i can tbelieve ppl are still talking about this. its so over i moved on learned a few of lifes curve balls and have been doing great since. i havent met anyone else from here but i do plan on joining some of you at a pof get together very soon. i think this will be a bit safer and more mature avenue to venture thanks and hmmm lets howmany other ppl want to comment on this as it was over a month ago. lifes to short to babble nit pick so take care and iwill be changing my profile. thanks all who supported me here and those who taught me something happy hunting


You can't blame anyone for the flack you're getting. You're on a website and you started the thread, so people are going to state opinions. If you were done, you probably wouldn't come back to see what people are typing.

PS By keeping your profile that way, you're showing that you still want that kind of attention.

Things on forums don't usually end simply because an OP states they are done.

One reason is that someone may have a similar situation and rather than start another thread which stands the chance of getting deleted by members due to 'redundant', they do a search, find one in similarity and continue the thought process.

If you didn't want people to comment on your foolish behaviour then you should of not posted it in the forums. You only started this thread a few days ago so it was already over a month ago that this situation happened when you started this thread.

You know if you were a man who was "hooking up" with girls who last year were in high school you would really be getting flaming right now , not the mild heating that you are getting.18 years old or not he is still bigger and stronger then you are ,and for all you know could of been having fantasies about rape or murder .You're lucky you're still around to learn from this curve ball life shot at you.

Wow, in checking OP's profile, she is on 146 people's list of favorites.
What does that say about 146 people. Life in the fast lane....can come to a screeching halt..
be careful...not the best way to be raising a child.

I agree with geeky gidget . The thread does not end just because the op no longer wishes to speak about it. I don't care how long ago you started it. Think next time before starting a new thread .

I saw another woman on here saying she met someone on POF who stole her CD!! I guess $500 is WAY worse than that. And when she tried to email the guy about it, he blocked her.

i can tbelieve ppl are still talking about this

That's ok, we can't believe you're still here reading about people still talking about it. You started the thread on 10/28 to complain about the consequences of your own lousy judgment. Then, on 11/30, you came back to post in part:

but thnx for all the bs you have said and ill never visit this site again. this is truly the only thing i learnt. **** pof and **** you...

Oops, you came back on 12/2 - guess you didn't REALLY mean you'd "never visit this site again, huh? Then you posted:

reading into my ad of some kid um well he is a concenting adult as welll we had talked for over a yr online

So, umm, he's 18 now, but you've been talking for over a year online - so when you started talking with him online he was at most 17 and possible only 16, but you're upset at references to "kid"??

On 12/10, you then showed up yet again, to post in part:

i havent met anyone else from here but i do plan on joining some of you at a pof get together very soon

So, umm, I guess you REALLY REALLY didn't mean you would "never visit this site again", huh?

The 18 year old was legal, and obviously, was not the type of whom advantage could be taken.

Inviting a stranger into her house--just plain stupid.

But I find it hard to believe she had $500 just laying around.

Once again I have to say GROW UP people. You where robbed I hoped you reported it to police. As far as your reason for being on POF what does it matter??? Judge not least ye be judged by the sam measure. But you should be safe in your dealings with anyone you meet on the net.
I think you need to be real carful when meeting people on the net. Take steps to protect yourself. Dont bring them to your home. NO MATTER how safe he appears. Let someone know where you are and who you are with. Even if you just write it down on a note pad on your desk.
Have fun and be safe out there

It`s my understanding that the OP talked to this young man for a year over the internet.If that is correct it means he was 17 years old when she started communication with him..This reeks of "grooming" to me,how sad is that?For those of you that can`t grasp the significance of what went on here initially......well it sure sounds like she knew exactally when to make her move......waited until he was 18,then HE rips her off......sorry,but I have no compassion for her.Call it poetic justice........,works for me........

Hi! I am not here to judge you, however you posted a thread and wanted honesty. First off, never trust anyone but yourself. Second, regardless of what you are looking for respect yourself, your feelings and body. If you do not carry yourself with honor and respect you are at risk of being robbed again but it might not be of money. Good luck!!

and just how do you figure that a person who is of the age of majority cannot be taken advantage of?


Oh, please. The young man was out for what he could get--and he got it. She was out for what she could get, too, but what she got was not what she wanted or expected.

Our culture says an 18 year old is an adult. They are tried as adults for crimes. A savvy 18 year old is less liable to be "played" than a naive 36 year old.

The OP was unwise. I wonder if she has learned anything.

The fact of the post is, she let a stranger into her home. Someone she obviously didn't know well enough and to even trust while she was there. It could of been a man of any age that did that. Second part, you get stalked when someone knows where you live, where you work etc. So......... this tells me you give out way too much personal info too soon. Next time, don't divulge private/personal information and don't let them come to your house.

The real point isn't whether the OP is odd, not normal or a slut that deserved what she got, the point is a she allowed a complete stranger into her home. The age of either doesn't matter. With so many women disappearing due to men they know I can't imagine any women these days putting more trust in a stranger.

when a girl tells you she works for a major retailer, dont ask her which store. its creepy. its even more creepy if you figure it out and then come into the store hopin to "get a peek".


Yep, happened to me in my more naive days. Guy came in to "check me out" and it is creepy.

Hmmm....well I'll just come right out and say that yeah, you know what OP ? I'm gonna judge you.
You chucked common sense out the window. You wanted some kid (and just because he can vote doesn't suddenly mean he's not a kid) to come over and get it on with you. Okay, fine, that's not really my business (although I've always wondered what anybody over the age of 22 or 23 would have in common with somebody still in high school) but you should have at least considered the possibility that an 18 year old kid might act like an 18 year old kid. You kept $500 bucks in your purse and left it lying around. You talked for a year you claim (and I won't bother pointing out that 18 - 1 = 17...ooops...just did) and in all that time this kid never mentioned anything about his lifestyle ? Never heard him mention anything about the less than responsible things he might have been up to ? If not, then I have to assume that you didn't really do a heck of a lot of talking. Hell, did you even know his real name ? Where he lived ? Anything ?

To top it all off, you have the arrogance to blame your monumentally poor judgment and lack of common sense on all men on POF. Wow. Like I said, yeah, I'm judging you and you're an idiot who has an awful lot of growing up to do. Go ahead and shoot back with whatever you want to ... it doesn't change the fact that this one is almost entirely your own fault for acting so downright moronically. Seriously, next time just hire a gigolo or something.

If you're into younger men, that's your call. Next time rent a hotel room and leave your wad of cash at home! quoted by offstride..

Even though I don't agree with you about what you do...I cannot judge you..

But, I would not have 500 dollars sitting around in the house, if you invited someone over for an intimate encounter.....should have left it in the bank..
Unless the 500 dollars was there for a particular reason..

Just take it as a lesson ....
