I have been in bad relationships before. I have been emotionally and physically abused, and now my self esteem is low. Every now and then, i get a bit of courage and try to meet a guy.

A couple of weeks ago, I tried the internet - first time ever. I met a really nice guy. We went out a couple of times, then last Friday he told me he would pick me up from my house for a date. He came in for a glass of wine, we ended up kissing then ended up in bed.

For our dates, he came on really strong. He said he wanted to live with me, he loved my body, he wanted to travel with me...

When we were having sex he said we would do this all the time... I asked him to use a condom and he asked if I trusted him? I said I did - he said 'trust me' we will be together forever....

Then, he stopped for a break... he told me he left his wallet in his car - he got dressed 'to get his wallet', went out the door and never came back....

(((((((( swanno )))))) I am sorry that this person has hurt you, I wish there was something to say that could make it all better but instead all I have to offer is hugs.

I'm so very sorry Swanno...

The world can be a very unkind place and we need to build and enforce boundaries to protect ourselves from the wicked.

But please don't let this narcisistic creature deture you from a wonderfull maturing relationshsip...there are good people out there...

With care,

Lenny

Thank you so much.

I am glad to be able to write the story down here. I can't share it with my friends. It's so embarrassing to be in situations constantly where i am treated badly - I do feel a fool, so it feels good to get it out!
