SEEKING FOR MY REAL TRUE LOCE :mrgreen:
about myself:
I am not sure what to say. I have been through some very interesting and tough times over the last year or so. I spent a year in Baghdad in the military that was very disturbing. now am on deployment in Kuwait.I have seen people get blown the fuck up, shot, and maimed. I have feared for my life and lost close friends. I have learned about my own strengths and weaknesses and what is truly important in life. I only wish I did not have to learn it in combat zone. Soul searching is a cliche, I know, but I did a lot of that And I know now that I am better off trying to figure myself out. Not that I have really, but I do know that I wasted lots of time being concerned about pleasing others and keeping up appearances. I thought that just looking happy was enough. I now know that I was wrong.

I'm Cage, 40yrs am a widower lost be wife 4 years back, I had a son Ryan she live with my mum in Germany. Ryan is 6yrs now lost her mother we he was 2yrs you caught my attention and I wanted to say hello. All I can say is I find you intriguing, and very beautiful, and I believe we would enjoy finding out if we click.

This guy goes buy Porter Baugh now met him on datehookup.com. facebook: pottyboagh or baughporter and you will see his pics on there. [email protected] and he has a yahoo account also. He got me, but not for a lot I have turned in all information to the military, FBI, IC3, and to my local police in gilbert AZ. This guy is still trying to talk to me even after I told him the gig was up. Either it is very stupid or he thinks I am. So watch out for this guy.

Hi lynnduko, good to see to found this older post and know the truth. Do not tell your scammer you know about him- just drop contact and leave him wondering. I am sorry to hear you lost anything to him but that was his whole purpose for contacting you- he wanted your money. You just wanted someone to love and care about you. You didn't deserve to be deceived.
Even if you don't get any satisfaction from telling law enforcement, know this. Posting here helps someone else keep from being scammed. If you can post some of the emails and any chats so they see the language, that would help as well.
Take care of yourself and take time to heal from the mess this makes for your heart. It gets better with time and remember, you got the last laugh
