LETTER TO LOVEFRAUD: Deception from the first encounter, and every single day thereafter

sad and stressed womanEditor’s note: Lovefraud received the following letter from a reader who posts as “amille2.”

When my boyfriend……….or should I say the man I thought was my boyfriend………..walked out the door a couple of days ago, I told him I felt like I had been sucker punched. He replied, “No, you haven’t” and shut the door.

Just two days before that, I read his wife/girlfriend?’s grandmother’s obituary whereby he was listed as the husband/significant other.

After 30 years with a sociopath, she’s now having the time of her life

Spath TalesEditor’s note: Lovefraud received the following story from a 67-year-old woman whom we’ll call “Maura.”

Lied, cheated, used me and others. Serial adultery, pornography, probable bisexual behaviors, never used condoms. I didn’t know about the adultery until much later.

He suffered a head injury, and I mistakenly attributed his bad behaviors to that. Violent and aggressive.

Marital fraud; some possessions, like a boat and trailer, “disappeared.” Claimed money and objects were stolen, but never reported thefts to the police.

Nagged and pestered me constantly to buy large items, mostly vehicles, that we couldn’t afford.

Do you speak psychopath? navigating and exposing disordered communication

Anyone who has ever been on the receiving end of disordered communication knows that it can produce an array of madness and negativity. That’s the point, after all. But, the more experience we have with it, the more we learn that it is all the same. The players may change, but the messages remain identical. Identifying the fact that the correspondence is, in fact, disordered is the first step to handling it positively. The next is to learn to read between the lines of the written word vomit to understand the actual meaning. When we can, it’s liberating.

Married to a sociopathic pastor for 55 years

Spath TalesEditor’s note: Lovefraud received the following email from a reader whom we’ll call “Caroltta.”

I am 72 ”¦ was married 12/60 ”¦ found out in 1/14 my husband, a pastor for 45 yrs., committed adultery @ every pastorate. In fact, he says he has no idea how many x’s & does not remember all the women.

There was incest involved in his promiscuous life. He considered divorce for many of his women, but knew he could not preach after that, so his last girlfriend convinced him to murder me & they had a plan which did not work out because I told him I was retiring & he could come with me or not.

She’s baaaack!!! Lovefraud first wrote about Bobbi Ann Finley almost five years ago, in September 2010.

Finley had a habit of hanging around military bases, meeting servicemen, marrying them, and wiping out their bank accounts.

When we first wrote about Finley, she’d married 14 men and had at least nine children with almost as many fathers. She was so infamous that she was profiled on ABC’s 20/20.

In 2011 Finely was convicted of fraud. She was sentenced to three years in an Alabama prison.
