I have a friend who met someone on this site and fell head over heels in a matter of days. I belive she is being scammed,but I can't make her see it. She so much wants to belive him that nothing I say has any effect. I don't want her to be hurt even more than I want her to lose the money.
It's hard when you care about someone and can't help them. I want to yell and scream and shake her, but no matter who it is thier going to do what they want and belive what they want. She's a grownup and sometimes people have to learn the hard way.
I met someone on here who is also overseas,but he has never asked me for a penny and I the same with him.
Well this one isn't really a rant, but you have to keep people coming back shomehow ,right? Not that I really care if another living soul ever sees this. I wanted to clarify a few things. I live in the United States( that title really is a joke. We could hardly be more seperate.) I recive disablity income from the government at around $700.00 a months. Now while I am happy to be getting anything at all. I have never understood exactly how they figure what we can live on? I am in a mostly rural area and some things cost less;like houseing. Now that water bill I was talking about in my last entry is more than what I get a month. Because the the economy orginagations that try to help people are straped along with churches. More people needing help and less people able to contribute finacialy. Even on my meger income I was able to donate a small amount to several charities every month. Now I'm the one in need of charity. I know hard times don't last forever and things will eventually get better,but sometimes it can be so hard waiting for that day.
It's just you have all these people in the world who would do wonderful things for others if they had the money and then you have people who have the money who are so selfish and self absorbed. Please don't think I am saying all wealthy people are selfish. There are many who do a great deal for others. I wish sometimes that there were more of those people in the world, insead of the ones who are only worried about thier bottom line.
Sometimes I am so tired of people. They want to pull you in ten differant directions at once. For some reason the people around me seem to think I'm smarter than I really am at certain things. Like computers. All I know is what I had to figure out on my own. But I get treated like the know it all tech person. I have someone waiting for me to show them how to use the webcam on thier laptop right now, and I have no idea.
On another note, I hate being broke. I know, everyone dose,but I mean really broke. No food in the fridge, no car, no running water cause you can't pay the bill(had a leak), broke. Have you ever felt compleatly out of options? Where breaking the law starts to look good? Now I would never do that, but it dosen't mean I haven't thought about it.You see all these people on tv buying compleatly unnessasary things like jets and $1000 shoes and handbags. And you start wondering what it is that gets people who don't have a clue about what's impportant in life get so much and all your trying to do is just squeak by.
Has anyone ever had this problem? You fall hard for someone and they say that they love you too, but they don't want to be with you becasue they are afraid that something witll happen and they will lose you as a friend too. I think it is a legitimet concern for someone who has been hurt before.
he has some other issues too, but he can be a great guy and I have seen first hand the type of women that he winds up with. They are all people who have similar problems and he dosn't really have to even care about let alone love.
Some people have said that it is just a ploy to get me to keep doing things for him, but I have heard from several family members of his that he dose love me.
Even people who think I deserve better than him never say it's because he dosen't love me. I just keep going back and forth on the issue. And sometimes it is so hard to eevn be around him, expecialy when he's around another female. I know I have no right but I get so jelous and I start to feel sick to my stomach. dunno:
