Hmm.. In the beginning there actually was no lead. I really
never had the intention to meet a girl from the website I joined, when I did. It was a slow process at first.. getting to know and trust each other (and indeed, if there's
one professional advice I would give her now, it is not to trust guys from those kinds of websites - glad she did though
).
At some point, I was about to visit some family in a neighbouring country, and that's when the meeting idea came up.
I think it was my idea to meet in the first place - but only a quick visit on my way back from my family. She suggested I could stay at her place for a little while, so I guess it worked both ways.

I think I'm pretty good at reading a person's feelings and intentions and I have absolutely no reason to doubt her's. But of course, that goes for everyone who has ever been scammed.
However, because of the things that have happened, how it happened and things we've done, I am 100% confident that it's real.
And you're right, in the very unlikely case it turns out the other way, I've still had the best months of my life.

I know full well that if it wasn't for my money, she would not look twice at me. By the same token, if she looked the arse of a dog, I would not be with her, so we are scamming each other I suppose. The price you pay for meeting a bargirl from the Philippines!
Maybe after all it's better to have an unequal relationship in which you are both happy and satisfied, rather than an equal one with a lot to be desired for both sides. But maybe that's way too simplified..
