I love you from now until death do us part. Right now, you're living so far away from me that it is killing me, but I know in my heart that we are doing the right thing. And, you are trying to get things straight so we can live there forever and spend a lifetime together. I don't want to lose you for anyone else or anything that anyone has to say about you. I want you to know that I love you from the deepest part of my heart. My love for you is unconditional. The love for you is so strong and the most powerful feeling that I have had in a long time, and I am just at a lost for words when it comes to you. I just wish that their was another way that we could be together without living so far apart right at the time being. I want you to know that I love you and always will, and there is nothing that will ever change how I feel about you. I love you.

You are on here you can't say hi.I hope I don't scare you with my phone activation.I hope to read from you soon.


I have also been asked for my cell number, which I freely gave, because we kept just missing each other online, The first day he sent me poetry, really mushey, apoligetic for the miles between us. He also told me that he was totally in love with me. Said that his son was living with a sister-in-law. He asked me to delete my account because he didn't want to lose me to another person on the site. He never called me at 5pm.

I didn't fall for the scam, because my ex husband fell for one and sent the "girl" $400.00 and he started to fall for a Russian who actually gave him HER phone number!! I thought that was odd in itself.

Thank you for trying to keep our Troops Safe!!!!

Let me get this straight. He's in the military, he has a cellphone, but he needs you to pay $200 to activate it before he can use it?

Hogwash.

The reason he won't call you on the phone is that he grew up in hick town Nigeria, not Texas, and his accent would give him away.
