Need advice on what to do with my suspicious BF

Quote: DJTeddyBear

If you've paid ant attention at all, you know that for whatever silly reason, this board attracts people looking for relationship advice.

I stand by my comment.

That's true. For every one that makes it to the forum, ten are sent to me by Email.

That makes no sense.

This is a gambling board.

The lonely hearts, the broken hearted, the dazed and confused ... they'll always have craigslist.com's "rants and raves."

I thought it was a Spanish language board.

It is possible to "get had" with a fake post alright, but I think this one is for real.

I second the advice to just cut your losses. You'll never see any money and if you cut him off from your money and your affections he will slowly disappear. Yep, I know about stalkers, but I don't think he fits the profile.

Top Threads as of today:

1. Spanish word of the Day
2. Craps Strategy Investment
3. There is No G-D
4. The hoax that is the 1.41%
5. Celebrate Religion Here

Even the ones that are about gambling are crap.

I didn't grow up in a cave. There just isn't much I lose by responding to an advice thread... If the person made it up, I lost 60 seconds of my life that I would have just spent on a different website. So why assume the person is making it up?

The "grow up in a cave" reference was based on your asking why a man would possibly want to post as a woman on a message board: based on what I have read elsewhere, this sort of thing is not particularly uncommon on the internet.

It is but one small part of a troll's repertoire.

I cannot provide the "reason" why anonymous internet posters sometimes pretend to be someone / something they are not, but it happens.

The OP does have a good story, however: it's got a good beat, you can dance to it: I'd give in an 86.

My advice: run for your life. Drop everything, pack up, and move away, far away. Close the internet business. Lose the investment. Run. Don't call him. Change your number. And GET AWAY.

How people can trust one who is cheating I'll never know. He's lied on numerous occasions and he has a restraining order. He's terrible with money. In short, he has the potential to be dangerous. All of the "redeeming qualities" - his large penis, the quality of his lovemaking, his tenderness, "whatever", should easily be overshadowed by the fact that he is lying and cheating, not only to his wife, the mother of one or more of his children, and you.

There are plenty of men out there with "redeeming qualities" without the lying, cheating, emotional and financial baggage out there. You can do better.

This is the probably the best idea yet. There's a (relatively) famous picture on the internet:

It's gone around for years. Now, I don't know if it's fake or not, but perhaps this is the best way to approach these types of questions.

So, in answer to the OP: Quit playing the roulette wheel.

Odds are 100% you need to dump the jerk and not look back.
