A Singaporean man believed that love is giving everything he has. He said that he was playing an online game and fall in love with an Indonesian girl and said that he is truly in love and he will eventually marry her.
Here is the story:
I have a 27-year-old friend that is quite dumb and I have tried everything to help him. I am out of ideas and therefore posting my story here hoping that someone can offer some advice.
He met the girl online playing some mobile game and eventually they started chatting more and more and they met once in Batam. After meeting once he told me that the girl was willing to be his girlfriend, he told me that she would not even let him hold his hand. Before leaving Batam, he gave all the cash he had on him including both Rupiah and Singapore dollars.
They continued to chat on a daily basis and the girl started to demand more, She instructed my friend to transfer 90% of his monthly salary to her as she claims that she will help “save up” for their wedding in the future.
He agreed and transfer the money monthly to her and on some occasions when the girl needed more money he will tap into his savings to “help” her.
He eventually wipe out his savings and told my other friends and I that he could not afford to eat a simple dinner with us at a coffeeshop. He then told us the story about the girl. Till today he has only met her twice and they did not even hold hands and of course nothing more.
Everyone tried to stop him but he claims that the girl was in love with him and he believes her. Even his parents cant stop his foolishness. Some of my friends even suggested that he kana gong tao (black magic).
