Love is blind (or should I say lust is blind).

They say a fool and his money are soon parted.

From now on, they will say a fool and his life are soon parted.

Too much thinking with the little head.

The woman will get 5 years, the men 35.

Nothing good could happen from the Brasilian "romance". Once, more than 30 years ago, a student in my class got himself a Brasilian girlfriend. And although we had warned him, he oversexed to such a point that his skin cracked, he ended up in the infirmary and we went there to visit him, and [we were laughing, he was not] even brought him some fruit there, if memory serves.

I met my wife on the Internet, but things worked out much better than for this guy. I talked with a few psychos also, you have to pick up on the hints. I would think asking for money might be a sign someone has an ulterior motive.

"Instead, he was drugged and held captive for six days at his fiancee's home while she and another man emptied his bank accounts, according to Brazilian authorities."


An extreme case of an event that is sadly not uncommon. Americans are walking ATM's in the eyes of much of the third world, and the hustlers line up to fleece the unsuspecting. You can't buy love, but it doesn't stop these poor saps from trying.


BTW, odds are the "other man" was her boyfriend/husband as well as her accomplice.
