She does. Just revealed my crusading ways, and well she thinks I�m mad as a hatter..... I explained everything. "She don get id." Even when I explained how close we were to getting ripped, she still don�t get it..... My only resort hard facts. The ABC report on youtube is about as damning as it gets, as is the BBC version. Jeez does everyone in Nigeria pack or what.
Has anyone had any similar partner type issues................ R.S.V.P

Show her some of Shiver's work. That's what worked for me. Now she can even be persuaded to take the occasional phone call, acting the suspicious wife part.
And menacing alien bounty hunter or not, prepare for a grammar-slap from someone. There are jedi on staff. Rabbis too. |

Only one of my girlfriends and the guy that cuts my hair knows about my scambaiting. Everyone else would not understand so I keep quiet about it. Your girfriend's reaction is not unusual. I'm unsure how long I would wait to tell a new boyfriend about my hobby. "Sweetie, sit down, I have something to tell you." |

My family is totally disgusted. I get the 'two wrongs don't make a right' lecture whenever I try to present myself as a crime fighter. Even my friends who are mildly curious and ask me about certain characters that I've mentioned, are appalled that I'd represent myself to be an airhead heiress, a crack head, a psychic, a cripple in a wheel chair and a Mormon nun. My own mother is pissed at me cuz I keep killing her in my baits. She dies a lot anyway.
Normal people just don't understand. But they also don't have as much fun. |

You are. We all are. Think about it. We waste untold hours fighting a war we cannot win, against an enemy we cannot see, to protect people we do not know.
Does that sound like a sane hobby to you? |

@ B. A. Ware: Dude, that explanation of our hobby/arm chair sport was nucking futs ey! Best one I've seen yet.
@ the OP: Yeah I get crazy looks, but not from the sig. other. I get it from my family. My mom and dad worries that I'll have someone show up at my front door with a big machete (I've tried so many ways to tell them that nothing will happen I use gmail blah blah blah... nothing clicks with them). My sis says I'm nuts and a loser and to go spend more meaningful time outside. My friend that does know is neutral. The one coworker that does know has given me a few ideas. My ex thought I was funny, but totally off the rocker. She came around eventually with more of a "don't bait on my router" type of deal. |

Recommended reading for those secondary RL folks who don't get it:
http://forum.419eater.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=119539
Do we play with these scumbags? Yes. Waste their time and resources getting them to chase dollars they will never see? Yes. Humiliate them in public as often as possible? Yes. Get their real bank accounts and fake websites closed down as fast as we can? Hell, yes! WOW, we really are bullies, making fun of people just trying to make a living.... NOT!
OTOH- Do the posts in that thread describe the situation of some real live victims when they fall for these scams? Unfortunately, yes. I will include two RL examples of just how much damage these scammers can do:
1. A very nice, albeit quite poor, lady who fell for a romance scam. She cashed a check for her "finacee", and wound up having to repay the bank thousands of dollars out of her minimum wage salary. She was barely getting along before this scammer came along, and it will take her years to climb out of the financial hole her "true love" dropped her into. This scammer not only buried her financially, he also completely destroyed her self-esteem, a common double whammy. He literally left her a wreck, emotionally and financially.
MUCH worse...
2. A man in the States who fell for a lotto scam. He was out of work, and his son had been diagnosed with cancer. No insurance, and he couldn't afford the treatments. Desperate, he opened an email about winning the lottery... and wound up sending off nearly a month's grocery money to the scammers via WU. He cried on the phone when he was told that it was all a scam and the money was gone.
Any questions? |
