Looking online for love proves to be a dangerous path. The hope for love and for a successful partnership of two people drove me to seek it. The constant questioning coming from Is this real? Or am I bringing myself into a dangerous game? goes through my head.

I survived and found love not once but twice and you can too!

I consider myself a normal healthy older woman. Not overly good looking, overweight but active, positive and outgoing.
While many of my friends got married and had kids out of high school I didn't - I had no desire to and lived a normal life that I loved until I hit my 40s and then became lonely.
My first trip into the online world was more than 10 years ago. I had to deal with scammers (now called Catfishers) and managed to find a man who was real and who I fell in love with. Nine years later we split up, and a year after that I started my second trip into the online world.
What helped me survive the experience was my education - I have a BA in Psychology and Sociology. I lived as a single woman for enough years that I wasn't dependent upon being with someone else. I never lost my belief that I would find someone and I did!
