It generally is. Although Doc is the sweetest of the sweetest there is always something that don't quite jive with him and Nite can attest to this as I have shown her the correspondences that we have - even debated about it. I thought that was because English is not his second language. After discussion with dear Rain, I decided it is due time I check his background with Google. Guess what I found? Red alert all over dating scam alert websites. Apparently he is a professional scammer and his range of victims has no boundaries, even gays are in his hit list.
How do I feel?
Stupid and gullible? A bit. Ok ok... more than a bit.
Angry? Actually no. Seriously no...
Relieve? YES, it seems my instinct is right on the ball. Thank God I trusted them.
What am I doing now? Well the experts ask to cease contact immediately but..I am not one to always follow instructions. So I wrote back to him, instead of my usual conservative self, I will now slowly falling in love with him. I also slipped in a hint that troubles are brewing at home..sorry my dear sisters but one of you will suddenly be falling very sick and need money for surgery.
At times like this I am thankful for my less developed F that does not let me fall so easily and let me use my impeccable logic and rationale to work things out. I'd image someone more romantically inclined might have fallen faster and harder. Not to say I am completely immune. Just takes longer to thaw.
Actually this is my 2nd scam encounter. The first one was intercepted by eHarmony before he can do damage. Does this puts me off online dating altogether? Well my profile is still open but only Mr Honest and Mr Laywer so far. But the year is still long..who knows what is going to happen next month.
So God, if you can't give me a good match then at least let me have the wisdom to spot the bad ones.
