Hi lostreverie

I see this is your first post. Welcome to PC! I read your story and I am sorry that this happened to you. There are a lot of red flags that come up. The fact that you met this guy online and the short length of time before you got to know him play into your outcome. Do you usually fall so fast for guys and do you give in most of the time in other situations as well? Just food for thought. You might be setting yourself up for disappointment if you have high expectations too fast. If I sound judgmental, I am not. I am just lending a non professional view of this situation. I really hope you can move on and find someone who will appreciate you. Just go a lot slower and see if that will help.
