Were you ever a victim of a crime?

I had my grandmother's wedding ring stolen with workers in my home. I would not be able to prove it but after they left it was gone. I should have put it out of sight but it was in a little case. It was left to me to keep and give to my daughter.
 

Life deals you lemons some times. I still hope to find a love to share coffee with even after my heart has been trampled. should I keep beleiving? probably not but without hope of one last kiss before I die then what is there?
 
I want to be in love more than I want to hate bad people
 

I almost thought I should start a new thread because this crime is so devious that most people won't see it until they themselves experience it. Two years ago a romance scammer drew my wife into a relationship online with a story about being military intelligence and no way to phone or skype. She bought it hook line and sinker and emptied all my credit cards with cash advances to pay for some port fines on his gold shipment coming soon so they could live happily ever after. I forgave her and refinanced the car to pay off the debt.

Not two weeks passed and the cards were maxed again for the same old story. Now she swears she is meeting him in a month and he will pay back every dime. We all know that's a lie but what hurts most is that she doesn't care about our 25 year marriage and is chasing rainbows. I'm not good enough after all this time. So yes I was raped and violated in the worst way by some scammer who took me for thousands and my wife. I have no words how that feels but I have never felt so alone in all my life.
That’s such a heartbreaking experience, Friar. I’m really sorry you went through that. Thank you for sharing —it’s a tough reminder of how real and damaging these scams can be. Wishing you strength moving forward. 🙏
