56M – Someone recommended I post here. I’m not really an internet person, but I’m hoping someone can help.
I’m a 56-year-old man, and to be honest, I rarely use the internet or social media. A friend recommended Reddit and said that if anyone might have advice or be able to point me in the right direction, it would be the people here.
Last year, I was engaged to the woman I believed was the love of my life. We were planning our wedding and talking about spending the rest of our lives together. She was sweet, caring, and always seemed to look after me. I trusted her completely.
A few months before we were supposed to get married, she came to me in tears and told me she was struggling with debt. She pleaded with me to help her. Because I loved her and believed we were building a future together, I gave her the money she needed.
Then, out of nowhere, she disappeared.
She stopped answering my calls and messages, and I haven’t seen or heard from her since. I never got an explanation or even a goodbye.
The money hurts, but it’s not what keeps me awake at night. It’s the fact that I lost the woman I loved without ever understanding why. Part of me still hopes she’s okay, and part of me just wants answers.
I’m posting here because I don’t know what else to do. If anyone has advice on how I might be able to find her, or has been through something similar, I’d really appreciate hearing from you.
Thank you for taking the time to read this.
