Good to hear from you!

I'm so sorry to hear about your neighbors. I know only too well what that's like, unfortunately, but I've wound up in a pretty good place with very nice neighbors. Which is good, considering I purchased it, lol.

I thought I had heard the last from Mr. Evil in an email on March 1st of this year, sarcastically thanking me, telling me he hoped I enjoyed my life, and that our (his?) Lord would punish me. No such luck. Towards the end of last month, I received an "unknown caller" call from South Korea, which only rang once before whoever it was (one guess) hung up. I had deleted all of the numbers I had for him from my contacts, and deleted WhatsApp entirely from my phone, thinking he would be too cheap to make an actual international phone call. I don't know what the purpose of calling me and hanging up was - did he think I would call him back?! I added this new number to my contacts, under "Asshole." Undoubtedly he was having a desperate moment - one out of probably thousands. I guess he is bouncing back and forth between Morocco and South Korea - good luck ever making it to the U.S., though. It makes me wonder how many others he has hooked and played, but not curious enough to look at any of his social media accounts (which are all blocked - at least, the ones I know about).

This site was live saver for me as well. I wish I had paid more attention to it before getting involved with him to the extent that I did, but at least I received validation that I did the right thing by cutting him off. Though I am sad that it took me so long to figure him out, because of everything that happened he will most likely never be able to legally enter my country. This is a bonus not only for me, but all of the other people whose lives he would have damaged had he made it here. I guess I took one for the team, lol, which is fine with me - I survived, and came out much better for it in the end. I would thank him, except I don't think that was his intention.
