Anyways it’s just sad that he continues BSing you and you believe what he says. He was killing himself not long ago, wasn’t he? And putting you in a will. Now he’s going to jail. It never ends with him. He continues manipulating you. Please just stop believing him. You don’t want to start being mistrustful of men but it’s so essential that you become more careful and less trusting in general

At this case I guess all you could do is take the money and cut all ties if you don’t want to pursue it legally.
I'm not street smart. My father was very trusting and naive, and I think I learned it from him. It's gotten both of us into some hot water... we've both been easily swindled and scammed.

I know I need to wisen up. It's hard for me - I always want to believe the best in people, but I understand that's not really realistic. Many scums in this world.. so I need to wisen up.
