Hi all!
In the end, there were one or two things I was a little uncomfortable with regarding the potential meetings. We agreed from this that it was not then worth meeting, whoever we remain friends.
I have since joined a dating website. Where I have had a few genuine profiles, but also had the scammers send me to adult web cam sites and a website called hotwinkers. I have had two people send me that link and so I assume theyare also scammers.
In January, I will be meeting a Brazilian in Lisbon. If all goes well, then great, otherwise I will stay longer on the dating site. Hoping to find some more genuine people lol
