Tell me I’m an idiot
Been talking with my “girlfriend “ online for 6 months now. Everything has been fine. She’s been legit and great. Smart, beautiful, funny. I am her second foreigner boyfriend. Her ex visited often, met the family, and went fine for a couple years, but she broke it off after she said he hit her. Not sure if true, but everything she always tells me checks out. We VC often and I’ve talked to her family and friends. I’m just concerned because she took a job as a domestic helper and hated it, then she asked for 10k because she took an advance on her pay to buy a washer for her family and would have to work 1.5 months to work off the 10k before they would let her go home. She says they work her very hard and she is exhausted. She said she took the advance because she didn’t want to ask me for it. So I gave her the 10k plus the bus fare home from Manila. I am 61 and American, she is 33. Am I being an idiot here? Also, I am planning to visit soon but we have never met in person.
