I think the advice I've given to my kids their whole lives works wonderfully in this situation. (It worked at 7 when they loaned their toys out and didn't get them back. It worked at 16 when they were beginning to date and had to sort out the girlfriends and those who just wanted to use them, and it works at 23, when they're faced with the girls looking for marriage partners.) "Don't do what you can't pay for." He did. He got caught. He was unwilling to pay the price. He's gone. You did. Is the price that you're paying worth what you got (are getting)? If not, the next time you're getting involved with someone simply ask yourself, based on what they've told you about themselves, are they worth what you'll have to pay? (And no matter how good the relationship, you WILL have to pay a price.) If not, walk away. Somewhere along the line, you're going to meet someone who's priceless. juliet
