn to improve our behaviour if we acknowledge we have a problem but some behaviour is so ingrained a person may need professional help to gain insight and skills to change tge behaviour. The problem then is finding a properly qualified person since some so called therapists know even less than we do ourselves on the subject but happily charge you big professional fee. It's never too late to learn ,to grow ,to become the better version of ourselves.

RE: Scam Baiting.

@ Sheila 47. When people hide behind a screen they do whatever they want as there is no consequences for their behaviour. Ignore, block, move on and never send money to anyone.

RE: Scam Baiting.

Have been giving hell to these perverts (I don't even believe they are human) for several years. I was scammed in 2013 and I have a deep loathing for anyone who hurts another person in any way, shape or form. I have run across many of them in varying sites, but CS seems to be particularly rich.

Last evening was particularly fruitful. I usually come online and there is no one to talk to.... but, last night I had no less that 8 gentlemen who wanted to chat. I looked to make sure the moon wasn't full or something. I do not allow myself to get too engaged in the ways they try to "pull me in". But, one particular man did and I was totally blindsided. No money exchanged, no ugly words were exchanged. This one was clearly a 'native'...meaning nothing in his language remotely intimated that he was in another country or from another country, i.e. Africa!! I can usually spot that so quickly. So, I need to watch myself because I truly was willingly engaging with him. He didn't ask for money, he didn't profess love, he didn't do anything until he ghosted me today. And that made me angrier than if I had sent me a pile of money. It's just such an evil, immature, hateful, despicable way to treat another human being. We have come to be so complacent about "mean" things, bad manners, hateful comments and actions and a whole lack of empathy and compassion to our fellow humans. We are mean. I have no problem with giving them a dose of their own medicine.

Delete, block, & ignore.
Scammers will leave you alone.
