a good general rule to get you started is true love doesn't happen through a single profile viewing.

I started talking to my dear husband on line after I had sworn off men for awhile. We started off by talking about baptisim and church doctrine and things took off from there. I needed a worthy priesthood holder, and was lucky to have found one in him, I am now happily married and am grateful that the Lord gave me the courage to overlook my wariness and distrust of others.

There are those who live and love to prey on the emotions of others. A line from several years ago that I remember is "I love you, and I don't do that" and I had it saved in a LIAR file for a long time .... as a reminder of the insincere preditory liars who exist in this world.

To have someone express love and admiration is one thing...to be honest and sincere about it is something totally different. Have him/her checked out before becoming serious, make sure that reality is just that REAL. Anyone can claim to be someone or something they are not.

I think that everyone needs to see the wisdom in Seraphim's warning, and heed the warnings.

I havent had one of those here in a long time, but I have in other rooms. I even had a "young man of I believe 22 years of age" I believe, say he wanted me to adopt him. So he could leave Africa. Unfortunatly there are many lonely people who are looking for what they are not getting in their own area. Im glad this is here to warn others of what is going on.
