Re: survivor dating a man who lost a fiancee to BC

Wow, how could anyone do such a thing! I am amazed at some human beings. Good for you for giving him a piece of your mind. He should definitely have some respect for his deceased wife. Thankfully you found out the "real him" before you got even deeper with him. Good luck and there are good people (men) out there!
