When to tell Long Distant SO about denture

Sorry mawbroon just seen I duplicated your post at least we re on the sane hymn sheet so to speak

Catholic’s don’t have Padres a little slip on your part there I’m even more sceptical now

Padre?

Are you in the Armed Forces?

Sorry, but I am sceptical, Catholics talk about their priest.

Thank you everyone for your wise counsel!!!...agree 100%, a little insight on me. I am a cyber security professional and yes the first thing I did was check her background for any signs of "catfishing" or "scamming"...I am catholic and my padre asked about her and to his surprise so did hers...her padre asked about me!...they talked... So, she is who she says she is...one of the reason I let my guard down to be honest, at first I was hoping to find something because its too good to be true and you know the saying "if its that good, is probably not true...". and yes she was willing to pay for my ticket down there...don't get me wrong, she is NOT PERFECT by any means...so, will see where this goes I am just going to have fun and yea..."“keep your hand on your ha’penny!" Thanks again for everyone responses...

I'm looking forward to What2do coming back to say how well it all turned out, that she was genuine and lovely, and repaid his air-fare money......and.......

Well, you can live in hope, eh?

I think the OP is heading for a fall. Forget about his false teeth, I am more worried about his bank account and savings.

They say there is no fool like an old fool.

Can you see where we are all going with our questions OP?

Did you send your "friend" the money for the ticket or did you actually pay the airline direct?

Don't mean to be nosey but how much was the ticket.

You could end up with teeth like a witch-doctors necklace or minus teeth and money.

Alarm bells ring here not being cynical lets wait and see if she turns up or suddenly developes a poorly relative who needs medical expenses paying or similar before she can visit.
Forget about your dentures and worry about your bank balance.

Don't offer to pay for anything else I have a feeling your dentures are the least of your worries!

My Children always paid for my tickets to visit them , but not now , I am Ms Moneybags
speaking of children , my Grandchildren are off School for the summer , Two are heading for Harris to a Gallic summer school

I am relieved I am not the only cynic here

The alarm bells are ringing here also. If she is working why did she not buy her own ticket?

Everything should be 50/50 and if it is not, why not?

Ohhh, thanks Nfk.

I am a bit doubtful about all this, including the being shut out.

Aha Resurgam just read “Good Morning” thread. No I’ve not been shut out of GN but FB has been iffy on my phone and I can no longer access our local paper on it. It’s an Huawei. Perhaps things will improve now Donald says its OK!

There are many stories about people being conned through on line dating sites but few of the success stories make headlines. And there are a lot of success stories. So good luck What2do. Have a lovely time with your lady and don’t worry. (And as *Bradfordlass says “keep your hand on your ha’penny!)

Resurgam123 have you been shut out?

I agree with Bradfordlass and others urging caution. Have you tried googling her photo and name? There's no fool like an old(ish) fool.

Oh thank God for that i thought I was shut out again.

Oh dear why do I get warning bells ringing here
If you are both working why didn’t she buy her own ticket over, it’s her holiday Would she pay yours to go there ?
How do you know she’s a wonderful woman? you have only heard her side of the story she could be telling you any old sh1t You Have no idea who she is
Sorry to rain on your parade but don’t let your heart and other organs lead your head I think your dentures are the last thing to worry about

Be VERY careful at spending money on someone you have NEVER met. Watch out for ‘...excited to be seeing you but need more money because...’ texts too. ?

You paid for the ticket ? Why ? Surely she should at the very least pay half. Please be careful.

Esspee - We both are working professionals, so since she took her vacation time I paid for the ticket.
