There are many forms of toxic love. One form is the kind where you love someone that can hurt or destroy you. Another kind is what you do to yourself to make the pain go away. These types of pain are written about frequently in dramas, tabloids, and self-help books. One type of toxic love is rarely written about. It is a love with someone that is over the Internet. You can't look in the person's eyes. You don't know their character or motives. They will tell you the things you want to hear. They will find out what your passions are. Your interests, dreams, and hopes. They will let you talk about your day. They will seem like your best friend. They make you believe that they will always love you. All you have to do is give your money, bank account information, or resources. They will make it up to you. Sadly, people will do this because they want to believe there are still honest and decent people. They are lonely or want to get rich quickly. The end result is devastating and can lead to bankruptcy, despair, and loss of everything you have worked for. Because the victim "allows" the scammer into their accounts, they have to pick up the pieces. There are many Internet scams out there to get people's money. One of the saddest is where someone is hoping to find love and is deceived online. The scammers' motive is to get money, property, or something else that is valuable to the person they are contacting. What is sad is that most of the victims do this willingly. They are hoping for someone or something better than what they have. This is a story that deals with one of those situations. I hope that you enjoy the story. I also hope that you will learn from our characters what this kind of love can do.
