To "L"

Hi "L",

I have talked to his sisters, brothers, mother and nephews and nieces on the telephone and on computer when he had one on the phone. His mother and I waved to each other on the computer when she saw me on the cam. Every time I call his house, I usually talk with his sister, who is so so awesome, I talk to his brothers and he has this amazing nephew named Ahmed, we tease and call him my little boyfriend. So yes, I've talked to them on the phone for the past 2 years, we laugh on the phone, his family and myself. We speak spanish a a little english. I am american.

I am older than him by 20 years, I am told I don't look my age. For others to decide. He knows I do not want to have more children, he says my family will be his family. He had a health issue where he may be unable to have children. I've questioned him a million times about children, it does bother me cause I would never ever be so selfish to take this man from having children. What a gift.

You know, I won't lie, I have doubts, why, cause I've not yet met him face to face. I've seen him on cam and talk to him on the phone almost daily. Sometimes more than once a day. He calls me and I call him all the time.

But I'm pissed again..cause a little while ago he called me at work and brought up I'm in need of money, please help me, anything will help..could you even just wire me $25.00. I'm like arrrrrrrrrrrggggh....and again confused and pissed off........

I think you are wrong, I believe you can have true honest feelings from talking online, etc. for two years. Of course it is real when you're face to face, but don't tell me that when my heart hurts over something with him that I'm delusional, that is a crock. I feel, I'm very down to earth and real....and I have enough sense to question my heart and mind at war.

Thank you,

Susan
