Nigeria romance scams!!!!! Happening on Plenty of Fish
Posted: 10/28/2009 6:14:22 AM
I was contacted by a man claiming to be JONES MARTIN of STANHOPE NJ 07874.

He want to chat so he gave me his email address which was JONESMARTIN@rocketmail.com. Said he was a widow with 2 daughters ages 18, & 16 and that they went to school in the UK. Even sent me pictures of these kids and himself (studio photos) looked like the all American Family to me.

So we chatted for about a week when he finally tried the scam. Said his kids were going to Africa with their school the University of the UK and that he wanted to send them cash but was out of it. He was embarrassed to ask me, but could I possibly cash a CASHIERS CHECK in the amount of $2700.00. I questioned him - Why don't you go to the front desk they will cash it. He told me know. I said take out a cash advance from your credit card, he said he could do that either. I said I would only cash it at his Bank. He said no. Then because of the information he supplied on POF, I ask him his street addressed. (I used to live in that city know it by heart) he hesitated, I told him if he couldn't provide me with a street name then I would not cash the check for him. It took him 7 minutes. I told him I had to get coffee, went on Mapquest and LOW and BEHOLD no such street address in my old city.

Got back on IM and told him he was a Nigerian Scammer and also told him that I had just copied our entire conversation and forwarded it the FBI and CIA he vanished.

He is no longer on this site either.

Hope this helps anyone out there. The pictures are phoney, and when they want to chat with you elsewhere be reluctant. His email was jonesmartin@rocketmail.com

Ever date someone with BPD? (Borderline Personality Disorder)

Dear Sans,

I wanted to thank you for your post. I agree. Lableing anyone with any one of these mental illnesses even with a degree is highly unprofessional.

You (not you Sans, You ppl in this Forum) don't have the right to Judge others, with or without a degree because you have not had the pleasure or opportunity to converse with the individual.

You only get to hear one side of the story. That is the side of the person who is venting. Who is to say someone is Bi Polar, or has a Personality Disorder even if they have dated them. Where is the empathy? Have you walked in their (the person who is unfairly being diagnoised) lived their life? Know what horror they have witnessed. Do you know the Trauma that they lived through? Of course not.

People stop and think for a minute. Even if you have been with someone for a very long time, there are thing that are bury so far in that persons pysch that the person you are unfairly diagnosing doesn't even know.

Remember no one has the right to Judge others. Take your own Inventory instead, it's much healthier and perhaps you will learn more about yourself, rather that laying blame and lableing your significant other, friend, family member etc.

men..would you date a woman with little or no sex drive?
Posted: 6/4/2008 8:53:32 AM
YOU MEN SEEM TO THINK A LOW SEX DRIVE IS NOT F--KING 7 DAYS A WEEK. LET ME EXPLAIN THAT SEX STARTS IN THE HEAD NOT THE GROIN. IT IS CALLED FOREPLAY. IT STARTS LONG BEFORE GETTING BETWEEN THE SHEETS. AND ANOTHER THINGS, WOMEN DO NOT I REPEAT DO NOT HAVE TO CLIMAX TO HAVE A HIGH SEX DRIVE. IT'S THE CHERRY ON THE ICE CREAM FOR THEM. THE EMOITIONAL BOND THAT COMES FROM THE TWO SOULS UNITIED AS ONE IS WHAT WE ARE REALLY LOOKING FOR. REMEMBER WOMAN WILL GIVE SEX TO HEAR "I LOVE YOU" AND MEN WILL SAY "I LOVE YOU" TO GET SEX. MEN ARE FROM MARS AND WOMAN ARE FROM VENUS.

SEX IS GREAT SEX WITH LOVE AND FOREPLAY AND CUDDLING AFTERWARDS IS THE ULTIMATE.

THANK YOU FOR READING THIS. IT IS NOT A PUT DOWN TO ANY MAN JUST ANOTHER WAY TO THINK ABOUT THE DIFFERENCES IN SEX DRIVES BETWEEN THE SEXES.

Thanks for all the advise. I copied and printed your advise then started from all over again. I know I need better pictures, that will be taken care of very soon. Perhaps, you could re-review my changes and tell me what you think.

I will say I am getting alot more messages, men are responding with how cute and imaginative my profile is and my picture is being rated with higher numbers all due to your advise.

please tell me if i need to punch up anything else.
