Broken Heart

At least he didn't lead you on to marrying him. I think he wants you for money and the gifts. Its seems that maybe he did care just a little to not lead you on to believing you two can be together. But I think he will continue to use you for money and gifts, if you allow it. I have learned from this site not to give money, and then you will see exactly how much they care. A man 17 years your junior! I was skeptical with my friend being 6 years my junior. Even though we looked the same age.

I just returned from Jordan, and I held on to the advice I received from this site. He is still trying me, but I can tell it is fading slowly. I would let it go if I were you. Don't let him use you for your money. A broken heart can mend. Even though I didn't give up any money, I still feel like a fool to even think this man wanted me.

The trip was nice and he was very kind and wanted to marry me. I told him I would think about it and returned in August. I am not going back there to marry, visit or anything. I knew I wasn't before I left. Everything became clear to me while we were together. All of us can see the signs, and pretend to be blind, because we are so in love. He just want to come to America. In your case, he is letting you know straight up what he is going to do with you. Its so plain and clear in your comment.
