I feel stupid
I met & have been talking to someone who’s incarcerated for about 2 months and well it’s only natural to become attached and to develop feelings after talking to them for some time. This individual told me that he needs two more years to go until he is released and promised the moon & the stars. However, my gut feeling irked me to do some research/detective work on him. Did not know his full name and background because he was very reserved about disclosing his full name, however I used my context clues and common sense to dig deeper & and find out this persons name, charges, etc.
Come to find out that this person not only lied to me about how long he will be incarcerated for, but completely sold me a dream and had me out here looking foolish asf knowing that he was sentenced to life in prison for being a violent career criminal.
I feel so stupid. I feel betrayed. Lied to. And once again jaded. I’m so glad that I found out before it was too late and before I was in too deep. I’m actually quite saddened about this..
