What about a woman's personality might make her an attractive target for lies and scams?
Posted : 18 Jul, 2014 04:10 PM

So, I wonder if there is something about my personality or my character that makes some men feel I am an easy target for deception and cons. In prior relationships (meeting through traditional avenues, and not online) I have had men lie for months, years even -- about age, marital status, and their intentions. I SO want to learn the lesson God has for me in this, so that I never have to face that test again.



Oddly enough, I am SO SUPER INQUISITIVE that I often figure out the deception. However, I wonder why these men pursue me in the first place. Any ideas?

Satan is the one that deceives you. He wants you to suffer but you are a child of God and the fact that you are not yet married to any of them means that God is leading your life. Ask God for discernment and pray hard so that God can protect you and give you His best. Don't rush into anything unless it's God who's showing you clearly.

Thanks for the encouragement. I do believe God is saving me from disaster and for His best. It just makes me feel frustrated that someone would take the time to deceive and attempt to hurt someone they don't know.

The tares don't target specific blades of wheat, the wheat grows together and the tares spring forth from amongst them.



Trust in the Lord.

Excellent and encouraging comments. Us sisters are daughters of the most high God, his diamonds, precious jewels, worth so

much more than given to. We are the apple of his eye, we sometimes feel why, and what is it, but he is keeping you for the

one who will respect and be fidelis, faithful to you. It's not easy

for the men, as they feel they have a lot to live up to, our ideals.

God is our guide and lead in all things. Let us try to stay focus, don't keep your eyes off him, and he will bring revelation.



Lots of love to the single sisters

Well the number one and first thing that comes to mind that would make a woman more of a target is if she is from America. I've been hit up a number of times and I think that's why. Around the world people from this country are seen as rich, even if they are not. Of course American money also goes a lot further in a lot of places. Maybe just saying that you are dirt poor would help lol but I get the impression most scammers don't even read profiles.

As for just plain deceptive men and stull I think spiritual discernment would be the biggest help. Knowing who to turn down and who to trust is the biggest challeng a lot of us face.
