I was in a relationship, it was only an online relationship but I did feel love for him. I trusted him beyond anyone i ever trusted. Yesterday i found out that he had another identity and a love affair with another woman. Now it all makes sense. All the times he came to see me late and then fell asleep. I thought he was just tired. I found out he travleled to see her and stayed with her. He kept telling me he would travel to see me but needed to save money.. Yeah with all the travelling he already did it was a wonder he had any money. Since i talked to his other girlfriend (yes she contacted me showed me pictures of her and him and knew things about him that i thought only i knew) I Have not seen him, he wont answer my emails or any other contact i have made. I'm wondering if he is too scared to talk to me. Should I just move on and not worry about him or should i wait. I have not seen him in four days. (not like him at all) Let me know your opinion and what you would do in the same situation. I will have a hard time trusting anyone now. No more online relationships for me.

i can relate to the situation i been cheated by my ex-boyfriend too. even if he said that he still love me i choose to stay away with him and be free. now i'm happily married with my best friend. don't wait for him or try to contact him you don't deserve a guy like him. it's time to move on focus on yourself and make yourself busy so that you can forget about him easily.

hello my dear friend!! So sorry to hear this. I am sure your heartbroken to say the least. Move on sweetie, he isn't worth your time or tears!! Online or off, some people lie. Don't put his dishonesty on anyone else though. Be weary, of course but not all guys are like him. Just be more careful and trust your gut when you get the feeling something isn't right, it probably isn't. So dry those tears!! he doesn't deserve them, and you deserve SOOO much better than he gave you!! There are many other guys out there and you will find someone in time who will be honest and truly love.

So you have learned. Don't give up hope though hun. Next time you will be wiser and whether tomorrow or in a year, you will be able to trust again. It will just take a special person to get that trust hugz

I think you should forget him and move on. He undoubtly is not telling you the truth, and if he is also involved with someone else, you don't need that. It may not be a serious relationship, but if you just want to be friends, and not worry about if he is lying or not, then maybe that is okay. I went through deceitful men too, when I was meeting guys online. There really is no reason for them to lie. Wishing you luck.

Dear mssnow...first of all, we need to have aclear distinction between love and infatuation. What you've gone through is something, a lot of people have gone through before and be glad it happened to you, because once you come through it, you are gonna be a really strong person. Now again, Love is not binding and we must be able to let go and let be. This is easier said than done. But then again dear mssnow...you sure are a wonderful person and you will definitely get lots of friends and partners as you go your way. There is plenty of fish out there in the sea. It will be better if you can forget and forgive and go along. At any cost give up the relationship. And it is extremely important to be involved in activities that will keep you happy. How you feel is important as your feeling is going to pull to you, people and circumstances in concordance with your feeling. Brighten up. 'Ther always is plenty and BETTER fish out there in the sea'.

Dear mssnow...what makes you think that he's gonna let you yell at him...that sort of thing is done by people who cares for us...like say our parents...not someone who doesn't care a dam'n about...as he has already proved it...the more you think about him negatively or positively the more power you give him to control your life. That's the truth of the moment. Every waking hours of yours is being controlled by the mere thought of a person. Isn't that telling something about you?...your mental trait?...yes it does...now let's start working on that. Not him. Let's start working on you. Let's focus on becoming a stronger personality. Leave him out of all this. Its time to leave the company of scavenging crows and join the eagles where you truly belong. Develop you traits nad soon you will find people matching the calibre you have grown to be. It takes time but work on it constantly. How can I say this? I've been through it. So trust me. Be patient and this will pass away for a better life...unless of course you are not guilty of something you've done to spoil the relationship. If that has happened, own it. Take responsibility, and go ahead.

You need to delete him and move on. What a looser. Once a cheater always a cheater and chances are you and this other girl are not the only ones. He does not deserve an explanation from you and you should not want an explanation from him. How is he gonna explain that he has been cheating on you?

Not only does mssnow not need an explanation from this jerk but she could not trst him to be honest anyway. I agree that it is best to delete all records of him because he is only a tosser who will soon cheat on the next woman he finds. There is no "satisfactory" explanation as to why one person cheats on another although the cheater will often try to justify their actions. I recall that my ex-wife blamed me for her having an affair. Why? Because I used to be away from home driving trucks a few nights a week and not home with her. We had discussed it before I accepted the job and agreed that I would do it for 1-2 years only to pay some more money off our house and build a shed. She was the one who pointed out that the money I would earn from interstate driving was twice what I was getting paid in the local job. Othher people have said that when their wife/girlfriend or husband/boyfriend has been caught out cheating, the cheater alwas blames the innocent party. lol

I´m sorry to hear that, but i´m not a 100% agree, you don´t have to wait for him and you don´t have to keep looking for him, he is not worth it. first of all how can a person fell in love by internet. I mean, when you really fell in love is when you can feel that person, is when you can hear every second of your time that he loves you, is when you can really know what that person is really doing, is when you guys go out and have fun. Let me give you an advise, I undesrtand that you fall in love and i also understand that he was a completely liar and a cheater, but just try to move on, forget about him, and if you want to make him feel bad if he looks for you try to ignore him, when you do that he is gonna realize if he really feels something for you or he is gonna realize what he has lost. Don´t worry i bet you´re strong, just wait and you´ll see that the right guy that you deseve will knock on your front door sooner or later. Take Care. Cesar Rendon.

Yes. It hurts to get a twisted heart. Better to keep room for such feelings. You should ask him and give him scope to answer. But don't make one occurance an example for life. Take care.

I have always heard that online or long distance relationship doesn't work yet I met hubby online and up to now we are still together. I'm sorry you have bad experience online. I've had bad experiences too, online and offline, casual friends or not but I didn't give up. I know I deserve happiness. I know I haven't done anything wrong. so I kept on moving and that was when I met hubby. Simply put, it's not your fault, it's his, he is the cheater. If I were you I would move on, block all communications with him. Don't give up on love, because love does not cheat. In fact, if you give up now, he wins. I'm sure you don't want that.

that is the problem with on-line relationships. You really have to be so careful as it is way too easy to pretend to be someone else. You have to guard your heart against getting too caught up in it before you know for sure that it is the real deal. I had a friend that fell for this so often that I just wanted to take her computer away from her. It was actually a bit scary a couple of times. Thankfully she finally learned.

UMM i would definitely move on. i mean he's just playing games with you. if you're going to do online dating then its best to meet them before you develop deeper feelings. if he's willing to spend time with the other girl than you then maybe he has more feelings for her. if he can't even be faithful to you through a computer then how can you expect him to be faithful in real life??

I am not sure what explantion you want if he was cheating on you, any explaination would probably be more lies. I am not clear if you ever met this man as you are not clear on that point. I would find it difficult to fall in love with someone online and call it a relationship. Please do not become a bitter older woman like post number 14. Men are not all the same anymore than women are all the same. However you might have to be a bit more choosy who you hook up with.

Oh Princess! Come here for a big Wolfie hug! What a brute of a man, what a coward, what a (well I am too much of a gentlewolf to add any expletives!) He is the big loser, he has lost you, what a fool! You don't deserve him, sorry for the platitudes but those people make me angry, toying with people's hearts and affections like they were toys, well the only place he belongs to is in a dark alley with some very mean and hungry wolves! Many people tell me that karma will deal with the likes of people who hurt us, and I hope you believe in that too! The fact that he can't face you makes him weak and puny and a gutless coward of a sorry excuse for a man, let alone human. Move on Princess, join the NON-TRUST brigade cos I am in it, but then you know me I have said NO MORE relationships Full stop! I am far happier being single as you know, I couldn't trust again, I find it difficult to trust anyone (offline) so a relationship makes it impossible, I am too selfish, have my own problems to deal with and don't need anyone complicating my life! xxxxxxx

Once a cheater, always a cheater is what my mother would say. I was cheated on by my ex-wife so I know what it is like and I can tell you that once the trust has gone, it is never the same. You know that this man has already abused your trust and lied to you about his situation so why would you believe anything he said now to justify his deceitful actions? For whatever reason this other woman contacted you, be thankful that she did. At least you know what has been going on behind your back and so the other woman did you a favour. Also I think that you are probably lucky that he did not have the money to come and visit you as from experience I know you would be feeling much worse than you are right now. Does it matter whether he is scared to talk to you or not? He is not a moral man at all and if he has any conscience he should be feeling ashamed of what he has done to you and the other woman. If he was a man at all, he would face you and admit that he has done the wrong thing. Delete all emails, photos etc of this man that you have on your computer. Scrub his name and email details etc from your adress book. Turn off your webcam if he does come online and then add his name and email details to your banned list. Good luck and remember that you are too good for a louse like this.

I have been hurt by so many people in my life. They were both men and women. I do not have any real friends in my real life right now because of things I have gone through in the past and the present. I cannot trust any of them and none of them have shown me otherwise.

Hi Friends Yeah its hurting,when relations are broken by lies.meeting some one in the online and falling in love for that person is not at all sensible.Because many people pretend,what they are not.and it is tough have confidence in them too.We find people,who are true . And waiting for a cheater is not a good thing to do.No need to have any contacts with that person,because llife is really very beautiful,and every one has their soulmates.When the time comes ,god shows them to us. Bye!!!!!!!!!
