Hi Kindhearted,
What you are feeling is quite normal, I dont know from first hand experience but I have beem in touch with many victims of romance scams and the feelings they describe are little different.
The money is generally not as hurtful as the broken heart, the bank account will heal in time, but will you ever be able to trust another with your feelings?
The answer is yes but it will take time, each person is differnt and how long it will take is entirely up to you, some people find satisfaction in learning to bait, others keep clear of the internet and online relations all together, just do whatever feels right for you, just dont communicate with him again, it will only prolong it for you.
I know you already know this, but the person you fell in love with does not exist, it is simply a made up charactor that lives only in the mind of an African thief and the hearts of his victims, you need to remind yourself of that and move beyond this.
I can give you little good news but the one thing I can promise, the information you have posted here will help others, thank you.
If you do have any questions, now or in the future, please dont hesitate to ask
