Hello again, jlt1221
I feel I owe you an apology - I was quite sure of what to say to you last night, I realized too late that your were probably scammed by a woman, of course that was after I sent you my original message. I just wanted to say, it doesn't matter who you were scammed by, which gender, the fact is, you were scammed and obviously very hurt.
Most of us on this site have been scam vicitims, that's why we are here, we all found this site by accident, but I can promise you, that we are all healing, if not healed, BUT we are all here to help the new person, that has just realized what has happened to them.
You have to remember, as I said, this is not your fault, you honestly thought you were helping someone in trouble, we all thought the same thing with our scammers, never dreaming in a million years, that this was a dishonest person, robbing our hearts and bank accounts.
I would enjoy talking with you further, I think, your positive attitude of get moving and looking forward is great, but please post as much info as you can about this scammer --- it will help you and many others. Keeping this a secret from friends or family does not help in the healing process, you have to confide in someone, and I found, confiding to people on this site was very helpful, no one sat in judgement, they jumped in and said we are here for you. And if you don't want to be in the forum of the Chat Room, post more here on this site, or contact one of us via private message.
We all want to help you heal, and we listen with an open mind, not a judgemental one. Please post your scammers info and come talk to us in the Chat Room, we are here for you, or as I said, just keep posting here in the Healing area until you are ready to talk.
In the meantime, do what you feel is necessary for you to do to get back on your feet and regain your balance. But please talk to someone you can trust and this is a trustworthy site.
Regards, RF
