I had fallen for a guy on holiday in Turkey he said he needed a deposit for an apartment stupidly I helped him. Then he messaged me it was expensive he needed more. He said it was for ours when I came back there.I found out he got the sack for pestering a 17 year old girl. Yet proclaiming he loved me. Once he said he needed 2,000 pounds I said I couldnt he got angry. I didnt want to piss him off. The apartment I went to never stayed which I thought odd wasnt his it was his mates. He kept asking for hundreds of pounds. I found out when I was over there he had flirted with other girls one been 13. I was livid. When I confronted him he got upset said Id broken his heart I actually felt bad. He was up to no good behind my back I just didnt listen. This year he said he had no job no money and needed 700 pounds When I said I couldnt he got very upset and said he coukdnt see me anymore and he was sad his life was shit.I found out it was a big lie.Ive seen him in facebook and in videos laughing, dancing looking far from upset. Hes blocked me totally Everytime he rang me or messaged me I dreaded it atleast now he wont pester me fir more money. Let some other idiot buy him stuff. I would never fall for a barman again Ive heard some right stories they think were rich and will sell themselves for money they just laugh about it with their mates. I just never saw it coming Im heart broken and feel so angry with myself. Hes living it up now flirting and eyeing up his next victim
