disclaimer : this is a rant on my part, and though i know very few people here, i need to publicly vent my frustrations, please flame me not for this, if this type of thread annoys you then just click somewhere else.

a long while ago i posted some threads on here wanting to join what seemed to be an active and thriving community. make some friends. you know the kind of thing.

my gf, saw the title (literotica) and totally freaked. so i stopped it. fair enough. i have stopped many things for her, why not some forum ?

it started a while ago, when we first met. i was a a sad and lonely individual, ill be totally honest, a virgin, desperately searching everywhere for the one for me, my soul mate.

and then one day i found her, on aol of all places. i chatted to her, and lo and behold after several very nervous fone calls we met up.

i fell straight away in love with her. blew my mind. i treated her like a goddess, doing everything for her, paying for everything for her, her ever whim my only goal.

i guess it must have started slowly, i never noticed it. the first was when she saw girls names on my icq list. she said she didn't want me to talk to any girls online. with out question i got a new icq number and lost, i am sad to say, several very close friends.

the next time i can remember was when she met my best friend. my best friend, the redhead lesbian goth queen. this girl had been closer to me than anyone. needless to say my soulmate told me she hated her, and i was to stop seeing her. this time i protested, and she threatened to break it all off with me. i argued, and then she said she would kill herself if i didn't do as she asked. so i stopped talking to her. a year ago i found out that my redhead lesbian goth queen had got her business degree and was doing work experience at the world trade center, when that awful atrocity was committed. my parents told me this, they had been close friends with her parents. I was devastated, i had simply stopped talking to this girl because my soulmate had told me not to. I felt so terribly guilty, as un-manly as it is, i cried. this show of emotion did not go down well with my soulmate, who again threatened suicide if i was to show emotion about her again. i complied.

when my soulmate and i first met, we got intimately very quickly. i was totally in-experienced and had no idea about how quickly things like this would develop. after two months, we never had sex again. was i a fool to miss it ? something i had seeked for so long, i had, was i selfish to want it more ? that was about three years ago.

three years i have put up with this abuse, this constant threat of her death if i was to not do as she said. blinded in the faith that she was my soulmate, the one to be with me forever.

going away from the emotions, the more physical world: i am a computer programmer, i have programmed from a very young age, it is one of the few things i excel at (that and song writing and performance) and as such i do earn a lot from it. i noticed about a week ago that my savings account was totally empty. with faith i had given my soulmate permission to withdraw from it. needless to say where on earth two years earnings have gone, along with some inheritance, i have no idea.

i raised this with her, and she told me that i didn't trust her and she stormed out. i tried to find her, and when i couldn't i rang the police, who told me they could do nothing at the moment. I rang round all her friends, and eventually traced her to one of her friends house. she answered the phone, out of breath, told me go away, in no uncertain terms and slammed the phone down on me. only it wasn't down. i heard enough to realise why she had been out of breath. devastated i turned up at my parents.

my parents looked after me that night, and in the morning my soulmate rang me. apparently my dad had sent her a text saying what had happened. she was so apologetic, saying that she had got drunk and had no idea of what was happening. so i forgave her. that was about a week ago.

this morning she said she was spending the week at her parents house at they had gone on holiday and wanted her to house sit. fine i said. after everything, i still trusted her.

she always had trouble sleeping alone, so after a hard day at work i thought i would walk round there. it was dark when i got there, and she had the light on and was walking around in an incredibly stunning underwear. i had asked her so many times to wear such clothing, totally understanding it would be for just my benefit, and she had refused saying it was perverse... i got a slap when i asked for photos of her in just normal underwear. imagine the voyeuristic pleasure i got from watching her in those clothes through the net curtains. until i noticed she was with a naked man.

needless to say, i have just come back from a very very heavy drinking session. i dont expect to see her until the end of the week, when she finishes whatever sordid thing she is doing. then will come the questions i guess. not something i am going to like at all.

in retrospect i look back and see what has happened. i have been played like a total and utter fool, and i was played with a smile on my face. i gave and gave and gave. and now i am totally spent.

i went on several forums and irc communities which my "soulmate" and i shared. seems she has been telling everyone about me. so now i can't show my face on them. my entire online life has been totally damaged (in retrospect of course, how many of my cyber-buddies could i call friends after them not telling me what she had been saying). she had been perfectly candid to several people i classed as my closest online friends. all men, ofc, all so it seem who had naked photos of her ... they had been laughing at me all this time.

im laughing now. it seems so weird, so unbelievable, this sordid little mess my life has become.

now why do i post this essay ? well writing helps, to vent this kind of thing feels incredibly good. read it if you want. learn the lessons. i wish i had. this is not a cry for help or anything like that, so please don't get worried about me killing myself (ive read posts like this which worried me) i have just started a new job which i plan to totally immerse myself in.

im not upset. im not angry. im just numb. sorry if you consider this spam.
 
Dude....try getting one of these.

No offense meant. Just a helpful suggestion.
 
it happens to everyone...it may be hard right now but life does go on! perhaps this in one respect will make you a bit wiser...a bit stronger
 
And dude....one more thing...never, Never EVER....fall in love with your first piece of ass. Best advice ever I got as a young man. Nothing but trouble.

And sorry for my last reply seeming so mean.:)
 
What a horrible thing for anyone to have to go through. Thank you for posting it, that someone else might learn from your story before going through the same ordeal.
 
Get a lawyer. Good advice.

And that's not spam.


Welcome back to Lit, by the way.
 
Been there.

Many people here will no doubt tell you, from hard won experience:

Sever all ties with this person.

This is the best advice you can get. If you don't do this, you are signing up for more.

Hard to prevail in trying to recoup what was taken from accounts.......as he gave her permission and access to his accounts........

Even if she was not true to him, he still gave her the money.......and to overcome this presumption in a lawsuit is going to be a hard go.

Not everything is resolved by lawsuit.

Did she steal?

well morally she did........legally is kind of hard to prove.

It isnt worth pursuing in the legal arena.

True, but it will put her on notice and perhaps she won't respond and he'll get a summary judgement.

If nothing else, I suspect he'll get a damn good lesson in the ramifications of his decisions.

I would also recommend counseling. Predators can't prevail without victims.

Some people use the word "toxic" to describe the kind of person your so-called soulmate is. Get her out of you life and *keep* her out of your life. That might be hard, and I know that since I have had a couple of these relationships before. It was very hard not to give in later when they came back very apologetic, and I was an idiot to give them another chance.

I find coding very theraputic. Something to immerse myself in so I do not have to think about the ex's when they get to me.

I wish you luck in dealing with her.
 
thank you all. this has helped more than any of you could imagine. i didn't mind the spine thing even, it is, on the face of it totally true. i have let her walk all over me. i have a week to sort things out and i have just spent 20 minutes talking to a friends father who happens to be a lawyer ( totally understanding i woke him up at this hour, nice guy) ... he has given me several different options. the money alas i am not sure i can get back with a fight. however, as i own the house totally, she is pretty much homeless when she gets back.

again thank you all. i am currently (as if u wanted to know) looking and reading wonderful pornography, desperatly chatting up complete strangers and posting here, all things i havent done for a very very long time !

as hard as it is i AM going to move on, i am resolute in this. for the third and final time ill say thankyou :) <-- real smile
 
Well, whatever you decide to do, good luck to you.

I am inclined to agree w/ Siren and encourage you to not pursue the money. It will only keep her in your life for much, much longer. Consider the financial loss (as great as it may be) a lesson hard but well learned, and move on. Just my opinion.

I am sure it is devastating to feel so used. But remember, although you have to accept some responsibility for allowing it to happen, SHE is the person who has really done wrong here and it is not about YOUR worth as a human being.

And, really, you must immediately banish the word 'soulmate' from your vocabulary.
 
Siren,

I went back and read the original post. He didn't specify whether she was a joint account holder or not.

If she wasn't and he didn't withdraw the money and hand it to her, there is the possibility that she indeed did pilfer the account.

re read it again Ishmael.........

he gave her permission..........and no restrictions.

"i noticed about a week ago that my savings account was totally empty. with faith i had given my soulmate permission to withdraw from it. needless to say where on earth two years earnings have gone, along with some inheritance, i have no idea. "

Yep, went right by that.

That money's gone dude. And I hate to break this news to you too. The three years you weren't getting laid? She was.
