When I first got a computer, I "fell" for this guy in a chat room. The first time we chatted he got upset over something that he read in my expectations. Didn't ask for an explaination or talk it over, just flew off the handle. I walked away, didn't bother me. He tried to contact me a few weeks later I'd have nothing to do with him. Turns out we had a mutal friend and he got her to talk to me and give him another chance. Someone that would go to all that trouble had to be serious right? wrong! He would talk a good game, then when we get close he'd go "poof", always after a nice conversation, no disagreements, and ending with "love" (well that level of it any way)...always returning with some lame excuse for going away. This happened off and on for about three years. [sm=boohoo.gif]Yes, stupid me, I was in love. oh and I could give him the best excuse for his behavior, he had a bad marriage and a horrific divorce...so...ya know...boo hoo....lol Then on one of his "trips" back to me...he made the mistake of telling me he was going to be in my state, so I packed my widdle bag and drove all the way to Dallas to meet him...well...one of the "excuses" that I gave him is that with all he'd been through, if he could just see me, and see I"m flesh and blood and not just words on a computer screen or a voice on the phone, that would be the final connection right? no more games? WRONG! We had a wonderful time, we laughed, we had fun, no disagreements...he called me the day I got home, to make sure I got home ok, another good conversation, talked about the fun we had on the trip and how much closer we felt.... and then....you guessed it, he went poof. That was in 2004. The jerkwad had the nerve to contact me again here a few months ago. It was hard, but I was totally cold and let him know...game was over....so far no more contact and I know you won't believe it at the place you are now....but it's a relief not to hear from him again. These guys have loads of techniques, that always seem to get under our radar. I personally don't see what people get out of playing with other's emotions, saying how wonderful it is, that we have this "connection" and making all these plans to meet, etc. just had one do it to me, just last week...but unfortunately it's the nature of the beast on here....you vent and you move on, I usually put some remark in my journal, then delete it after a day or two...just makes me feel better...LOL ...don't let them own any more of your life than they already have. I wish you luck, and strength....hang in there :>
