Romance Gone Wrong?

Have you ever had your heart ripped out from you?   You meet someone wonderful and he is just as you always hope he would be, but you have this lingering feeling that is also too good to be true? I have.
 It was not that he ripped my heart like in  a way of him cheating on me. It was the realization that he is not what he seems to be.
I met him a dating website and I have checked him out at Spokeo.com according to his email address. He was legit as far as I was concerned so we  emailed each other for several days  and telling each other how much we mean to each other. So what went wrong?
I did a lot more researching then I liked. I went to places like http://www.romance.scam.com and other websites like that. There I saw what I did not want to see.  I even searched him out on Facebook and thought oh no! He is from Ghana (Although I was wrong about that).
I did not want to believe he was a scam artist, but what can I do?  He writes like one: all his "I"s were "i"s, his grammar wasn't 100% correct and  he did misspell some words but it wasn't atrocious. If it wasn't for all that,  I would say I am  happy camper. However, I could not. I wanted to believe that maybe all Italians  write that, but being a 40 something years old man and supposedly educated in the U.S, (with a 4 years college education) how in the world is he  still writing like that? It made no sense to me. Another thing is he used someone elses username at the dating site.

My heart is  ripped because I have loved him and now I had to let him go because of those things. I find myself asking if I will ever meet someone  is truly an Italian. This person is Italian according to spokeo.com. To me it felt like I had let go of the real deal  even though, I was not 100% happy with him.
Thanks,  Romance scam.com.

Living with Alzheimer

No, I don't have Alzheimer, my mother does.  Although for a long time I didn't know this. I believe the disease was there when my father was alive but the disease had lain dormant. Why? I don't know, but the disease triggered in her brain soon after his death. Just recently, my sister told me it began shortly after she stopped going to the senior nutrition center All my life, I had this picture of healthy parents. I thought God would make sure none of my parents would  ever have Cancer or Alzheimer. I thought it would never happen to us! I'm sure many people thought that, but our (My sister and my  situation sis different. If you disagree feel free to comment below) My sister and I have never had a chance to leave home. I think that  it is because I had a mindset that kept me hostage. My sister had her reasons. My father made her an underpaid housekeeper and I went off to  college,  and going to find work where ever I can only to end up back home. After I graduated

January 13, 2012.  Two days after I have found out from my friend and also author Michelle that my book was finally published.  I have prayed it would not take 6-8 months. I asked for God's favor and I got it or so I thought.  It  is my first time to  have a book published and therefore I am new at all that is expected. When I told Michelle  about my prayer being answered, she bursted my bubble: "Yes, it took me  six weeks too to get my first book published." Oh well My life has changed since she told me and even posted on my wall that my book is for sale now. Wow! I am finally an author! Do I feel any different? Some. Now I have questions. How do I begin to let people know. I am rather shy at talking to people on phones and I also do not know when I should do it (have a book signing event) If it is true that I might have to"supply" the books, I need to get  them at a discount. I also need to call Barnes and Noble and see if they will let me do it.  When I ca

Hanford's Hidden Treasure

Image
I don't see myself as a nobody. I know who I am in the eyes of God. I am somebody special, I am an author. You didn't know that? Well, no wonder! Because businesses won't let you know about me!  I tried to let the people of Hanford know they have an author in town. I had my first book signing in a library a couple years ago. Perhaps you didn't  read the paper that week. You know what? That is okay. I got what I wanted even though after the local paper featured me in the paper, no one asked me about it. Let's go back many years ago when I was in high school. Was I popular? No. Was I accepted? Maybe. Maybe not. I got teased a lot. I didn't have many friends. Thanks God, my self esteem wasn't based on what my peers thought about me. I knew I didn't fit in according to their standards. I am an adult now. I thought maybe things have changed. Many of the people who weren't my friends in High School are now. It isn't my peers that is making me feel
