More Caution About ONLINE Dating

Once again, a local woman was scammed by a man acting like an online boyfriend.  Hey, online dating is creepy.  Just stop it.  You are not that desperate.  You don’t want to meet someone desperate.  People who frequent online dating sites are desperate and living a fantasy.  These automatically mean they are NOT the type of people you want to hang out with, let alone marry!  Meet people the old fashioned way: through your friends and family and network of people you trust.  Anybody can say anything and be anything online.  You don’t want to date a fantasy.  You want to date a real person!

This lady lost $12000.  She lost more than that.  Now she has her dignity to piece back together.
