Guest Posted January 7, 2007 Posted January 7, 2007 She is from Colombia and is only 18 years old. He swears that he never intended to get emotionally involved with her but now it is very difficult to communicate and even be intimate because he is so into this relationship. He feels that he has to care for her as much as he says he cares for me even though they have never met and probably never will. His reason is that she is sick with cancer and that although she started the affair he should have stopped her but didn´t do it. She has asked him for money and our phone bills are very high. Even our savings suffered during this relationship. My in-laws are very supportive. We do not have kids but were hoping to have them this year. Now don´t know what to do or even why I ended up in this situation. I feel that what he considers love is only an addiction. He always has been very attracted to internet but never had an affair with another woman. For those of you out there who think that cheating on the internet is nothing because nothing physical happens, let me tell you the infidelity is real, the pain is real. Be careful with this because you can destroy a safe reality for a few months of fantasy.
whichwayisup Posted January 9, 2007 Posted January 9, 2007 DO NOT have children with this man. He is sending a woman, who he really doesn't know MONEY??? Hello, scam!! Marriage counselling MUST happen because he's confusing love for fantasy here, big time. If he chooses her over you then he has some serious issues he needs to sort out. He has to end it with her and say goodbye if he wants to stay married to you.
Craig Posted January 9, 2007 Posted January 9, 2007 Yeah, this sounds like Internet scam #342-B. Textbook.
whichwayisup Posted January 9, 2007 Posted January 9, 2007 I wonder if this 18 year cancer ridden girl isn't really a 40 year old man, somewhere across the world doing scams and taking money from not only him, but others....I saw something on TV recently about this, actually it was on DR PHIL. They did a whole show on internet relationships and scams...scary sheeyt!
Zaira Posted January 9, 2007 Posted January 9, 2007 Your husband has been sucked in and he needs to wake up to reality. If I was in your position I'd offer an ultimatum. How could be be so stupid?
Pink Amulet Posted January 9, 2007 Posted January 9, 2007 *nods* Find yourself a man with half a brain. This is a complete scam. In all honesty, you yourself don't seem too much brighter if you are even considering having children with this scoundrel.
crazy_grl Posted January 9, 2007 Posted January 9, 2007 I'm in agreement with the others. Not only is your guy cheating, he is ridiculously dense.
