Default Advice required on DR guy I met on holiday

Hi
I met a DR guy 3 months ago whilst I was on holiday, nothing has happened between us but we have been in contact almost everyday since I have been back in the UK. I have been debating about going back to see him just to see if there is anything truely there between us, but after reading all the posts on this website, I have started to feel like an idiot being sucked into the romance.
The guy was a hotel worker and I am an educated woman with a good career in the UK, should I go back over to see what happens or should I wake up that I am just being played by this guy.

Any advice greatly received.

If you're aware enough to feel that way you are NOT an idiot

IF you go back, go to another hotel, have fun and then walk away.

You've probably read enough to realize that playing people is what these Sankies and Sankiettes do. It's a lucrative career.

They are world class liars.

I would say follow your heart but be VERY careful! I have a boyfriend from D.R and i truely believe he is genuine but i have heard soooo many times where it goes wrong for these reasons: Most guys are after getting visa, most guys have many girls from different countrys but the girl doesnt know this and thinks shes his only girlfriend! In the end the guy will pick the girl who gives him best chance of getting visa. I know this because my boyfriend told me nearly almost all the guys he knows there say this to him! I would say the ways to tell if hes genuine is: he will never ask for money or gifts from you, he wont mention going to your country, you can get hold of him easy when you call he always answers or if not calls you back soon! Also if he wants you to go to his home town this should proove he doesnt already have wife or girlfriend from there. Maybe go back have fun. see what happens and take it from there..... only you will know?? there are some positive stories on here too!!

Don't follow your heart it will get you in trouble every time. Follow common sense and gut feeling. Women have a great gift which is our intuition and when you are posting and asking it means you are already feeling something wrong besides what you read here. It's a shame that most will never follow their intuitions.

If you have an iota of sense, get out as fast as possible....

Default Advice required

If you are asking for advice on a public forum, then you already know the answer! That bright intelligent woman doesn't need any of us to explain how things work. Use the gifts you have been given and be grateful that you had an exciting holiday and move on. Perhaps try another destination next vacation and see what other parts of the world have to offer.
If in spite of yourself, see Hillbilly for some investment information!!!! lol!!!
