Of course, Coz I dont like to be bias here. I know,I cant please all people here,each of us has own opinions and beliefs. I am just sharing what I am going thru. And I dont expected this will sounds nice to everyone. Anyway,at the end of the day, I will decide for myself and will face the consequences. Jenibele, I hope you will not encounter one of them along the way...
Its probably true to say that most of us have been conned before at one time or another, there are some clever unscrupulous people out there, its their job to con people, its their income after all.
@roaming-on There seems to be some problem with your idea of a start of a new friendship. I understand you have been conned, and you are probably very cautious now but if you don't change your mindset about the whole thing nothing will come out of those communications. I know that's a very tiring thing to do, to start a communication with a person and see how you get along in the next few months. As for me, I have had the pleasure of being friends with people online. And they took almost a year before they developed. 1. Do not expect that he will become your boyfriend. Just be a cool girl that this person likes to talk to. Because you know, friendship is the start of something beautiful anyway. 2. I like what knighstrike said, if two things don't add up, clarify to the person. If he can't give you a logical explanation you have your answer. 3. It takes a lot of talking to know a person. It takes time to learn about him. If he doesn't have a Facebook I personally would not take him seriously. You should have to see him live on the camera as well. You know @roaming-on it would need a lot of patience but when it's that early don't expect anything it will help you move forward sooner. Don't ignore red flags. I have never been conned. It took a lot of time before I earned their full trust and vice versa. I didn't just talk to anybody I talked to the people who seemed interested, you know because they will mention some of the things you wrote on your profile, you know they are already trying to know you. Whose say, made sense to me, who I know spent a lot of time just trying to get my attention. Because they are more likely to be serious. I'm not having a go with you but as much as I try to understand I'm also kinda annoyed that the gentlemen in here joked about you this way. As a Filipina, act that way even when you're online trying to meet people. You should be chased.
Hello roaming-on! Chatting for a week is too early but if you have doubts, just move on. I think there's nothing wrong confronting someone, it's not a big deal if someone's being honest. Don't waste your time on him.
Jenibele, it seems you are taking this too seriously! take a deep breath....life is too short. but anyway, thanks for your concern, but I am old enough to decide for myself. And I have brain to know what is wrong and right. Enjoy your life and be bless!
Hi iHeartJa! well I dont see any reason to pursue talking to this person anymore,so I stop talking to him, my conscience told me his not worth of my time and effort. Maybe, I will just let love look for me and not me look for him...lol Anyway, thanks for the criticism I got here and for the helpul advices too..
I'm not taking this that seriously because after all I'm not the one being told desperate but nor do I find this funny. I do apologize if it seemed I was having a go with you. It's not my intention to criticize your way of making new friends.
I dont want to argue with anyone.....but for you to know, no one told me on this forum I am desperate! And I am not! Go on to your life...and dont exert your energy on me. Any way, I found it not sense ...
