The One I Ran AwayPosted : 24 Aug, 2016 10:34 PMMy story begins on Facebook and ended here. About 3 weeks ago a church member of mine sent me a friend request. After making sure it was her legit page, I accepted. That was okay. So, about a day or two I'm strolling along through the NewsFeeds on FB and ran across a list of people that I might know...according to FB. If you use it then you'll know what I'm talking about. There was this guy I thought was quite handsome so I sent him a brief message telling him how much I appreciated his service for our country...he was military. Some may already know where I'm going with this but just keep reading. He responded "thank you" and complemented me on how beautiful my smile was. Of course I was flattered. The next day he sends me a friend request. I thought, no problem because he's friends with my church member. I accepted and for the next three days were chatting every chance he gets. He's asking all the right questions to make me feel like he's really into me and he's saying the most loving things to just make me fall over hill in love or lust with him. We talked about everything but what really sparked my interest besides his looks was our love for God. By this time I'm feeling this guy then on day three he asked me for...money! The record scratched and came to a halt...just like that! Long story short, he apologize, stated he would rather keep our friendship rather than lose me over money. But I noticed his attention span became short, so I began to investigate. I downloaded this face recognition app and discovered he was a scammer. And when I called him out about this he blocked me from contacting him. I was like cool...i still got my money, my heart still intact but more importantly I still had my dignity. Now moving on ti here, CDFF...ive seen many of handsome men but i guess their not enthusiastic about well shaped curvy vivacious or full-figured women. But this one guy noticed me before I noticed him. Omg! He was HANDSOME, SEXY AND EASY IN THE EYES! His baby blue eyes were beautiful! I will not disclose his name mainly because I want him for myself. Anyhow, have you ever read a profile and was like too good to be true. He was fascinated by my pics and loved my curves. So, to nip this thing in the bud before I went out to buy my wedding dress I investigated. I discovered his LinkedIn profile through face recognition app and he seemedt to be legit. I had no idea of how to use the silly app or how to operate it so I clicked and it said your request has been sent. Oh boo-boo! I figured he doesn't know my name he'll never know it was me. I am so honest sometimes I make me sick. The next day I got a msg saying in the subject box Linked In. Oooopoopoo! So explained and apologizd but he wasn't hearing that. He stated it weirded him out to know I could find him without knowing his name. Soooo...long story short...i think i let a good one get away with my foolishness. Was I wrong for trying to protect myself from possibly being scammed? |

The One I Ran AwayPosted : 18 Sep, 2016 10:36 PMNo worries, if a guy is legit, he should have nothing to hide. I do not worry about the skeletons of the past. Everyone has some, just some closets are bigger than others. |

The One I Ran AwayPosted : 20 Sep, 2016 09:19 AMWe are not the savior but we are learned by Him, scammer is not a problem, the problem is being worthy of our own savior, and sinners give to receive again, but we are taught to give not hoping to receive again, and also to give when asked, more than what we are asked for, to keep Gods ways does not make us weaker, but stronger, scammers may have fear of God if they see God around you, a more generous nature than complainers who already have too much or would share all they have and have nothing left over to worry about.. |

The One I Ran AwayPosted : 28 Sep, 2016 07:03 AMI didn't ask about the value of money. Let's try this again. Are you advising people that they should give their money to scammers? |

The One I Ran AwayPosted : 30 Sep, 2016 08:57 PMBefore you attack me again... Remember that God's grace is offered to each of us, including you and me. Grace is what allows us to not fully understand a commandment or other lesson to be learned in His word; grace is what God offers to those who come to know him late in their lives and reap the same reward and blessings as one who has followed Him from childhood; and grace is what I offer you if you cannot bring yourself to honor my request. |
