our daughter met a guy online. when he started calling she told us she met him locally at work. she claims she is in love with him. he came into town this week by bus (she paid for his ticket) with not a cent. he has no ids, no birth certificate, no social security number so he can't get a job.
she broughy him to our home at 11:00 p.m. on thursday and we allowed him to stay the night. (that's how we found out about no ids). we called his mom to see if she could help by getting him ids.
long story short, on friday morning our son dropped them off in town so he could look for a job while waiting for ids. somehow they got my bank card and took $400 that they used to buy 2 bus tickets to california.
this is so out of character for her. she volunteers in the community, never misses work,is a Christian. she told me that he promised that he'd go to church with her.
one of his friends from calif instant messaged us to look for this guy. i told him they left for calif and he said how this guy just uses girls to get their money and when they won't work for him anymore he moves on. matter of fact at any time he has 3 or 4 girls that he woos online. my daughter told him that she owns a house (but it's not yet in her name).
his mother called me to say the "kids" were coming to her house and that my daughter is pregnant whichi doubt. she only just met this guy face-to-face this week. his mom told me not to worry cause she'll get my daughter a "union" job at the grocery store so that she can have medical, etc. when I asked her what about her son working she told me he's just not a motivated person but if my daughter could get him to go to work that would be great.
our daughter is obviously confused by this man's advances and tricks. i am praying God's protection around her,that He would love her through me and that she will hurry up and come back home. she gave up her job, college, friends, family for this guy that she believes will marry her. when i asked him what his intentions were he said "i love her." when i asked if he planned on marrying her he replied "hey, we'll see what happens." she later told us that once she left the room she asked him why he said that and he told her he just didn't want to tell us.
this is so out of character for her. she is 21. i realize that legally she has a right to do as she pleases but we are still her parents and have an obligation to her. i can't have her arrested for using the bank card. that would no doubt alienate her even more and i don't want to leave her with a record.
please pray with me that the Holy Spirit will convict her to leave this situation and that Satan would take his hands off this beautiful child of ours. she knows we love her. thank you.
