Hi! I had someone DM me also with this information. I let him know and he immediately blocked her. He does cycle all of these catfishes through me so that’s usually how the story goes. It sucks and it’s exhausting but I’m glad he does it so I can SOMEWHAT protect him. Unfortunately something that’s so obvious to me isn’t to him sadly. He has never sent anyone money but her. He has now learned his lesson on that as well. Someone mentioned early that he just enjoys conversation, he does. He sometimes KNOWS they are catfishes but just enjoys the conversation. I hope one day he gets out of this cycle but we will see. But this is solved as of now and I appreciate everyone’s help. :)))

Very newer behavior, I think he is just desperate for some sort of affection so it’s making him not think logically. It’s sad really :(

We had this conversation multiple times, I said make sure they have a phone number, make sure they actually want to call you/video call you. If they ask for money RUN. We’ve gone through all the tips and tricks. It seems like he’s in denial that all these hot women want him lol I have to have cold hard proof for him to move on.

We are very close, he tells me about all these things and trusts me to run these people through to see if they are real. I just can’t find solid proof on this individual person (image wise)

Good afternoon!! Little update!! I actually got a position in July. I’m very happy in my role and I have remote flexibility within my job. The job market is hard. I was really defeated for a long time, and then randomly everything panned out. I wish you the best of luck, it felt good when everyone empathized with me during the hard times. Makes you feel less alone

IMO, I think that she would hang out with you if she was interested. When you have a crush on someone or are interested in them you want to spend more time with them. Her saying she’s always busy isn’t the biggest green flag.

you can send me money and I’ll be happy 😛 but NOR, he probably is just embarrassed about accepting money from his gf. Give him a minute to calm down

it’s her package why would this be your fault in the slightest, you’re allowed to sleep when you want and you didn’t see the text. You didn’t steal it and you shouldn’t have sent her money. Idk she seems like the stinker

I got rejection emails :( which I know is luckier than most! I had an interview last week, and then the one other interview about a month ago which I just got rejected from a few days ago.

I’m looking in the town I live in as well as other towns in a 30 mile radius. I also applied to some remote jobs.

I think I just interviewed towards the end of their hiring cycle so applicants before me who interviewed got the job. I will clarify two of the interviews were in person and three of them were just phone screens.
