Info:: I answered his personal on the Yahoo website. He sounded
perfect: 37 years old, project manager for a major firm, well educated
and a body builder as well. We met and had dinner one night and fell
for each other quite quickly. He pursued me via the phone and e mail
every day. Our lives became more and more involved as the months
went on.
I began to notice strange qualities about him. He was terribly
cheap and always aware of "keeping the score even". If he paid for
dinner one night, I was expected to pay the next. If he changed the
oil in my car as a favor, I was expected to pay for the oil!! He
said that was only fair. He even wanted me to pay for his gas since
he visited my home more than I visited his.
When he bought me a "Mr. Coffee" for Valentines Day, I had enough.
I tried to break up with him, but he wouldn't have it. He refused
to return my house key and kept calling saying he loved me and wanted to
marry me. He even waited in my backyard one night for four hours in freezing
weather to see if I came home with anyone else that evening.
I told him I could never marry him and that it was over between us.
He asked if we could be friends and I said "yes". He asked if I would
have dinner with him the next night and I agreed. We had a pleasant
time and returned to my home. That's when my nightmare began.
I asked him to leave and he was crushed. I also asked him for my
house key and he said he would return it if I paid him the $20.00 I owed
him for changing the oil in my car. I thought if by giving him the
$20 I could get my key and feel safe, it was worth it.
He waited in his car and I returned with a $20 in my hand. He
tried to snatch it from my grip and refused to return my key. I called
him a F--jerk!! He leaped from his car and lifted me with one
arm by my neck. I was choking. He then threw me to the ground
and began kicking me. I managed to stand up and he ran off.
I called the police and he was arrested for assault. It has currently
cost me over $5000.00 in legal fees to prosecute this guy and I feel victimized
by the legal system all over again. He will have a record when I
get through with him so services such as this one can operate to serve
us even better. Don't hesitate to check him out and listen to you
instincts.
