[quote=”April Masini”]You’re 17 and you’re in love — with someone you’ve never met because she refuses to meet you even though you’ve driven to her house and left her presents there. This has been going on for 11 months now….. let me set you straight: She is not who she says she is. She’s either not her age, she’s probably not the body type or physical type she’s told you she is, and she may not even be a woman. You’re being catfished. This is a term where people who meet online don’t realize that the other person is not who they say they are — and they maintain the relationship by not meeting so the truth never comes out.
I understand that you lied to your friends about the relationship because you were embarrassed that the two of you have not met in person — but you lied because you know what normal is. You know that in a normal relationship, people meet and they date and they spend time together in real life. You know your relationship is not normal — and that’s a good sign of health for you! But you have to stop lying. That’s just going to get you into trouble with the healthy friendships you do have.
Here’s my advice: Understand that you’re in love with someone who isn’t honest, real or interested in you beyond your keeping her from being lonely. She’s conducting the same relationship she has with you, with other people at the same time. That’s what these folks do. I know this is hurtful and disappointing, but it’s the truth. You need to move on. Stay off the internet for dates. Instead, focus on meeting women to date in your real life. You’ll be a lot happier — and healthier.[/quote]
Nono she is real, we’ve face timed, I know her friends she knows mine, she’s given me her clothes, she’s faithful too, trust me I know it. She’s honest, real & interested in me, she loves me. We both planned out our future together but she’s just too scared. And now she won’t see me because she’s mad that I work too much.
