This is a good question. I made two horrible choices:
1. Meeting this guy who calls himself Freedom. After chatting for a few weeks on Facebook, chat and the phone we met for a date in Harlem where he is comminly seen at certain community events I am familiar with, grew up in. I felt he was a good safe person and picked him up in my car. That was dumb. After the date he asked me to drop him off on Gates ave in Brooklyn where he then tried to get me to go into some room with him. Driving him was dumb. I did not go into any room with him thank God. I should have never dated him. He is an unrepentant convict. He set me up. My social media accounts were hacked so many times I closed them all. Things were taken from my home, my car was fucked with and females began harassing me. Turns out he is one of these guys who tells women he is single but he was not. It was dumb to simply believe him. He is a plumber but likes to gain things by decieving and manipulating people. He continues to have me harassed.
2. Another guy from a support group who after some time began offering me rides home, telling me how he was single and told me about all the sick people in the group I should stay away from. Turns out he was telling people that I was coming on to him. WRONG. I was thankful for rhe rides and conversation. Thats it. He was probably the sickest one.
I thought I was safe with these guys because they were familiar to me. That was dumb. One a regular at community gatherings was nothing more than a predator. The other a regular at support meetings, another predator. Both sick men.
I've given up on men until I can evolve to the point where I won't be satisfied scraping the bottom of the barrel for men. There have to be some good, SINGLE men out there when I'm ready.
Anyway that's part of what brought me to this point.
