jidegirl12: Creepy man she needs a restraining order like thousand miles away from him and he should be banned from using specific dating sites she's registered.

greatgod2012: This is one of the numerous reasons why i dont and will never endorse internet dating.
Though, it might work for some, but the risk involved is higher.
The person you see face-to-face often misbehaves, not to talk of a faceless person.
May God help us all.

lion042: I don't believe this, does it mean that they didn't exchange pictures or what?

gluv01: ok cool...This should help them reconcile since they felt comfortable online, they should also manage comfortably themselves and close the court case.

991: you can't endure and stay married with your husband but you are happy to fall in love with a ghost(online) lover.

coputa: This story goes futher to tell us that online dating is fake and unrealistic,if you find it difficult to love the person you see physically,how much a ghost...some of these onlne friends are programmed computers..

Egba girl:

Reread the article. He created a fake profile. He prolly sent photos of another person.



She felt comfortable with "Aaron Carpenter", the person the ex-husband created and not him. He pretended to be someone he was not. Otherwise, she would have known that it was her ex no?



Sigh. She is NOT married. She is divorced. Bros read the article again.

Fhemmmy:

I dont agree, cos i could see if from the other side and say the story teaches us that before we cut the marriage certificate into 2, we could find other ways to work it out except life is in danger.
