Thank You Lord for All the Friends You Have Blessed Me With... Please Shine Your Light Upon Them Always..... Amen

LW, I really feel for you, but also am happy that you found out before it was really too late, like getting him over to the US and having him dump you then.

I get approached every time I'm out alone here in Negril with the Pretty Lady, Let me show you what I can do for you, You nice and I wanna spend time wid ya. I am now laughing out loud because it happens so often. And some of these times my hair is flying and sweat is dripping down my face. Give me an effin break Jamaican Men. Quit the stories and asking for visas and money.

Hang in their Lily, better days are ahead for you, because you are a beautiful person.

Thanks Spice and JaMiss.

The first few trips, all of the attention was fun. Now, when I get off the plane and there are 4 guys standing 2 feet from the door, whistling and trying to chat me up, it nauseates me. They are such persistent little buggers!

Hang in there girl the worst is past. We all wanna feel loved and admired but we still have to listen to our emotional intelligence as well. Dat little bugger talking in the back of our heads (it's actually near the middle).

Does this mean no wedding cake this Christmas?....chocolate....just checking



Never hurts to laugh sometimes.

May you have enough happiness to make you sweet, enough trials to make you strong, enough sorrow to keep you human and enough hope to make you happy.

The happiest of people don't necessarily have the best of everything; they just make the most of everything that comes along their way. The brightest future will always be based on a forgotten past; you can't go forward in life until you let go of your past failures and heartaches.

I agree. This is what had me shaking with anger as well.

Lilly I suspected that things weren't good between you both from your posts, but I never for a moment would have thought the story went like this.....the fact that you have posted this is evidence that your are moving on, healing has started. The words in my pms were sincere and I hope you will continue to take your strength from those who truly care about you. No judges need here, no wise words either, because there but for the grace of God can go ANY OF US, as wise as we may think we are!!!.......so from one woman to the other....you hang on in there girl.....This too shall pass.

Peace and Blessings

1st

I've taken a bit longer than most to get to this thread... and knowing how private you are, how much pain this caused you, I can only say how much I admire your strength.

Again . . . thanks everybody for the support and love. Everytime I come back into this thread, my eyes "well up" with tears -- not because of what happened to me, but because of the genuineness of everybody's responses. I've never met such a great group of people. And to think, I haven't even met most of you! LOL.

I don't know why everyone had their panties in a bunch over you posting what you did. The dude's a dog. Wasn't there a TV show that aired such men (and I use that term loosely) once? Oh, and hi, I'm Mair btw (lookit me, buttin' into your stuff & not introducing myself first)

JaMiss: "Quit the stories and asking for visas and money."
Why don't they just come right out and ask ya instead of playing all the lame games in the first place?!?

I have a friend here who is well... stuck here due to visa issues & cant go back to Jamaica. (or he wont be able to come back to the states) He coulda used the moment to 'take advantage' of me, but instead he just flat out told me his situation & asked me "the question." LOL Suffice to say, it wasn't my dream marriage proposal, but I understood the situation and wasn't mad. I did decline the offer, but not after thinking HEARTILY about it.

Lilly, your story is such a bummer. By the end of reading your posts, and the posts on the other site, my jaw was sittin' on my keyboard. Absofrickenlutely amazing. I'd be glad to print off some "POISON" signs with this guys picture on it, and disburse them during my next trip to Jamaica. =)

Hello Mair -- thanks for your post. Maybe you could print up those "Poison" signs with Corey's picture on them, mail them to me . . . and I'll put them up here in ORLANDO where he'll be living!
