Hi I know how you feel
I met my Romanian lady in the UK
Spoilt her
Gave her money
Bought her nice clothes
I spent £7000 on her
This included three days in Bucharest in September
She persuaded me to sell two cars
Again she was aftervmoney to pay off debts allegedly
I paid for her and her brother to fly back to England
I paid for her to stay in a hotel
When I then told her I couldn't give her the money for something she threatened to tell my wife of our affair
I've not heard from her since
I was heartbroken
Four weeks later I am slowly getting over her
Stay positive
Regards

I am currently in Romania getting set to head back to the usa. I got scammed by someone who I thought loved me. I feel pretty badly right now. I am very heart broken and have been feeling unwell. I feel stupid and ugly and horrible. I got used very badly and threw away some money. It is a long story and a little different from the typical scammers stories I have read on the internet. But this woman was really vile, her whole family lied to me. I have been feeling unwell as a result of how sick this whole event has been for me. She was very legitimate and I believed that she was really interested in me. Her picture was real and she seemed like a nice girl. But she was full of lies. I met her on the dating partners site for Romania. However she wanted to switch to Yahoo messenger soon after. She claimed that it was easier to talk that way.
She lied to me and manipulated me. I traveled to Bucharest. I really liked her a lot. And I thought everything was fine. But over the past few weeks she became more and more distant. I was at her house. I woke up Sunday and her mom was like you are leaving here now. I was engaged to this girl. Anyhow, to make a long
story short, her parents made some demands on me. And asked for money, this was over the course of a few weeks. I'd been helping them out with stuff all along with small things. It seemed normal. But the demands became more detailed, like, "you give me €6000 for a new roof for this house. You give us $800 for her university tuition right now! At one point I was asked to pay their entire family dept. Stuff like that. I was like, I can help you all. I agreed to help over time.  I loved her and believed in the girl and her family. I offered her a chance to one day live in the usa if she wanted to. For her, her family. I really believed in this girl and I loved her. I really cared about her.  I was tricked to this hotel. After I paid the bill, my girl gave me my ring back and just walked away. Didn't say anything. She just left. I realized that I was being ditched.
Even though prior to ending up there she told me that everything was fine. She was such a good actress. She lied so much.
It broke my heart a lot. I had been talking with her for almost year before I came over. All of the time I kept asking her if everything was okay whenever she seemed distant and she just lied to me, to my face. She claimed that everything was fine. Saying things that weren't true. It was all lies. Her and her ma just wanted money out of me. It was all just lies, I doubt if she even loved me. She was so cold at times and weird.
I am sitting here near the airport in this hotel room right now just trying to keep myself level headed. I feel really, really bad. I keep asking myself, did I do anything wrong. But it isnt right to make demands for money on people like that. If she really loved me why did she treat me like this? Why would she hurt me in this way. Why would she be this way with me.
In my career I had plans of doing all kinds of stuff in Bucharest. I tried to contact the people at a few media spaces but they never replied. Every time I tried to set up a time to go down to the spaces in person my girl kept talking me out of it. She totally didn't care about my career stuff. Everything was always about her. So ego driven. She put down my stuff and her mom totally ripped on me. I showed her reviews out of the known periodicals, very important hard earned stuff I have done and she like just flipped it off like it was nothing. Nothing was ever good enough. She dismissed everything I showed her and she kept the attitude like I was a nothing or something. Â This was a big red flag but I ignored it and tried to tell myself that maybe she was tired or something. But the fact is that she didn't care about me or my feelings. She just echoed whatever her mom wanted.
To add more, yesterday, she (my girl and her mom) came back to the hotel. Â Her mother ran past hotel officials here and tried to come into my room. The hotel people had to restrain her. She had stuff of mine (a new ipod I gave my girl, a t-shirt ..etc) , When I asked for it back. She would not give it to me. Yet she brought it back to the hotel?!? She just stood there with the bag yelling. I am very upset to say the least. The hotel official had to block the door to keep her from coming in and she made a huge scene. I told my girl to just leave me alone. I sent an email to her prior threatening to report them. This is why I think she returned with my stuff. All of the time at her place my girl wa worried about who I was talking to on the phone or emailing. She would ask me who are you talking to. She also wanted to see the emails. In her pictures and in person, her eyes were so dark. Something always bothered me about her eyes. They weren't honest. She could never look at me directly.
I didn't do anything to cause this. Other than not giving her or her mom $$$£££ on the spot. I feel bad and stupid for falling for this. I feel so very alone. I feel very hopeless right now. All of the time wasted on this. And my emotions, she lied to me so much.
I thought about contacting the usa Embassy here but I don’t know. I am leaving Bucharest very soon.
I know that men are not supposed to cry but it is just so great, all of this hurt right now. It really really hurts so much, I just wish it would stop.
