Tired of attracting cheats vent

Hi Sisters,
To cut a long story short I was completely duped by a guy who told me what I wanted to hear 'he wanted a relationship with me' told me he loved me called me pet names ect.. We've been talking everyday for months he begged me for videos/snapchats/facetime calls then he changed his relationship status to in a relationship recently but it said from 2 years ago!!!
Turns out he has a girlfriend😏 So I blocked him on everything. I've wasted my time, money to see this guy and I opened up to him that's pretty hard for me to do and he messaged me saying he never cared about me anyway.
Just need some faith restoration, I've been single for a quite a while and I'm a sentive soul, where exactly do you find a decent man (keeping in mind I'm not highly social nor do I live in a big town) I feel there is no one for me out there.

I'm just going to say, did you meet him face to face? It sounds like you weren't in an exclusive relationship with him, so this isn't technically cheating, although the way he treated you when he went back to his ex wasn't nice.
He was obviously talking to his ex, and probably others as well as you.
Try not to give too much too soon, make sure you've had the talk and you're in a committed relationship, take time to get to know him and begin to become a part of each other's lives, and notice red flags and look into them or walk if it's not feeling exclusive, take it slow, use your head not just your heart, and know when to walk no matter what you've put in.

Thanks for the advice. It was more so him cheating on her with me and lying to me, I had no idea they were together the whole time. We met up and I was stupid enough to sleep with him and we booked a holiday in my name so I'll be paying for it. Just feeling used. I did feel uneasy sometimes about his behaviours, I should listen more head.

Throw him back and be grateful you figured him out early, dodged a bullet. Definitely go slow and use your head next time, way too early to book holidays. I hope you still go, have some fun. Keep putting yourself out there, it's not easy to do!

Your biggest mistake was too much online stuff. Videos, Snapchat’s, FaceTime, every day messaging urghhhh....find someone local, chat a few weeks and then take it offline. Real life is the only way to judge true character. I feel ya, but don’t give up, the world needs more sensitive souls like you ❤️
