Miracles still happen

[GORICO]

Dear fellow Zoners---some of you may remember when i shared after 40 years my wife left me in 2022....i mean being a wife and caregiver can be too much to ask

i dont blame her...but later i did feel hurt the slander and lies that were floating around....but anyway on July 30th i transfered to this assisted living house....they help

you and you live in a house with 4 other people....not over crowded, huge flat screen in your own room and i got my computer which runs off WiFi....and i only get

1550 social security disability....i have to pay 1,300 so i get to have 250 a month or my own....buy lets get to miracle...some of you remember how bummed i was

when wife left and many of you were so kind in your kind words of encouragement...anyway....a temporary care-giver came to house because one of the regulars

on short 4 day vacation....this woman named Cornima...who has over 150,000 if her own...i got 5,000....so it aint money....i am 65 she is 60 but still very beautiful

because she from Philippines....something happened and we both fell hard for each other....she cared for her husband in Philippines for 10 years while he was bed

bound and loved him and cared for him til he passed....she came here to this house she is just a sweetheart who loves down and out...she said she wants to marry

me and she has enough money for both of us.....am i getting scammed???? where???...i had someone said she will file life insurance and write in my name and

then kill me???....i cracked up so bad....you mean put me out of misery...or is this a true miracle that can occur????...i like the miracle that can occur...if cowboys

win tonight you all believe in miracles still happen

sincerely
your friened zoner

A lot to unpack here, but good luck man. I wish you well.

Kinda hard to express an informed opinion, from our vantage point, but my first thoughts would be that, either her intentions are suspect, or she has some type of savior complex.

But as I said, I don't have an informed opinion, so it's entirely possible that I'm completely wrong, and she really does love you.

I suggest you proceed with caution, and let your brain override your heart, until you can be absolutely certain.

Wherever this goes, I wish you the very best of luck.

 

[JohnnyTheFox]

Best I can say is keep your heart open but proceed with caution. Good luck fellow Cowboys fan

Tread with caution……

thanks Run....and i agree...we are taking a year...and if doors still open and going well....take the plunge

 

[GORICO]

Tread with caution……

thanks Tabascocat----i remember when wife left me 2 years ago....you gave me a post of encouragement....and i agree tread with caution....maybe this woman has a "savior complex"

well to me there are worse things....but we agreed we are taking a year and if doors still open and our word still holds true....then we may take the plunge....bless you mr tobascocat

by the way i love hot sauce.....i got this ghost pepper hot sauce....its real hot but good flavor too....just bring hot wet towel to wipe off alll the sweat

thank you Johnny----appreciate the encouragement and yes must proceed with caution...Johnny the dating pool for me is more like the Sahara desert....not feeling sorry for myself

but come on man.....i am 65...broke and very crippled....not the kind of things you put in your "bio" in a dating pool....but in Philippines there is no health insurance...if you want to

go to good hospital you must pay all out of pocket....she spent 100's of thousands on her husband who had severe diabetes...she showed me pictures where they little by little

amputated legs arms ....he went blind....he had to go 3 times a week to dialysis which was a 1000 every time....and she just bathed him and cared for him and loved him til he passed..

i might agree she has a care-givers heart or savior complex.....but there are worse things...i mean she is beautiful she pursued me and says can you just believe i love you...plu

many women in Philippines really like men that are American or European....and then to watch our cowboys on last play of game win it...was like big cherry on top ...Go Cowboys

i just believe Miracles still happen....and i pray a big one comes to you too Johnny...dont know what?....or when?....but it happens

BTW, have you seen evidence that she took care of her husband that way, or are you just going by what she's told you?

GORICO, I'm sorry to hear about your circumstances. Kind of sounds like a Golden Girls situation with big screen TVs. By the way, how big is that TV?

As for your lady, from a female perspective, she could be religious and feels the need for marriage to justify the desire. Or she could have a complex over the desire brought on by family, friends and the general public talking down about women. Believe it or not it's still out there and going strong. Those are a couple of reasons to want to be married. I honestly don't know if they are true, but I'm putting them out there for consideration.

I wish you the very best and since the Cowboys won, things are looking up.

Just don’t give it a double platinum guarantee, bud!

Follow your heart, man. Sure, she could be scamming and planning your demise, but what does your heart tell you? Can you see yourself being happy with her until the day you die? Can you see yourself making HER just has happy?

I know a guy that moved to the Philippines recently to marry a woman there. She spent all of his money on the wedding rather than a house and was furious after finding that out. I'm not saying your love interest is like that, especially since she has more money, but be careful, just not at the expense of listening to what your heart tells you.

He's among friends, and maybe it's easier to talk to people here than to people he has to see every day.

Gorico first of all glad to see you are doing better and settled in your new living situation.

Regarding your new potential romance, as RunWild has said, I would urge caution as well. After a relationship breakup like you experienced you may be vulnerable to someone coming along quickly and wowing you.

Obviously I know nothing specific about your lady friend but let me offer this advice: Go slow. If she’s for real, she will be patient. If she’s not for real, they usually push for things to happen quickly. Good relationships need time to test their value.

All the best to you sir.

mr Rub...pictures of her and him on her phone

sorry i called you mr Rub when i meant mr Run

 

[Xelda]

Mr. Rubby isn't dignified like Mr. Runny. However, allowances must be made since the B and D are next to each other on the keyboard.

If you think it's weird just move on, no commentary needed.
