I posted my profile on this site to try to meet someone who is compatible with me in my region, with whom, perhaps, I can start communicating and see where it leads. The problem is that there is a hacker who pretends to be someone he is not, using photos and profiles, who is trying to make friends with you, but something in the dialogue makes you understand that this is not quite right. So far I've been able to portray him for the first week or so, but it's become frustrating. His answers are all fiction. Somehow he lets me know that it's him or my friend. One thing I discovered is that they are not from the United States. In one of the conversations, they talked about a tearful story about difficult times, and I immediately realized that the next one would be a money issue, but I stopped him dead in his tracks before he had time to board this ship. I sent an email howaboutwe.com because I am very disappointed with the paid membership, but still have not received a response. Guys, could you share with me your opinion and experience with online dating? Please give me suggestions on how to proceed. I'm 49, but I'm ready for a relationship now that all the kids have grown up and are living on their own. I'm divorced twice, so I don't have the patience to do nonsense and play games.
