SO I am super new to this kind of thing, this is my 1st time on one of these sites & I thought I was being so careful & almost feel for this guy, he was absolutely perfect, I knew something had to be wrong. We talk on Mingle, met & were dating about month or two when poof no calls nothing. We always had a great time together, we would cuddle, he made me breakfast, it was heaven, well so he disapears & come to find out from his friends his real name & he is 10 years older than he said, & a wanted registered sex offender, omg you would not beleive the shock & horror I felt. I am in disbeleif that the person I was seeing is the person that is wanted. I just can't see it. So what do I do? Turn him in, report him? I was so pissed & worried at the same time. Why lie? I am a really honest person & it just mystifies me that he would lie? Y to get woman? What was he looking for really if he lied about it all. So my 1st experience was very upsetting.
The thing that bothers me the most is how good of liar he was & should I save someone else from him? |

Wow, I'm really sorry that happened to you. It's not that surprising though; there are alot of liars and scammers on the internet- it doesn't just happen to women either, I used to talk to a man on here and he got taken in by a woman who turned out to be one of those Nigerian scammers who ask you for money.
As for this guy being a sex offender, if he's already registered, I don't see the point of reporting him, unless he tried to assault or you anything. If so, then by all means, turn him in. Otherwise, I'd be sure to block him from contact, in case he tries, and be careful when you go out at night, in case you told him where you live. Thanks for sharing this story, it's a good heads up for women who might be "too trusting" of a "great" guy they've met online. I don't know what tips to give you, I guess you could do some investigating of the next person on your own, but that's only if they give you a real name and other information. Good luck in the future if you decide to keep dating online. |

WOW -- that is scary hon.
Well, the most important thing is you found out early and you are safe. I know it's easy for me to say, but you have to do what you feel is right. Me personally, I don't know what I would do. Would I want to protect other females from possibly getting physically hurt or worse (YES) or would I step back and be scared. Tough call. I think I answered my own question -- TURN HIM IN!!!! Good Luck |

Do you have kids? That's what he was after if he's a child molester. I say turn him in if he's wanted

I'm so sorry to hear what happened to you,just remember there are good people and bad. What you have to do is try to figure them out early on. Listen to the answers that are give, pay attention to the question's that are asked. We men get burned also. Remember if it seems to good to be true it usually is.I think you let this guy in to quick,if he's being true to you, he'll wait

Wow..a couple of months and the guy kept his real name from you? That's just crazy!
I don't know at this point if you can save anyone else, do what you can legally I guess. But for sure protect yourself and your home from this guy. Get new locks or whatever you need to do to feel safe. Yikes! |

Hmm, why do people lie? Fear of rejection for one. A registered sex offender, depending on what it was exactly, I'm sure doesn't have a lot to look forward to when it comes to love. A lot of it depends on the circumstances, but would you have had anything to do with him had you known from the beginning? Don't misunderstand, I'm not saying it's a good excuse or that anyone should ever lie, but maybe some insight might help you cope.
I however would walk away. Trust was shattered from the beginning because he made himself to be someone he wasn't, which is a HUGE RED FLAG, and no relationship can survive without trust. I'm sure this has left a scar, but I can attest to the fact that there are good guys out there, and they're worth the struggle. |
