I fell In love with a Kurdish man, swept me off my feet! His family supposedly accepted me into their family (I have two children) I'm only a couple years older than him. We was together a year and spent every month back together (Before Covid).. we went on holiday to Cyprus and Istanbul (he works in Icmeler) I was giving up everything to move there to spend the rest of my life with him, 3 days before I was due to go back to live with him I found out via social media he was actually staying with an older woman for 2 weeks ... I spoke to her and she said they have been together for 3 years - he denied and his family denied everything about her .. she is just some old customer from the bar!! Begged me to go! Obs her story was different! I didn't get that flight!!! My world had crashed ... they are fantastic actors and professional liars!! Well until I found out his sick game!!! She has since gone back to see him and still continuing to give him money! She clearly thinks she has to buy love!!
We spent so much time together and constantly on phone and video call I really don't know how he did it!!!
Time is a healer, it's not easy but keep your self respect, your dignity and your pride xx
