Romance scam #6

Romance scam #6

He’s going to send money to ANOTHER FUCKING SCAMMER and I can’t stop him despite a year of hell and finally having a POA.

Yes, I know I need guardianship. But I’ve already been doing this FOR A YEAR. And I have to get a doctor to sign off. She didn’t want to do it when I first asked. Try POA first, not far enough along, who knows. And now we can’t see the neurologist again until July. And then it would be 3-4 months after that to get guardianship.

If he even agrees to go back to the neuro at all.

I am so, so tired. I want to just cut him loose. He would certainly rather not have me around. I’m the obstacle to his eternal happiness with the endless procession of non-existent beautiful young women promising to marry him and demanding money.

But he is already poor. The roof is leaking. What happens when he loses everything except the house and can’t pay the bills? If that happens on my POA watch, did I fail? Am I responsible?

He has “early dementia” but refuses to believe it. Claims I orchestrated the diagnosis and tricked the doctor into it.

I am exhausted. I would be content to never see him again but there is so much work to DO—fix the roof, file the years of back taxes, sell the crap, settle the dead wife’s estate, get the house in a trust—and with him kicking and screaming and trying to throw away money to criminals every step of the way.
